Organization and methodologies

Hero

🤝 Collaboration above all

We take full ownership of our projects: each team of 2 to 3 developers is accountable for its own work, with no hierarchy between PMs and devs. Our Head of Engineering doesn’t make all the decisions—he sets the direction.

Transparency is key: if an issue arises, we address it openly and directly, without any detours. Feedback is welcome, with no egos. This is a core value and a key recruitment criterion.

No meeting overload: if we're not needed, we leave the meeting. No daily stand-ups or retrospectives.

In a context of very strong growth, we are looking to recruit people who share our values:

  • Entrepreneurial mindset. We are still at a very early stage and we are not ashamed to say that we have not set up all the processes, we define ourselves as builders where it's better done than perfect. Because it is together, with the initiative of our employees, that we are shaping Hero a little more each day. If you want to be part of an entrepreneurial adventure, if you like to start from scratch, then you are definitely knocking at the right door.

We encourage all our employees to be vocal, no matter how long they've been with the company, whatever their level of seniority, everyone has a say, as long as the feedback is constructive. There is no room for ego here.
