Join us to help safely unlock the value of data for the benefit of humankind

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.

our vision

Bitfount exists to safely unlock the value of data for the benefit of humankind

We're building a new connective tissue for the B2B data economy. Society’s data superpowers are gathering dust due to a problem that's easy to describe but hard to solve: The data required to solve the world's most pressing problems isn't the kind that's easily shared.



The limitations of current data infrastructure have created painful, slow, expensive, and often ineffective workarounds for what should be seamless collaborations between trusted partners.

our mission

Bitfount’s goal is to make the world’s intractable data interactable

To do that, we’re building a missing piece of global infrastructure: a secure network for sending algorithms to data instead of the other way around. From federated machine learning to private SQL, we enable organisations to easily share the benefits of their data with one other. All, without having to go through the painful and risky process of moving it around, compromising its privacy, and needing to expose any raw data.

values

What we value at Bitfount

Embrace challenge

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.

Default to trust

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.

Better together

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?”

Celebrate diversity

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.
