Careers

Do the calmestwork of your career.

We’re a small team building a product that asks for less of people’s time. It turns out that’s a pretty good way to work, too.

01 How we work

We practise whatwe ship.

01

Quiet Fridays

No meetings, no Slack. One day a week for deep work — or a long walk that turns into deep work.

02

Async by default

We write things down, so nobody has to be online at the same time to be heard.

03

Nothing before ten

Mornings are for your own rituals. Our calendars start at 10:00, in every timezone.

04

Use what we build

Everyone gets Lumera Pro and a monthly reflection with their lead — not a status update.

02 Benefits

Looked after,properly.

The same for everyone, from interns to founders. Written down, not negotiated.

03 Open roles

8 ways tojoin us.

  • Craft the calmest app on your phone. You’ll own the reflection experience end-to-end in SwiftUI, from haptics to offline sync.

    • 5+ years building native iOS apps people love
    • Care about motion, accessibility and battery life in equal measure
    • Comfortable pairing with designers and clinicians
  • Help Lumera listen well. You’ll work on the models that summarise reflections and — most importantly — notice when someone needs a human.

    • Experience shipping NLP systems to production
    • A rigorous approach to evaluation and safety
    • Curiosity about psychology (clinicians will teach you the rest)
  • Build the private, boring-in-the-best-way infrastructure that keeps 60,000 people’s thoughts safe.

    • Deep experience with distributed systems and encryption
    • Enjoy making complex things simple for the team
    • Experience in health or finance data is a plus
  • Design the small daily moments — the check-in, the breath, the note you send a friend — that make up a calmer week.

    • A portfolio that shows restraint
    • Strong interaction and prototyping skills
    • Comfortable testing ideas with real people, early
  • Make stillness move. Own the motion language across the app and site — breathing guides, transitions, the Clarity ring.

    • Rive, After Effects or code-based motion
    • An eye for timing that feels human
    • Bonus: you meditate, or at least try to
  • Lead the team writing Lumera’s exercises. Translate evidence-based methods into five gentle minutes.

    • Licensed clinical psychologist or psychotherapist
    • 3+ years of practice, ideally with CBT or ACT
    • You write clearly and kindly
  • Run our lived-experience panel. Make sure the people we build for shape what we build.

    • Lived experience of mental health challenges
    • Experience facilitating research or peer support
    • Excellent listener; better note-taker
  • Grow a community around quiet — events, writing and partnerships that feel nothing like marketing.

    • A track record building communities people stay in
    • Great writer with a calm voice
    • Happy hosting a Sunday walk as much as a panel
