Our Values 🧡

Be Ready to Ride. Raptors are fiercely collaborative and driven by a shared vision: audacious impact. We go the extra mile. We don't shy away from hard work; we embrace it. Be ready for any opportunity that comes your way, and seize it! We do the needful for each other and our customers, no matter what.

Show, Don't Tell. Raptors utilize data as our bedrock and build from first principles. We challenge the status quo by continuing to test, learn, and iterate. Because of this we default to action over agonizing. We love new ideas and encourage every Raptor to showcase their data-backed hypothesis.

Build Something Customers Need. We relentlessly build what matters most — game-changing products that deliver high-impact value to our customers. We’re built for action. We take customer needs (which implies they can’t live without) and translate them into solutions that accelerate their success. When our customers scale, Raptor Maps scales.

Be Resourceful. Raptors actively break down barriers, unlock creative problem solving, and thrive in the fast lane. While we plan for the long-term, Raptor Maps works on the hours and days timescale. Utilizing an “explore every option” mindset to solve problems is part of our DNA and maintains our startup edge in a rapidly changing world. We choose to be efficient and resourceful which enables out of the box thinking.

Be Direct, Be Kind. Raptors value the single source of truth both in our product and our day-to-day work. We default to giving explanations for changes and to sharing knowledge in public forums. Choosing to speak up while being mindful of people with a different background than you, is valued and appreciated. Do what is right for the customers and for each other. Mistakes happen, we are all learning together.

Appreciate the Planet. Raptors embrace our role as pioneers in the solar revolution. Our passion extends beyond modules and megawatts. We are working to protect the world for now and for future generations. We crave sunshine, and prioritize being active adventurers of the planet because we know there is no Planet B.

There’s no such thing as a ‘perfect’ candidate. However you identify, and whatever your background, we encourage you to apply if you’re excited about this role and the future of solar.
