A sharp eye for mobile UX, animations, and performance.
Bonus: experience with web frameworks like Remix.js or React Router.

Our Values
Have Integrity. We care deeply about our why and it won't jeopardise our how.

Raise the Bar. We continuously look to push past good enough. Expect more, move faster, and never stop raising the standard.
Play to Win. We exist because we decided to say no to the norm — now we do this every day.
