Careers
Build the operating layer for global mobility.
ikan is small, senior, and shipping the trillion-dollar bar across web, desktop and mobile. Most roles are remote-first; we cluster in Bengaluru and Singapore for working sessions a few times a year.
How we work
AIRA-native by default
Every role uses AIRA as a co-pilot, not as an afterthought. Coordinators draft via AIRA, engineers ship via AIRA reviews, finance closes the books with AIRA pre-flagging exceptions. We hire people who treat AI as a teammate, not a curiosity.
Empathy is non-negotiable
Relocations are stressful. The assignee on the other end of every case is tired, often jet-lagged, often scared. Every PR, every email, every UX decision asks: "Does this make their day easier or harder?"
Senior bar, autonomy delegated
We hire seniors and trust them to ship. Push to main is the norm, not the exception. We pause for genuinely destructive actions, and only those.
Trust is the product
EuRA, GDPR, DPDP, alignment isn't a checkbox here, it's the moat. We invest in audit trails and source-of-truth schemas the same way we invest in marketing.
Open roles
No specific roles are open right now, but we're always looking for senior engineers, designers, coordinators and finance generalists who match the bar above. Send your CV and a one-paragraph note about something you've shipped that you're proud of.
