What We Look For in Team Members

While there is no stencil for the type of people we like, there are a few traits that might make Reo.Dev a better fit for you. Reo might be a good fit if you…

1. work hard and want to grow really fast
2. care about your work a great deal… find it highly unsettling if the quality of work is even slightly sub-par
3. execute fast
4. are hands on (we will not have elaborate reporting structures for the foreseeable future and hopefully ever)
5. are someone people like to work with… low on ego, high on humility
6. have the ability to fail, learn and keep trying till you win… start-ups are tough and we will not get everything right the first time
