Build what doesn’t exist yet

What this round is about

We look for someone the company's goal motivates, not the job title, and fitting our values matters as much as fitting the role.

We talk and align on goals daily, and expect high ownership in between: challenging colleagues, owning what the company needs rather than what your job description says, and, at this stage of the company, enjoying more than 20% of your time on work completely outside your function.

How to prepare

Work out what culture and way of working you want, then test us against it: how you want to work with colleagues, how often you want to talk. That is as much your question as ours.

Expect the common interview questions (opens in a new tab), asked for specifics: what you want to get better at, why a start-up over a corporate, research or consulting job, where you see yourself in five years. Be tangible. A job title, an industry, a project, a date.

What this round is about

Reasoning and way of working matter more to us than hard facts, because facts can be learned on the job.

You meet the team in person and work a problem taken directly from the job, not a puzzle.

How to prepare

Do a practice run at home. Here, think out loud, state your approach before you work it, make your assumptions explicit, and sanity-check your numbers.

Take two or three minutes to think before you answer, and use the whiteboard or the paper in front of you. We would rather watch you work than hear a fast answer.

What this round is about

We are after a genuine two-way yes, never a reluctant one. A doubt you name out loud is welcome here, not a weakness.

If it is a match we move quickly and put everything on the table, so you can decide fully informed.

How to prepare

Ask anything, ideally as soon as possible.

If you are unsure about something you have to decide, say so. Then talk to whoever you need to, and decide with conviction.
