Stellar Culture

Fulfilment through the best work of our lives

Pursuit of Excellence

We are not a family; we are a high-performance sports team- and our sport is solving users' problems

Talent Density

We prefer to hire one AI-augmented superhuman over five average players- that's why we offer top-of-market compensation and free access to the employee-only fund

Relentless Innovation

Dare to solve daunting problems with first principles thinking, multidisciplinary ingenuity, resourcefulness, and grit

The Fast and The Curious

The speed of execution and improvement matters more than perfection

Radical Candor

Being kind is more important than being nice- say what people need to hear, not what you think they want to hear, and actively seek feedback

Truth Alone Triumphs

Change your mind when the facts change, and don't fool yourself with vanity metrics (Delulu is not the solulu)

Pride in Craftsmanship

What we build ends up building us- this is more than "just work"

Fewer Rules Rule

Thrive in freedom by being self-motivated, taking ownership, and always acting in Stellar's best interests
