Mission
Build the most critical commercial system for modern enterprises, relied on by leaders in every industry.
Team Ownership
We’re a consciously small team with high ownership, drive, curiosity, and ambition.
At Planhat, we own product strategy and velocity: a combination of making the right market bets and then working closely with engineering to build them with speed and quality. In a world as competitive and complex as ours, you can’t choose between having the right ideas and ability to execute faster than anyone else - we are owning both. In that sense, we think of our role as highly entrepreneurial: a sixth sense for spotting opportunities to create real value and a killer instinct to execute on it.
We are both technical enough to work closely with a team of engineers, and are leaders on Planhat’s market, products, and competitive positioning.
People and Culture
More than anything, people on the team just find it intuitively joyful to work on complex challenges, and grow fast doing so. With lots of ownership and ambition comes high expectations - for us, this is a source of excitement. Never expect to stand still here, in learning or exposure to bigger problems or in compensation - and hopefully you’ll also feel like most days are simply “fun”.
We’re looking for anyone who gets excited about our mission and about the team, and existing team members have experience from roles in:
Software startups and scale-ups
Neuroscience research
Leading consulting firms, in data science and strategy
Venture capital investments
…and a bunch of random projects and part-time work over the years where we learned a lot!
Team members can typically specialise more commercially (owning product strategy for markets) or technically (contributing to code, and owning technically advanced projects).
Location
The team is global, but working from anywhere is a right earned and not given, and context sharing is critical for ramping fast. So in a majority of cases we’re looking for people who can (re-)locate to our offices in London or Stockholm for at least the first year. After that, our team members have over the past years been found working from Patagonia, New York, LA, Colombia, South Africa, and Istanbul (to name a few).
Every single day we work closely with our incredible engineers from Egypt, Brazil, Canada, UK, the Philippines, and elsewhere; and we regularly meet up in person with the larger product and engineering organisation.
