At Reaktor, we have a very shallow explicit hierarchy. There are some leadership roles that resemble the more traditional explicit hierarchy, such as the CEO, but as a whole people don’t have bosses in the traditional sense who would tell you what to do. Instead, there’s a more fluid hierarchy that forms naturally around subject matters in the teams.

To give you an idea what it’s like working at Reaktor:

• We believe digitalization can bring unprecedented change to Japan. At Reaktor, you will be fulfilling a key role to help us bring innovative digital services to Japanese enterprises.

• We create digital services that answer users’ needs without compromising on software quality or execution speed.

• We support work-life balance. We believe that quality in our work comes from a mixture of experience, passion for the job, and a healthy lifestyle.

• We have global offices in New York, Helsinki, Amsterdam and Tokyo. You get to learn and share knowledge with other top talent from all over the world. Let's be real though, compared to our established office in Helsinki, we have a smaller setup. Having said that, we work with MNCs like Shiseido, ANA, Mercari to name a few to succeed in their digital ventures.
