Got a question?

How does your hiring process work?

->

Everything starts with your application, of course! If you see an open position that seems like a match made in heaven, send us your resume. We'll review it and reach out to you to plan a introductory meeting if it seems like a match (on paper). If that first meeting goes well, we'll plan a technical test (if necessary) and an interview with some people on the team. This way, we'll know for sure if you'll fit in. If all goes well, we'll give you an offer you hopefully can't refuse.

Are you remote-friendly?

->

Yes! We value a hybrid work environment, which means you can work at home, at our offices, or in your favorite coffee shop. You decide where you want to work, but we do love it when our team comes together on our weekly "team days" (two times per week). We promise, you'll love it too.

What are your values?

->

Curiosity, entrepreneurship, collaboration, and inclusivity are the things we value most at Raccoons. We get energized when exploring new technologies, when people get behind the wheel and take action, and when the whole team works together to get the best results possible.

Is it all work at Raccoons, or also play?

->

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, and "being dull" is the last thing we want to be. So, of course, we make time to have fun and strengthen our team atmosphere in teambuilding and afterwork activities. Each month, we have a drink 'n sync where our team comes together for some drinks and to catch up; we regularly have diverse teambuildings; and each year, we go on an amazing teamweekend (video proof above!).
