About Knapsack

Knapsack unites design, code, and content in a central source of truth for your entire product team. Their revolutionary design system platform was built to support collaboration between designers and engineers, and to help teams build better products. 

We provide our team with top-notch benefits:

  • Fully-remote team, so you can work from wherever you want

  • Whatever tools you need to do great work, tech and otherwise
  • Unlimited paid vacation
  • 401K plan with matching

As a team, we strive to approach every opportunity, every challenge, every conversation with our core values top of mind:

  1. Honor openness and vulnerability. We believe that diverse voices are important and lead to better solutions. We foster an environment where opinions and feedback are not only heard, but carry weight. We are kind and empathetic in our communications with each other and regularly express gratitude for each other's contributions. Feedback is delivered compassionately and intended to inspire growth. 
  2. Practice mindfulness and intentionality. Our actions are centered around our intentions and aligned toward shared outcomes. We communicate with intentionality—we focus on the future, not just the present. We respect the humility of not knowing and appreciate questions as much as answers. We use our voices, drive, and experiences to find ways to improve the business while growing as a team and individuals.
  3. Prioritize shipping, not perfection. To get our customers the tools they need as quickly as possible, we want to ship good—not perfect. To achieve this, we keep communications and planning as simple and straightforward as possible. We strive to be iterative in our workflows; with strong beliefs loosely held we can react to customer feedback and build great products for our users.
  4. Act with user empathy. User needs and struggles are at the heart of our work. Empathy for, and direct feedback from our users guides us and keeps us aligned towards shared goals.

If you share this vision, we'd love to work with you at Knapsack. Knapsack is an equal opportunity workplace. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, or Veteran status.
