A look under our shell
We are open
To any new idea. To inspiration from every colleague and experience. Supporting the open source community that makes us who we are.
We are owners
We own our decisions. Our mistakes. The places they take us.
We are courageous
We take on any challenge. Take calculated risks. We drive changes, not resist them.
A Cast of individuals
We believe in open minds, open discussions, and open source. And we value and celebrate the diversity of our people. Every day, we’re building an even more inclusive workplace.
Aiven is somewhere you’ll be able to come out of your shell and be your best, true self.
Think Sideways to move the world forward
At Aiven we have big plans: to be the world’s leading cloud data platform. To make that happen, we need more sideways thinkers to join our Cast of Crabs.
The work we do at Aiven can be anything but straightforward, so we must be bold and innovative. For us, it’s not necessarily what you think that matters. It’s how you think.
If you like to find more lateral or unusual ways to solve problems, maybe you could #ThinkSideways and take big steps forward. Just like our mascot, Crabby!
