We're a small, senior team building Zipline - the connector engine that quietly moves billions of rows for teams that can't afford to lose a message. No noise, no hype, just durable infrastructure.
These aren't posters in a kitchen. They're how decisions get made when nobody's watching.
The interesting code is the code that keeps running. We optimize for the boring middle of the night, not the demo.
Every hire is expected to ship like a senior engineer on day one. We trust each other to own end-to-end and move without a queue.
If a benchmark or postmortem is on the line, we link the dashboard. Vibes are not a substitute for P99 latency.
Engineers do support rotations. The fastest way to design a good API is to watch someone fail to use the bad one.
Decisions live in async docs. Meetings are for things async can't resolve. Your time is yours.
Reliability work counts as feature work. Refactors that nobody sees are still real progress.
We're remote across time zones. There are no standups. Calls happen when async stops working. We work in 6-week cycles with a 2-week cool-down - heavily inspired by Shape Up.
If you've shipped something hard and want to chat - even casually - we're genuinely interested. No pitch, no funnel.
