Are you the right fit?
You’re the right fit if you’re passionate about technology. For example, you taught yourself Python last weekend. You forked Angular on GitHub, fixed a bug, and submitted a pull request. Tonight, you’ll start coding that mobile app you’ve been conceptualizing in your free time. If you can relate, then you’ll fit right in. We’re passionate about technology too, and we enjoy working as a team to solve new challenges and ship product.
