At Labster we are dedicated to empowering the next generation of scientists to change the world. Our goal is to develop software that makes learning both engaging and effective, whilst making it accessible to as many students as possible. We are growing at an electrifying pace. Since 2012, our simulations were played over 1,000,000 times and each semester 280 universities and institutions around the globe use them to enhance their teaching programs.

We govern ourselves by using a flat-hierarchy system called Holacracy that focuses on roles, collaboration, and distributed leadership. We believe in flexible work hours and a good work-life balance, and while we love to achieve greatness via concentrated work. It’s incredibly important for us to have happy and engaged team members and to hire people who are cultural contributors.
