Work Style & Philosophy
As part of our hiring criteria, we share our work style and values here. We are committed to building a team based on strong cultural alignment, and we are looking for candidates who resonate with the following principles:
We adopt LeSS (Large-Scale Scrum) as our development framework. Although we handle multiple products for business purposes, we maintain a single product backlog. Backlog items are created by team members and refined collaboratively, with prioritization determined by the Product Owner (PO).
- Each sprint lasts two weeks
- Development is conducted in cross-functional teams
- Learn more about our development style via the [official LeSS guidelines](https://less.works/less/principles)
We make full use of tools such as Slack, Miro, Jira, Confluence and Figma, but what we value most is: "Working together in the same place, at the same time."
Therefore, we adopt a fully in-office work policy, prioritizing collaboration through face-to-face conversations, whiteboard usage, and mob programming.
While embracing diverse values, we are also committed to utilizing AI agents in our development process. Please note that we are not seeking candidates who are skeptical or negative toward the use of AI agents.
