Who We Are
We are a small team with backgrounds in building businesses that delight customers. With HeySummit, we’re on a mission to be the best way to spread human knowledge.

HeySummit is a business borne out of need, after Ben wanted to run an online conference and couldn’t find something to do the trick. He didn’t have a solution, so decided to build one. After a successful summit and listening to the 50th person begging to know what platform he’d used, the decision to open HeySummit to the world was made.

More than just a summit platform, we strive to make an impact with everything we do.

Where We’re Going
We see HeySummit growing into a highly impactful company, building a beautiful product that empowers users all over the world.

The future, we believe, is distributed, and we’re building a connected team that can work from anywhere. We welcome applications from all over the world.

Following in the footsteps of pioneers like Buffer and Doist, we’re deliberate about the culture we develop. This means fostering a working community of independent thinkers, supporting one another to work our best, and encouraging personal and professional growth.

Working With Us
We believe exceptional work is about adopting a mindset of continuous learning and being comfortable with failure, openness and vulnerability. We practice radical candor, provide a supportive environment and encourage everyone to challenge assumptions. We have a no-blame culture where everyone’s ideas have value.

We’re remote positive, and this role is specifically for someone who is able to work during normal business hours in Asia.

We believe communication is vital for exceptional work. We have daily video standups, open calls, and 121s where you meet and build relationships with every member of the team. We have two all-company off-sites per year. These activities help us to build a strong and supportive workplace culture.


How We Hire
First and foremost, we look at the abilities of the candidate and match them against the job description. Following the meeting of that bar, we prioritise diversity of background, expertise, and experience. We respect a willingness to learn and grow, and expect mutual honesty and input.

We believe that diversity is strength and we offer a culture and opportunities to make inclusivity the norm. As a team we are inclusive and encouraging of differences, and flexible in how, when, and where we work. We value a willingness to learn and develop, vulnerability, and radical candor. Applicants are welcome from any background, nationality, culture, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability and religious affiliation.

Next Steps
If you love what you’ve been reading, we’d love to get to know you. We’re interested in bringing someone onboard to join the team as soon as possible. Here’s our process:

  • Fill in a few questions we have here. Don’t worry about length and you’re welcome to use bullet points
  • If it looks like you match what we’re looking for, we’ll schedule a quick chat between you and a member of the team
  • We’ll provide you with a short exercise to test tone and ability to research a solution to a problem

We want to respect your time, and will do all we can to make this process as quick as possible and provide you with actionable feedback.
