We're not a family, we're a professional sports team.

We can be friends, best friends; we can share hobbies and our life stories, but we're not a family, we are a team of talented and ambitious people who came together for a single purpose: help engineering teams of all sizes build better products in the age of serverless.

Everyone at Baselime is someone we all admire and we all learn from. Everyone at Baselime is a high-performer at their level in their field of expertise.

We hire and develop every teammate to build a championship contender. Just as pro sports teams, we are focused on current performance and future potential. We want our teammates to grow into their best versions, and to take pleasure in the process.

Positions must be earned. Just as nobody is born a Lakers or a Real Madrid player, nobody is born a team lead at Baselime.

We nurture high performance

When you join Baselime, you join a team with a common mission. You're surrounded by equally ambitious and talented teammates who are working towards the same mission. We provide you with the support, freedom and resources necessary to achieve your best performance.

We do NOT value hard work

• Effective work is always better than hard work. It's not about the number of hours you put in, but the results. We recommend watching Allen Iverson (NBA Hall of Fame) response to journalists asking him about missing practice.
• We do not judge people on the number of hours, the overtime, or the weekends spent working. When someone at Baselime stays late or works weekends, it's a failure of their leadership, setting inconsiderate goals and deadlines. We address problems upstream rather than encouraging destructive culture.
• We evaluate performance on a combination of speed, accuracy and quality of work, and teammates are compensated (or cut) accordingly.

We do NOT tolerate brilliant assholes

It's a team sport. Team cohesion is always above the brilliancy of a single genius (or a small group of geniuses).

Loyalty is in both directions

If you've been a great teammate at Baselime, and you go through a challenging period, we will stick with you, just as football teams stick with their strikers when they hit rough patches. We are convinced you will learn from those challenges and grow as a result.

Likewise, if Baselime goes through a temporary difficult period, we want our teammates to stay with us.

But ultimately, we do not expect you to be loyal to a sinking ship, just as we will not be loyal to a consistently under-performing teammate.
