Working at Vellum

--

• We’re laser focused on helping companies bring AI into production and providing real value. Decision making is simple: if what we do allows our users to increase how many use cases of AI they’re able to successfully put into production, then we do it!
• Don’t cut corners, cut the right corners. What can you do with 10% of your time to get 90% of the desired impact? Now that you only spent 10% of the time doing something, imagine how much more can be done with the rest of your time!!
• Everyone is a 1000x engineer/designer/pm when they’re passionate about the problems they’re solving and love the people they’re working with
• Because we trust each other, we can move fast and have fun doing it 😄
