careers
We believe that great software is built by great people working in great teams, and we’re working hard to make Bitfount a home for both.
values
The world’s biggest problems are often tough to solve. Sometimes it’s about untangling technical complexities; other times, it’s questioning the status quo, each other, or ourselves. As a mission-driven team, we keep the human impact of our work in focus and embrace the challenges on our path to success. Whether building advanced technology, translating research into real-world solutions, or rethinking the relationship between tech and regulation, we prioritise impact over hype, and persistence over short-term gains.

Trust is the foundation of a strong, high-performing team. It means trusting people to work autonomously, knowing our strengths and limitations, and feeling safe to ask for help. It’s trusting that others act with integrity, and that problems are shared by the team, not individuals. We actively recognise and disarm defensive behaviours, building trust with teammates, especially when it's uncomfortable. Trust is a two-way street, and we earn it by acting with integrity, professionalism, and compassion.

Collaboration is in Bitfount’s DNA, and our mission of unlocking value by enabling others to work together applies just as strongly to how we ourselves work: internally as a team, with our customers, suppliers, and our broader community. We have a deep understanding that joining forces is worth the effort, and we always aim to create partnerships that are more than the sum of their parts. We always ask “Is there a better way to solve this problem through collaboration?”

Organisations are shaped by the people within them, and diverse experiences, viewpoints, and skills drive productive debate, breaking fixed patterns of thinking. We encourage all Bitfounters to bring their authentic selves and celebrate what makes their teammates unique. With compassion, patience, humility, and kindness, we foster a non-judgmental environment where everyone supports each other, grows, and enjoys their work.
