Our culture is built on teamwork and transparency. We hold each other accountable and always have each other’s backs.
While primarily remote, this role requires occasional visits to the office in Coimbra or in Aveiro. We plan to open an office in Porto in the future. This approach gives team members the flexibility to work remotely while also coming together in the office for collaboration and teamwork.
