We don’t see velocity and quality as tradeoffs - both matter. This sometimes means long days and work spilling into weekends, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. We each find balance in our own way, making time for what matters outside of work while always giving our best. If you are someone who takes pride in high-impact work and thrives in a driven team, HackerRank is where you belong.
