Job Description

Who are we

We are venture builders and a technology investor. We work with startups and corporate ventures across industries to build innovative technology products that can scale.


MOHARA has a distributed team across the UK, Thailand, Mexico, and South Africa, working closely together across regions. Our core values at MOHARA include strong professional expertise, clear and reliable ways of working, long-term thinking, and the courage to ask questions and challenge assumptions. We care deeply about the people we build with -- our clients, users, and each other -- and we stay curious so we can keep improving how we work.

Culture

MOHARA has a relaxed, informal and trusting working environment. While we are project-based, we strive for company-wide collaboration, leaning on the value within our entire team. We're looking for people who feel they can add value to our team, and come with more than simply technical skills.


The individuals we hire are curious, have a point of view and know how to communicate it. They are also empathetic - to each other, to our customers' needs, and also for the users for whom we build innovative products.


Our particular client mix means we look for people with the courage to push the boundaries of their abilities and our clients expectations, who look beyond what is asked of them to find new opportunities, who are authentic in their abilities and honest with themselves. We treat a client's fledgling business like our own, and recognise the investment and passion that drives them.
