Our Team
about itero
At Itero, we believe that our technology is only as good as our team. We strive to create a working environment in which our skilled team can thrive and produce their best work.
Our iterative approach defines our team and technology.
We are committed to creating the best possible engineering processes, which we feel goes hand-in-hand with building a great workplace. We strive to foster an environment of trust and opportunity, where ambitious people are supported to grow and can take pride in their work as individuals and as a team.
At all levels of our company, it is important that there is flexibility and independence. We trust employees to make their own decisions, and we value those who can work independently and take initiative. With Itero, you’ll have high exposure to other parts of the business, and you won’t be boxed into a particular position or level.
We aren’t afraid of change, and we practice a structure with clear responsibilities where good ideas are welcome from anyone. Honesty is integral to our business; we are honest about what we need from people and expect honesty in what our people need from us.
