D&I Glossary
A-Z
When discussing “D&I”, we often forget to define what we’re actually talking about. To come to a mutual agreement on the language and concepts around diversity and inclusion, we compiled a glossary of terms. Some of these pop up in our surveys, articles or presentations. Others help us in opening up the conversation, among ourselves or with the people around us. If you feel like there’s something missing, incomplete or incorrect – please let us know.

From apps to artificial intelligence, from brands to blockchain – we build it
As a tight-knit team of sixty engineers and designers1, we know how to build products from the ground up that stand the test of time.
With solid expertise in a wide range of industries and several PhDs in machine learning and artificial intelligence, we believe that there are no products we can't build.
Forming close relationships with ambitious companies outside of organisational bureaucracy, we like to get things done at full speed.
We do have a soft spot for the serendipitous path of discovery. That’s why we host An Interesting Day2, run stupid hackathons3, keep bees and make honey4.
Join us
We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace, where everyone has the freedom to thrive while being taken care of.
Check out our Company Handbook to get a peek into our perks and the inner workings of our culture.
We always keep our ear to the ground for great people. Pop us an email, or send us an open application if you think we should talk.
