Our team's values

Transparency: We discuss everything openly within the team. Our 'Speak up' culture is strong.

Learn from failures: It's ok to fail, learn from it and try again.

Experiment things: Being free is part of our DNA, we can try things as long as it brings value.

Code quality: Tests are as important as code is.

Caring is sharing: We believe in continuous learning and want you to be proud of what you've learned/built. Sharing is a natural part of the process.

What will be your role?

You will help us build internal products and native mobile app features that enable Heetch to provide a world-class support experience. How about joining us to build the foundation of a Data Science feature such as Sentiment Analysis in a whole new Care platform?
