Working at
CommandBar
Working at CommandBar means building beautiful software and working side-by-side with some of the world’s most forward-thinking software companies to unleash their users.
CommandBar Commandments
The Commandments are the guardrails we all work by; we believe embodying them will increase the odds we're successful in our mission of unleashing billions of users and being a fulfilling place to work (very related goals!).
We are scouts
Scouts seek truth, not being right. We don’t make decisions based on impulses or what we want to be true. We form hypotheses, make decisions, and then aggressively seek new evidence to disprove those hypotheses for next time. This requires keeping a low ego.
We build nice things
We sell software that delights end users and makes them say “wow how did I live without this feature”. We continuously sweat details that other companies wouldn’t (and probably shouldn’t) throughout our company (not just product), prototype aggressively, and preach user delight.
We seek out ownership
We’ve decided to keep our team intentionally small. That means everyone on the team has a high level autonomy and is held to equally high standards. Every project is an opportunity to be excellent and earn more scope.
We work urgently
We believe acting with haste and course correcting is (almost) always better than waiting for the perfect time or endlessly strategizing. To move faster, we aggressively try to learn from history (our own own and others’), post-mortem, delete requirements wherever possible, and start with the simplest answer.
We keep it light
Startups are full of super high highs and low lows. Our number one priority is growing CommandBar, and to keep ourselves energized, we have fun while doing it and care about about making CommandBar a place where everyone feels welcomed, respected, and valued.
Open roles
We’re looking to bring on board team members who are as excited as we are about crafting unforgettable software, want to work hard to have impact measured in billions of users, and will actively participate in shaping a culture that helps everyone thrive and contribute.
We believe in benefits that respect individual choice and reflect the fact that optimizing your life outside of work leads to better performance at work.
Tools to help you work
We equip all our employees with a new laptop and a stipend to support a purchase of a monitor, keyboard, desk chair - anything else that will empower your best work.
