B12

B12’s mission is to help people work smarter. The rise of automation in the workforce is one of the largest challenges society will face in the coming decades. We look to use technology and automation as a force for good to build a brighter future of work. As a team, we strive to create a transparent and collaborative work environment that enables us to build the best possible products for our customers.

B12's engineering team views software as a craft, but improving the world as the reason to practice it. Our engineers are responsible for prioritizing, conceptualizing, co-designing, building, testing, and engaging users for any concept we are building out. We’re generalists in encouraging each other to experience the full stack, but we’re also aware of each other’s preferences in the stack. We mentor and teach where we can, both inside and outside of the company.

We value sharing our work with the outside world. Our team has published papers on forming expert flash teams and machine-mediated worker hierarchies. We’ve baked our research into Orchestra, the system that coordinates our expert and machine teams, and released Orchestra into open source to contribute our software back to the community.
