Careers
Do the best work of your career. Twice.
We hire fewer than one percent of applicants and give them the most consequential systems on earth to build.
How we work
Decades, not quarters
We optimize for the system's tenth year, not its first demo. Longevity is a design input.
Truth over theater
No fabricated metrics, no vanity dashboards, no status meetings that replace status. Evidence or silence.
Craft is strategy
Quality compounds. The difference between good and excellent engineering is the entire margin.
Small teams, hard problems
We hire rarely and deliberately. Ten people who own a problem outperform a hundred who attend it.
What you get
Top-of-market compensation, reviewed annually against the market — not against last year
Work from any Algoryq city; relocation supported
A hardware and learning budget you don't have to ask permission to spend
Six weeks minimum leave, and leadership that visibly takes it
How hiring works
Four steps, two weeks end to end, feedback at every stage. We respect your time the way we'd want ours respected.
01
Introduction
A 30-minute conversation about what you've built and what you want to build. No riddles, no trivia.
02
Craft session
Real code from real systems — you review ours, we review yours. Pairing, not performing.
03
Systems interview
One hard problem from our actual backlog, worked together on a whiteboard. We're hiring judgment, not memorized patterns.
04
Decision
An answer within five business days, with reasons either way. Every candidate gets feedback — it's the work we'd expect from ourselves.
