identify and automate any repetitive process taking place at Scibids, including cases where this means developing some AI routines replacing “human common sense”.

Cultural fit

Do things only once. No repetitive task survives to ingeniosity and automation: at Scibids, everything needs to scale!
Base your decisions on data points. Preconceived personal convictions rarely survive thorough confrontation with actual data.
Work in team and be curious. Every Scibids member has stock-options and is focused on the same objective: make Scibids the next adtech unicorn! This means being interested in
how one’s daily personal work fits in Scibids general strategy and having in mind the greater
good of the company rather than individual accomplishments.
Have a good laugh. We are a young, hard-working team with huge ambitions: nothing wipes off long hours of work better than a good beer with the guys!
