Working at Reaktor

For Reaktorians, both current and future alike, our goal is to offer circumstances for growing into the best professional version of ourselves. We believe that getting there requires doing truly meaningful work, giving our teams the freedom to embrace both autonomy and responsibility, and leaning into a growth mindset in everything we do.

Do work that matters

We always aim to create category-defining products that perform the best when it matters the most. This doesn’t happen by chance. We don’t operate by handing over a Jira scope and assuming blind execution but instead expect you to challenge the status quo and look for better, even unexpected, ways to meet a client’s needs and get to the heart of what matters.

Operate in autonomous teams

We trust our people to make the calls on their projects. From adopting the right tools and methodologies to deciding which tech stacks to go for, our teams have the freedom and responsibility to do what it takes to make a complex project succeed.

Grow professionally

From mentoring models to internal training and academies, we put a lot of effort into supporting our people to learn and thrive in complex environments. You’ll be surrounded by a community that helps one another and have a diverse set of opportunities to work in cross-functional teams, composed of the brightest minds in technology, design, product development, and more. 

How we hire

Greetings

Our first chat is quite casual and focused on basic questions, like who are you, and what steps are you looking to take in your career?

Attitude

The attitude interview is all about hearing stories from your history. Our questions commonly start with “Could you tell me about a time when…” and don’t have any one right answer. We reserve time for you to interview us, too.

Skills

The principle behind our Skills interview is to be as real world as possible and focus on skills needed in the position you are applying to. No trick questions here.

Onboarding

Our onboarding lasts about six months and covers territory from culture to our business model and beyond, with the main focus being on our ways of working. You’ll also have the opportunity to go off-site with other new teammates for a more concentrated orientation experience.

 

Global perks and benefits

We do our best to create the conditions you need for doing the best work of your life. We are dedicated to developing Reaktor as a workplace and are doing so continuously as we learn from what our people need in order to succeed. Many benefits we offer are location-specific, such as healthcare and commuting stipends. These are some that apply to all of our offices.

 

Work-life balance

For us, this means more than the above-average opportunity for personal time off. We believe that work doesn’t include overtime. And that people do their best work with enough flexibility in where you choose to log on.

Health

We take health very seriously. We offer top-class health benefits and ergonomic solutions in all of our locations. In addition, we offer mental health support – both through Reaktor’s own Hug team and our local, professional partners.

Community

At Reaktor, you’ll find a network of colleagues who are banded together in more ways than just getting work done. We organize recurring dinners, team outings, company trips, and other bonding opportunities. Reaktor also hosts 200+ hobby clubs – everything from biking and ice swimming to dance games and knitting clubs.

Professional growth

Professional growth is the number one reason people apply to Reaktor. From mentoring models to internal training and academies, we put a lot of effort into supporting our people to learn and thrive in complex environments. And if we don't yet offer it – we've got you covered for external courses and outside learning opportunities. And any books, too!

Latest tech

We believe in staying ahead of the curve. That's why we provide you with the top tech to help you do your best work. From a laptop to a phone and a remote set-up, we provide you with all the tools you need.

Vacation days

We believe in time off and in rest. Everyone takes their vacations. At a minimum, we offer 25 vacation days, including public holidays, to all our employees.

FAQ

 

true

What are we looking for in new teammates?

We believe there’s more that matters than just the resume. We’re looking for an exciting overlap of curiosity, creativity, people skills, and experience: people who are willing to learn, participate, and share new perspectives. 

 

true

What does the hiring process look like?

We take the time to learn about your skills and aspirations and help you learn about ours. Our interview process usually involves four or five conversations over the course of a few weeks. From application to closing, our process takes up to four weeks. Your recruiter will keep you up to date on what to expect from each stage of our interviewing process.

 

true

What kinds of projects do you have?

We do a variety of different kinds of projects, with the aim of each being meaningful and critical to a client’s business. Our typical engagements are from 6 months to 18 months and involve between 3-6 Reaktorians collaborating closely with our clients. When it comes to picking and choosing, we look at a number of things from the business side. For example, we tend to be interested in the multi-functional growth potential of the project as well as the technological and digital maturity of the client, their product, and the project overall.

However, not all good business is a good fit for us culturally. We only take on new business that aligns with our values, is interesting for our people to work on, and has a great local or global impact.

true

How do we staff projects?

When staffing our projects, we first start by going through your preferences and ambitions for learning, be it customer location, the field of business, or some particular technology. We then go through your learning and self-development targets and seek projects to match.

We get multiple projects and new openings in existing projects each month. If there isn’t a perfect fit immediately, we try to find a spot for you in an existing project or take some time while you work on internal projects, or get deeper into onboarding.

 

true

Is it ok to work remotely?

We're embracing hybrid. In client work, we agree on work setups based on what best suits the client and the project. Sometimes projects are multisite, some fully on-site, some hybrid. 

 

true

What do people do in between projects?

Client work is our number one priority, but we’ve gotten pretty good at making the most out of the normal in-between time in the consulting business. Maybe you’ve just joined us, your project has just ended, or you’re rotating out of one and looking for new opportunities, it can sometimes take a while to find the next client project. These are great opportunities to take training, dive into a new topic, or help out with internal development. Your time in between projects does not affect your pay.

Relocation

We support new teammates worldwide in relocating to Reaktor

To date, Reaktorians from around the world have relocated to our offices in New York, Tokyo, Amsterdam, Helsinki, and Lisbon.
