Buddy
Careers

Help businesses talk to customers where they actually listen.

Billions of customer relationships run through WhatsApp with none of the tools email has had for decades. We're a small, remote team building them, carefully and in writing.

Why work on Buddy.

The problem

Unglamorous and very large

WhatsApp is where customers are, and businesses still run it by hand. That gap is the work.

The team
This week
Shipped segments
5 customer calls

Small, and close to customers

Everyone talks to the businesses using Buddy. What you build, you see used the next week.

The way
Decision doc
Why we ship consent checks on every send, and what we decided against.

Written, async and deliberate

Decisions are written down so they can be argued with. We overlap on purpose, not by accident.

We're not hiring right now.

There are no open roles today. New roles will be posted here first. If the problem interests you, write to us anyway and tell us what you'd want to work on.

No unpaid take-home that eats your weekend.
No endless rounds of interviews.
No pretending a job is something it isn't.
A conversation, a paid exercise close to the real work, and a clear decision.
