🚀 About Pulley

Pulley's mission is to make it easier for anyone to start a company. We believe that more startups should exist, and that founder-led companies are more successful in the long term.

All of our growth has been organic, and we’re growing the team to meet the demand.

🌟 Who We're Looking For

✨ Our Culture

TL&DR - Pulley is not a good fit for everyone, and that’s OK. This is a bit about the culture of Pulley. We need people who aren’t just interested in working at a startup; we need people who are excited about building a great company. In addition to function-specific skills, here are some traits that enable our team members to thrive:

• First Principles Thinking -- We believe in breaking down problems into their most basic parts. We don’t reject ideas because they haven’t worked before. We understand “why did certain things work?” and apply it to our situation.
• Ship It & Iterate -- Shipping is the starting line for learning. Ship something, talk to users, get feedback, and iterate. We focus on the inputs - on what we can control - not the outcomes. We take our best bets, and don’t fixate on the finish line.
• Boldly Honest & Aggressively Considerate -- Being boldly honest means we push one another to act from first principles, set and hit goals, and ruthlessly prioritize. Being aggressively considerate means we care about each other as humans to win as a team. We speak up and embrace feedback.
• Default Yes -- We believe that something is possible unless proven otherwise. Hard problems are often solved by people who didn’t know it was impossible.

Annual Compensation: $60-75k USD
