Context, not control
Under a singular mission, we value our freedom in how the work gets done. Once we agree on the direction and destination, you should be able to decide which road you take. There is no one answer to effective work, and you know which one works best for you. Just be mindful of the need for collaboration with your colleagues!

Best idea wins
Whose idea it is doesnโt matter. We firmly believe that only the teams that choose actionable ideas based on merit can grow. At CHAI, you can (and should) debate each idea vigorously and come to a decision on the best idea after thorough consideration. Once an idea is chosen, we execute on it as though it was our own.

7 things we look for in CHAI people
Short term pessimist, long term optimist
We welcome those who work with a sense of urgencyโvery well understanding the gravity of each obstacleโwhile never losing sight of the firm belief that we will ultimately succeed in the long run.
Not afraid to speak their mind, not afraid to hear out othersโ
We welcome those who arenโt afraid to speak their mind, and those who can accept and learn from honest feedback.
No room for brilliant jerks
Even if youโre a perfect fit otherwise, if there is never a doubt in your mind that you are right and that others are wrong, youโre probably going to be happier elsewhere. There is no room for brilliant jerks at CHAI.
Inclined to execute
Deep and deliberate thinking paired with effective communications are important. However, thinking and talking about a problem alone canโt change the world around us. At CHAI, we welcome those that are inclined to execute.
Hunger for solving problems
Those who wish to avoid or gloss over difficult problems arenโt the right fit for CHAI. We welcome those who thrive in the process of solving complex problems, and those who relish the thrill when the problem is solved.
Energy additive
We are sprinting towards a lofty goal in a highly competitive market environment. We believe in our team to provide each other with the positive energy necessary to overcome tough situations. We welcome those that are energy additive on the journey ahead.
High ambition & courage to go after it
We welcome those that set their sights on ambitious goals and the tenacity to go after it rather than those who set conservative goals prompted by a fear of failure.
