Life At Umbra
“What I love most about working at Umbra is solving hard problems with my incredible teammates! The Product team spans every (continental) US time zone and yet everyone is remarkably collaborative, efficient, quick with a joke, and always willing to go the extra mile for each other.”
“My time at Umbra has been a period of significant growth, fueled by hands-on learning, the opportunity to work across various fields, and the collaborative spirit fostered by our diverse teams.”
“Being a part of Umbra has been nothing short of career defining. Development happens at an incredible pace and out of necessity. Umbra rewards ownership and promotes ingenuity.”
“Every day, I’m excited to touch emerging tech and create beautiful, functional products that benefit humanity. Umbra’s energetic, supportive culture has formed my most rewarding career experience.”
“Umbra’s leadership is genuinely interested in the individual employee and their happiness, with a sincerity that’s hard to find duplicate of in the industry. They want to build a company that will last, not just move to the next payday.”
Our Vision
At Umbra, we believe space has always represented more than what’s above us. It’s all around
us. It is expansive and bold. It challenges us to look outward, break boundaries, and reimagine
the limits of what we can achieve.
This is our purpose — to explore everything, solve anything, and compromise nothing — and in doing so, redefine what space can be.
Our Values
Exciting challenges lie ahead. Steered by our core values, we’ll tackle these challenges creatively and collaboratively.
Unified purpose
We are united by a shared purpose, driven to make the impossible possible. Our mission guides us through lengthy challenges, inspires creativity, and fuels our determination. Our collective goals propel us forward, and we will meet them while upholding high standards of conduct, quality, and respect for each other and our customers.
Relentless improvement
Driven by mission and perseverance, we continually seek ways to better ourselves, our products, and our processes. We measure our success by the real-world impact of our actions. We embrace change. We treat each other with compassion, empathy, and candor. In the face of challenge, we don’t just adapt; we learn and evolve.
Ruthless prioritization
In a world filled with endless possibilities, we focus intently on what truly matters. We cut through the noise, dedicating our energy and resources to tasks and projects that align with our core objectives and drive the most impact for our mission and customers. By constantly evaluating and refining our focus, we ensure our actions always serve our greater mission.
Aggressive mindset
Take ownership of your tasks and responsibilities. Don’t wait to be told what to do—step up, take action, and drive progress with a sense of urgency. Be bold – apply first principles, create new solutions, take measured risks, and find a way to persevere and prevail. Bring innovative solutions, not problems. Initiative, courage, and creativity are key to our collective success.
