About our team

We are a remote-first team with a focus on delivering high quality work. Our distributed nature enables us to expand our team in several locations, gain access to iniduals with specialized skills, and support them for continued success.

We are a high growth startup. That means we come with inherent instability and chaos. And we embrace it. Working here should be rewarding for you. We are very selective about who we bring on the team. And we want to make sure that working at Feather is something that each of our team member is proud of. So let us know what you want: higher pay, new work, or change in your career.
