Who you are — our three H's of our culture:
At Spokin, cultural fit matters as much as skill. We hire for these three qualities above all else.
Humble. You take feedback as the opportunity to learn.
Hungry. You do what it takes to get the job done. You take ownership of your work from start to finish, you're resourceful when you don't have all the answers, and you believe anything is possible. You don't just complete tasks — you question how they can be done better, faster, and more accurately. You're excited about AI, not intimidated by it.
Human smart. You have high emotional intelligence. You read the room, communicate clearly and you're a team player.
You're also deeply organized — you know how to prioritize what needs to happen first based on deadlines, lead times, and urgency. You are curious, especially about latest trends from social media to AI.
Bonus points
A personal connection to food allergies or celiac disease is not required but a huge plus. Second best is that you are highly empathetic to the pain point.
