Product Team Values

Be a Voracious Learner

Learning is embedded into the DNA of our Product team. The core of what we do is to continuously run experiments to learn more about how to move the metrics that drive the highest impact to the company. Additionally, as individuals we are curious and naturally driven to constantly learn and share best practices and research about product, design, sales, marketing, our users, our market, our competitors, etc.

Don't Ship to Ship, Ship to Maximize Impact on Key Metrics

Every experiment that we run on the Product & Design team is calculated, and we must make sure that we are intentional with our decisions. Propose, prioritize, and deliver Product initiatives by working backwards from the metrics that have the highest potential to impact the business given the resources that we have.

Push the Envelope

Be curious, bold, and progressive. We're a team of owners, and we're eager to share and hear ideas and opinions on how to improve things.

Raise the Bar, Together

Our team members are constantly striving to improve not only themselves, but each other. We know that if we help each other become better in our roles, we will continuously up-level the caliber of the Product & Design team and inevitably be successful.

Optimize for Learning Velocity

When working on new initiatives, optimize for gathering the most learnings as quickly as possible. This means qualitative and quantitative data. Be in the field and speak with users, and look at the metrics from analytics.

Relationships Matter

Everyone you work with is "human". Understand their goals and issues, and how they like to work with others if you want to excel at collaboration.

Be Open, Honest, and Constructive

Stay open-minded to the thoughts and opinions of others. Only communicate with honesty to increase trust and minimize confusion. When feedback is given, try to be constructive so that we can all build each other up rather than just pointing out generalized negative/positive things about each other.

What You'll Love About Apollo

We offer a competitive salary and benefits, informal, fun, and remote working environment. Access to all Reforge programs to ensure that our team is constantly learning and following best practices as they advance in their careers. We're a company that believes in hiring great people and giving them the guidance and autonomy to maximize results and work towards their career goals.

Our work environment is diverse with a global remote team, and we are intentional in building an inclusive culture where everyone can be the best version of themselves. We created a place where ideas are encouraged from everyone and egos are left at the door. We're building a long-term company, and we want you to be a part of it! If this sounds interesting to you - please apply and we hope to talk to you soon! :)
