Every hire raises our bar

Build where it’s still wild.
Two and a half years ago, we started with a simple question: what happens when every team in a company can build the way engineers do?
Today, Serval runs inside some of the largest companies in the world, including two of the Fortune 20. Our ARR has tripled in the past 3 months, and Sequoia just valued us at $3 billion.
We’re on track to build a generational company. The engineers who join now will decide how far it goes.
So we’re putting our money where it matters most - recruiting elite builders.
Here's how:
1. $10,000 upfront bonus for a week-long luxury vacation to start your Serval engineering journey.
2. When an engineer joins through a referral, Serval pays $30,000 each to the new hire and the employee who referred them.
The best people have their choice of incredible companies, but we believe Serval is where you'll have the most scope and impact.
You were made to build. Come build where it’s still wild.

How we hire
Fewer, better
We don't compromise. We’re patient. We never hire the “good enough” candidate. We’ll wait for the best candidate to fill a role. The bar is non-negotiable.
Work hard. Celebrate often.
How we work
Our three operating principles
We are negative maintenance.
We remove friction from the organization by killing process and solving problems independently.
We raise the bar.
Every single hire and every single deliverable must be better than the average of what came before.
We pull timelines forward.
Every timeline should be challenged. Our default response to any time estimate is "what would have to be true to do it sooner?"
Our investors
We just raised a $150M Series C at a $3B valuation, led by Sequoia. That brings our total funding to $277M from the world's best investors.
