Our response to COVID-19

The health and well-being of our employees is one of our utmost important management concerns. Early on in March last year we switched to a full remote workplace and remained that way for the duration of the national emergency. We also shifted our core time to allow people to commute in off-hours periods. We have also switched back to full-remote on an ad-hoc basis in accordance with national and local guidelines. However, we treasure open communication, discourse and teamwork as one of the pillars of our company. While this is possible in many ways with a remote arrangement, we try to focus on in-person meetings, face-to-face discussions and an atmosphere of learning and knowledge sharing. Thus our base policy is for an in-office environment. However, our management team all have family and other personal obligations and understand the unique situations that exist for every single individual. In many cases where special accommodations are required for members of our team we do our best to work with the individual to accommodate their needs. Nearly every member of our team has taken advantage of this relationship in dealing with family obligations, vacation, and ad-hoc remote arrangements.

Working environment

The office is 3 minutes' walk from Yotsuya station, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, Japan. Our core time is from 10:00 to 16:00

You will be required to visit a client site for meetings. Also, as the project progress, you might be required to work at a client site (within Tokyo 23 wards area).

Upon on-boarding, you can choose your preferred development environment (an OS of your choice, PC, monitor, mouse, etc) within a certain budget.

Depending on your level of Japanese, you'll be able to enroll in a Japanese lesson held onsite by inviting a teacher. We regard this as a necessary business skill, thus the lesson is done during business hours, and the firm fully covers the cost. The same would apply to non-native English speakers to take English classes.

Sick leave during first six months of employment, accelerated paid leave schedule, additional paid leave for family emergencies and marriage/childbirth.
