When we started kaori, we had a desk in Berlin and a co-founder in New York. Three years and 180 people later, we’re still remote-first. Here’s what we’ve learned.
Write it down
Decisions live in documents, not meetings. Anyone can see why something was built, which makes onboarding faster and arguments shorter.
Meet on purpose
Teams get together twice a year to plan and celebrate. The rest of the time, focused work wins over status updates.
“Remote didn’t make us slower. It made us clearer.”
Jonas Weber, Co-founder & CEO
We’re hiring across engineering, design and operations — wherever you live.
