Who we seek:
Great work needs great people. We are a team of highly skilled and award-winning creators, designers, engineers, industry experts, musicians, lucid dreamers, film directors, and aspiring carpenters all interested in exploring the possibilities of what we can build together.

Our close-knit team has an insatiable hunger to solve lots of problems in a variety of areas. We are constantly working on new products to solve gaps that we see in the market and are always looking for others with the same passion. We usually build software products, but we also are building consumer goods and hardware as well. We’re not afraid to try something new and we encourage it on all of our projects.

In addition to our own products, we also work with global brands to help build net-new digital products using the same methodology we use for ourselves. We’ve built class-leading products with major brands across sports, automotive, healthcare, fitness, insurance, media, and games.

Our headquarters are in Irvine, CA but we also have a vibrant center of operations in Toronto, ON. We also have team members scattered throughout the world working with us remotely, so location is never a limiting factor when it comes to talent.
