Process Interview process 01 Signal review We review your application for evidence of thinking, craft, integrity, and alignment with Aooma's mission. 02 First conversation A focused conversation about your work, how you think, what you want to build, and where you may fit. 03 Work sample or deep dive Depending on the role, we may review existing work, ask for a practical exercise, or discuss a technical/design problem in depth. 04 Team alignment We check whether there is a real role, project, or contribution path where your abilities can compound. 05 Offer or future signal If there is a fit, we move forward. If timing is not right, we may keep the signal warm for future roles. Inclusion Accessibility & adjustments We want this process to be fair and practical for you. If anything would help — written questions in advance, more time to think, an async first conversation — tell us in the application. You never need to share a diagnosis or any medical detail.
