About us

We are a group of engineers, recruiters, activitsts and researchers that came together to create something we wish would have existed when we quit. That is a recruitment platform that helps candidates find companies that align with their principles. So, instead of just joining another company and hoping their mission would align with our values we created Principled where we new it would.

Why we started

We saw tech companies abandoning their principles for profit. In a world where intention and outcome are hidden behind AI algorithms and corporate bureaucracy we saw the need for a recruitment platform more engaged with the world it's candidates live in; something human that would allow them to align their work and values.
