Careers
A culture of brilliant misfits.
We take the work seriously and ourselves a lot less.
A small crew of engineers, designers and applied AI specialists who would rather pull a hard problem apart than polish a template. Async by default, flat by design, and usually juggling three projects across different domains.
01A note from the COO
You're not a cog in the machine. You're crew.
We're not here to build just another company. We're here to make a place where smart, curious people do work they're proud of, and have a damn good time doing it.
So dive in. Ask questions, all of them; none are stupid here. Test things until they break. Share your ideas. Help each other out. And let's build some seriously cool stuff together.
Balagopal P, COO, Asymmetri
02Fair warning
You don't want to work for Asymmetri.
If you want tidy workflows, a quiet desk and someone telling you what to do next, a team that works across domains will drive you up the wall. We'd rather say so now.
- Tidy, streamlined processes
- One stack, one domain, forever
- Waiting your turn to have an opinion
- Polishing until it's perfect
- A manager who decides for you
- Everything is figureoutable
- Three projects, different domains, same week
- Real, independent input into what you make
- Fail faster, succeed sooner
- Close to the founders, no layers in between
Still here? Then you're exactly where you're supposed to be.
03How a week works
Output over face time.
No strict nine-to-five. Work when and where you work best, as long as you hit your timelines and keep the team in the loop.
- Flexible.What matters is output, not hours online. Tell us your plans and we'll work around them.
- Fewer, faster, purposeful.If it can be a message, it stays async.
- Daily morning syncs.A quick sync every morning to align on what's on everyone's plate. That's the one fixed point.
- Direct but kind.In the open, as the work happens. Not saved up for a review cycle.
04The work
No two weeks look alike.
You'll rarely sit on one thing. Most of the crew juggles at least three projects across different domains at any given time: an agent runtime one day, a mobile release the next, an R&D prototype by Friday.

Where the work lands.
Systems that think, decide and act on your data.
AI Agentic Systems and Data
Agents, knowledge and data engineered into one accountable operating layer. From retrieval and memory to orchestration, evaluation and governance, we build AI that leaves the chat window and does the work.
Inside AI & dataProducts people transact with, depend on and trust.
Application Development
Web platforms, mobile apps, SaaS and connected devices, designed and engineered by one team. An AI-driven delivery loop takes the product from first commit to production, then keeps it improving.
Inside app developmentFrame the hard problem. Architect the answer.
Technology Consulting
Strategy, architecture and technical leadership from people who also build. We find where technology creates real operating leverage, design the system, and stay accountable until it runs.
Inside consultingWhat is next, engineered into what ships.
Innovation and R&D
Applied research in AI and machine learning systems and in mixed reality, plus the products we build and run ourselves. We prototype the frontier, prove it, then transfer it into production.

06Who we hire
We hire for judgment and range, not job titles.
- LeadershipSets direction and owns the outcome.
- EngineeringFull-stack, platform and infrastructure.
- DesignProduct, interaction and brand systems.
- Applied AI and DataModels, knowledge, agents and evaluation.

07What you get
Built so you can do your best work.
No ping-pong table. No free-snacks pitch. Just the conditions good work needs.
- Remote, for realWork from anywhere. The crew is spread across time zones and the work is built for it.
- Your hoursNo nine-to-five. Hit your timelines, keep people in the loop, and the rest is yours.
- No micromanagementWe hired you for your judgment. We don't second-guess it, and we don't send weird late-night messages.
- No layersWork directly with the founders and the people who use what you build. It ships and gets judged on whether it holds up.
- AI-native toolingClaude Code, Codex, Cursor and friends are part of how we ship, so your time goes on judgment, not boilerplate.
- Range that keeps you sharpA new domain, a new stack, a new problem before the last one goes stale. There's nothing here to coast on.

How we behave
The culture code.
Eight rules we actually use. Not posters on a wall: the way decisions get made on an ordinary Tuesday.
- Flat by design.No bosses, just ownership. Everyone's voice counts, including yours in week one.
- Feedback is fuel.Direct but kind. Give it, get it, use it to get better. It's never personal; it's how we grow.
- Async-first.We work across time zones and schedules. Write it down, say it clearly, and nobody waits on a meeting.
- Done ≠ perfect.Push early, iterate fast. Shipped and improving beats perfect and imaginary.
- Decisions over indecision.We'd rather you try, learn and adjust than stay stuck. A call made today beats a perfect one made next month.
- Need help? Ask.No one expects you to know it all. Hitting friction? Loop people in early. Ask early, ask often.
- Everything is figureoutable.New domain, unfamiliar stack, no template. We pull the problem apart until the answer shows itself.
- Celebrate everything.Big wins and small ones. A win is a win, and we say so out loud.
Don't fit the template? Good.
Neither do we.
