Careers
Work on difficult problems with thoughtful people.
Cortex Applied is building a team of engineers, designers and problem-solvers who care about clarity, quality and useful technology.
Working philosophy
How we want to work.
01
Think before building
We value people who seek to understand the problem before selecting a solution.
02
Own the outcome
Team members should care about the usefulness and quality of the final product, not only their assigned tasks.
03
Communicate clearly
Strong communication reduces ambiguity, delays and unnecessary complexity.
04
Use technology deliberately
We adopt tools because they improve the work, not because they are fashionable.
05
Keep learning
Software changes continuously. Curiosity and adaptability are essential.

Workplace and culture
Focused, low-ego, deliberate.
Cortex Applied aims to create a focused, low-ego working environment. We prefer clear ownership, direct communication and meaningful work over unnecessary meetings or performative activity.
Depending on the role, work may be remote or hybrid. Expectations, working hours and collaboration requirements are stated clearly within each opening.
