Here’s why you should join us:
We all share the same vision – we value authenticity, respect, responsibility, independence, honesty, diversity and inclusion and most importantly treating others how you wish to be treated. We look for like-minded people who bring their personalities to work everyday, strive to achieve their personal goals and who are willing to challenge the way we do things, why? – to make what we do even better!
Our values tell the story of Tyk – here’s how:
**It’s ok to screw up! ** We’ve found that it’s often the ‘stupid’ or unexpected ideas that turn out to be the successful ones – so try it, at least we can say we have!
**The only stupid idea, is the untested one! ** It’s in our DNA – starting a business with founders 12 hours apart, giving our gateway away for free – sure, we did that, and we’d do it again!
**Trust starts with you – make it count! ** Trust is a two-way street – instill it from day one!
**Assume best intent! ** We have each other’s back – we’re all on the same team. Think before you speak or act.
**Make things, better! ** Always try to leave things better than when you found them – change is constant, inevitable and embraced! Be that change we want to see.
