We are buildinga place to stay.
Most technology companies are designed to be left. We are trying for the opposite — an ecosystem where craftspeople can spend a decade and feel it was time well spent.
We choose projects that matter to us, with people who care about what we're building. The work itself is the reward.
We aim high, but on a long timeline. Compounding craft. Compounding judgment. No sprint culture.
Deep work over reaction. Slack notifications can wait. The thing in front of you cannot.
We protect each other's time and attention like teammates, not coworkers. Trust is the operating system.
“The first time I shipped something I was proud of, I went home and slept for twelve hours.
The second time, I was already thinking about the next thing. Somewhere in between, I lost the feeling.
Ikigaia is my attempt to get it back — and to build a company where other people can find it too.”
