Careers at Kinelo

Help build the future of hybrid teams.

We are a small team in San Francisco building the systems that help humans and AI work effectively, shoulder to shoulder. It’s the new hybrid team. Most of us are engineers, and everyone here is crucial in shaping what the product becomes. In fact, we use Kinelo every day to build itself.

What we believe

Our values.

  • Principles

    • We trust our gut, are willing to be contrarian, and we chart our own course.
    • We embrace uncertainty and ambiguity because it's where there is opportunity for innovation.
    • We have the confidence it takes to accept fast failure because many things we do are not permanent, can be changed or corrected, and ultimately, we will learn, adapt, and grow.
    • We believe we can compete against the best and do what others think is impossible.
    • We are informed by experience and historical data but not bound to it: the world is changing and what is possible and feasible and right today is different than it was yesterday.
    • In our product and business decisions we're data-informed, not data-driven.
    • We are willing to place big bets when we have conviction.
  • Principles

    • We understand that speed, applied in the right direction, helps us reduce uncertainty and innovate quickly, enabling us to compete at the highest level in a rapidly changing, intensely competitive industry.
    • We share our work when it's rough and raw and in-progress because speed of collaboration and communication is more important than individual craftsmanship.
    • We look ahead to our destination by thinking holistically about the big picture, even if we move forward in rapid incremental steps.
    • We dive deep in our thinking and analysis, exploring nuances, considering gotchas, and strategizing. Then we decide and act quickly.
  • Principles

    • When we see a problem we take steps to solve it; or we make a conscious and intentional decision to not.
    • We have a strong sense of responsibility for positive outcomes and measure ourselves by what we achieve, not by our effort.
    • We take responsibility for playing our part on the team, because we know we win or fail together.
    • We get things done. Sometimes this means doing things that don't scale, especially for our customers.
    • We consider options and are open to new ways of solving problems that might be different, cheaper, or faster than how things were done before.
    • We are thoughtful, value finite resources, and willing to explore options that achieve 80% of the desired outcome with 20% of the resources or 20% of the time.
  • Principles

    • We are empathetic towards our end-users and customers, using intuition and emotional resonance to inform our choices.
    • We care for each other and are compassionate, even while holding each other to exceptionally high standards.
    • We act with integrity towards each other and the market.
    • We default to candor, directness, openness, and transparency.
    • We try to thrive as a business by creating true positive impact and value for our customers, our end users, and the world.
    • We value privacy and individual liberties.
