As a Senior Engineer, you’ll partner with a diverse and passionate team dedicated to building products in an ultra-lean and agile way. Credo is home to many lean product engineers, researchers, designers, and product managers. We are driven to build sustainable, working products that have a meaningful impact on the lives of the people who use them.
What’s it like to work here?
We spend time on what’s important; meetings are for mission-critical reasons only. We work collaboratively to make decisions, and support one another in sharing our best ideas, challenging the status quo, and considering alternate approaches. We hire highly competent, reliable, and focused people and trust they know how to do their best work. Leadership at Credo is a service role, and it's a leader’s job to set clear expectations and goals while empowering team members to meet them.
Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) isn’t a project or a policy; it’s a non-negotiable imperative. We respect and value our differences and strive to make our workplace comfortable for all. Sometimes we make mistakes or say the wrong thing, which we leverage to drive constructive conversation and awareness. We embrace difficult conversations with a willingness to be vulnerable and grow.
Company Values

- Learn Constantly - we embrace a growth mindset, are curious and open-minded, seek constant improvement, experiment, and “fail fast”
