🛠️ The Stack

Python/Flask, React, React Native, PostgreSQL in a monorepo. We deploy daily and believe in distributed ownership - you build it, you own it.

🤖 The Tech Foundations area

🎯 Mission: Tech Foundations enables product crews and creates the environment to thrive—combining world-class infrastructure, intuitive developer experience, exquisite operational excellence, and built-in security to make shipping exceptional products effortless.

🔭 Scope:

• Infrastructure enablement for product crews (e.g. hosting improvements, CI/CD, scalability, multi-cloud architecture)

• Security and compliance facilitation (e.g. authentication, encryption, threat protection)

• Developer productivity enhancements (e.g. local environment setup, monorepo tooling, observability, tech stack evolution)

• Design and development unification (e.g. design system, accessibility)

• AI-assisted engineering enablement (e.g. agentic development, code assistants, MCP servers)

👀 Focus for 2026:

In 2026, we will grow the team significantly to further increase our impact. We want to expand our cloud footprint with a revisited multi-cloud strategy as we expand internationally, while we’re elevating the quality bar, from infrastructure to code foundations (backend/frontend/mobile). We are also evolving our AI-augmented development, by putting AI code assistants as a first-class citizen for everyone, including non-engineers. Ultimately we have massive ambitions around our Security stack and posture with enhanced tools and processes to protect our developers and users.
