Our Team

Render is headquartered in San Francisco, California, with remote team members distributed across the globe. We’re always on the lookout to add kind, thoughtful, and exceptionally talented individuals to our team. Drop us a line if you're motivated by the intersection of individual developer experience and global scale.

Our Values

Low Ego: Improving global outcomes is our top priority at work, and it is also the foundation for individual success.

Candor with Empathy: We say what we mean, directly, candidly, and sincerely, but always with empathy and respect.

Commitment: Hard work is an essential ingredient of success, but we’re in this for the long run. We take care of ourselves and seek balance to avoid burnout.

High Integrity: We do the right thing even when it’s the harder option, and especially when no one’s looking.

Ownership: We take full ownership and accountability for our work, but we’re never too proud to ask for help or additional context when needed.

How We Work

These are the shared underlying principles that guide our work and decision making at Render. It is a manual for new hires and a handy reference for the rest of us.

Obsessive Focus on User Experience: We minimize the amount of thinking, reading, and clicking Render users need to do. We do the laborious work upfront so our users don’t have to.

Continuous Learning: Failures and mistakes are healthy as long as we’re making new ones. We examine failures dispassionately, objectively and without blame and treat each one as an opportunity to improve.

Quality over Scope: We do not compromise on quality to meet arbitrary deadlines. Instead, we find ways to optimize scope, staffing, and schedules.

Global Optimization: As we grow and priorities begin to compete, we work together and focus on what’s best for our customers and our company.

Constructive Conflict: The best ideas and outcomes often emerge from vigorous debate amongst diverse viewpoints. We encourage intellectual disagreement when conducted with mutual trust and respect.
