Unique Aspects of Our Culture
Time Tracking: We utilize Toggl.com (you can check it out for free) to record all work tasks in 15-minute increments or greater. This helps us analyze project costs and time spent. All team members are required to do this (even our Founder). We trust our team and do not use screen monitoring software.
High-Performance Environment: We cultivate a culture where high performers thrive together, learn, and achieve challenging goals. Average or low performing employees won’t fit in our company.
Structured and Organized: We provide clear objectives, structure, and leadership— so you always know what winning looks like. We ensure team members can confidently achieve their goals on a daily basis, and offer support when it's needed.
Collaborative Improvement: We view your intelligence as an asset and will ask you to share ideas to enhance our systems and processes. Your input is a key to our improvement, and we implement suggestions regularly.
Results-Oriented: We focus on outcomes rather than hours worked, and value efficiency and effectiveness over working a targeted amount of hours.
A Note on Our Culture:
While we expect many future team members to be based in Colombia (including our founder, who has lived there for almost 3 years now), Launch or Scale is a US-based company — which means our internal culture, pace, and communication style are shaped by US business norms.
For example:
We tend to get straight to the point in meetings and messages.
We value proactive communication and problem-solving without waiting to be asked.
We move fast, expect direct feedback, and aim to always be improving.
We don’t expect you to change who you are — but we do expect cultural flexibility and a willingness to adapt to how the team operates internally.

Our Vision
For the Company
At Launch or Scale, we build powerful websites, mobile apps, and internal tools using modern no-code and low-code platforms.
Our vision is to grow strategically by first focusing on justice-focused startups (i.e., startups trying to improve the US Criminal Legal System, or that are adjacent to this space), then expanding to serve other nonprofits, small businesses, and startups.
We’re not seeking funding rounds or building this company in order to sell it later. We’re building a sustainable, profitable, long term business that is healthy and creates value for our clients and for you—our team members.
Our org structure for designers is intended to create attractive growth opportunities with clear salary transparency. Since you're our first full-time Web Designer, you'll report directly to our Founder. As we grow, we will hire more designers, which will eventually form design teams that are each led by a Creative Director:
Website Designer (Level 1) - Our core designers (COP 10M/month)
Lead Website Designer (Level 2) – Our most expert designers (COP 14M/month)
Creative Director (Level 3) – Coordinates design team across projects (COP 18M/month)
Vice President (Level 4) – Coordinates Creative Directors across the company (COP 25M/month)
We strongly prefer to promote from within. So if you're performing well and growing, then you’ll be considered first for any promotions versus candidates who are outside of the company.
