no moss in a nutshell.
At no moss, our purpose is our peoples purpose. That means that every day, were looking for ways to help you find your purpose, and spend your life in its pursuit and maximisation. We call that the #PursuitOfTheUngooglable. Were less a company than an anarchist commune of highly driven people who have aligned purposes. Together, were looking at radically new ways to create economic value together, in four major patterns consultancy, products, innovation, and doing good.
What was a hypothesis three short years ago is now a consultancy on the AFR Fast 100 @ #86, and #9 on the Deloitte Tech Fast 50 Rising Stars, an interactive arts & games studio written about in PC Powerplay featuring an unprecedented 32 games created in 16 months, an innovation program delivering outcomes to The Centre of Independent Studies, the CSIRO and Hello Sunday Morning (the winner of Googles Impact Challenge) as well as founding, funding and supporting over 4,500 micro-volunteers in six countries to complete nearly 20,000 acts of good via our non-profit, Cause Corps.
About 10% of our profits go directly toward our non-profit partners, including One Child and Cause Corps; and our skilled volunteering opportunities are directed toward the latter.
As a consultancy, we provide a special rate card accessible only to non profits, helping everything from Indigenous students get connected to scholarships to teaching kids about recycling and ocean plastic via games.
We hire for people who want to learn and grow and #DoTheUngooglable; and we have a deep culture of teaching a rolling stone gathers no moss, looking after each other its okay to not be okay, and customer delight a certain polish.
you need.
A consultancy, a product incubator, an innovation hub that prizes three things: * a system of radical transparency. We talk about the customers we lose openly and the reasons why we lost them so we can talk about how to improve together; we publish our games (failed or successful) online to demonstrate our learning journey; we have an internally transparent salary grading and rate card, allowing everybody to know what everybody else makes for themselves and for the company. We make all this and more visible all the time to allow our people to focus instead on making things (and each other) better.
* a place that values drive. On your first day, expect to be handed a blank sheet of paper and asked: what is your purpose in life? Youll be asked to think about it, and declare it openly and hang it on the office wall, alongside those of every other no mosser. Youll spend your career with us in its renewal, pursuit, refinement and sometimes rejection of this declared purpose as you discover something else. Along the way, youll gain mastery of your craft (if you dont already have it); perhaps a mastery of a (few) new crafts; and definitely mastery of teaching others what you know.
* an ecosystem of wholeness. We like you for all of you; not just the work face youve been putting on. We like that you were a childhood piano prodigy, or had a previous career in construction. We respect that you dedicate your spare time to writing science fiction, or what you really care about is surfing with your children. We admire that your purpose is to take people off the streets, to create safe environments for people to grow and excel, or to challenge the notion that work-life balance isnt just life balance. Theres room for diversity of thought at no moss, and were privileged to continually better our ecosystem toward that end.
you like.
Getting stuff done. A rigorous process that uplifts people and enables them to be the rolling stone that attains a certain polish. You want to add to these organisational learnings and make us better. You want to share what you already know for the betterment of your colleagues, freely and joyfully. You enjoy putting the extra (smartly chosen) mile in to not work hard, but work effectively. You like conversations where we celebrate failing personal, team-based, organisational and subsequent learning.
you expect.
Other people who are purpose driven. People who value psychological safety. A place where people are good at listening and incredible at taking appropriate action. To be free to challenge the status quo and each other to greater things. An ecosystem of people who are outside their comfort zone nearly all the time, working mostly in their learning zone, occasionally edging into their terror zone.
we like.
People who dont need us; but are connected to our story and are inspired to be part of a community. People who want to give back to ecosystems that are finding new, more human ways of working.
we expect.
People who do what they say and say what theyll do. Outcome driven people who have a history of trying resulting in both successes and learnings from their failures. People who love any one of strategic consulting, products and computer gaming, and technological innovation.
we need.

You have had a history of leading technology teams on projects from small single-developer projects up through to large projects with multiple squads, each with around six developers (or if you don’t already have this experience you are excited to develop it).
You have worked in Scrum and/or Kanban environment, not just for their buzzword but for measurable, empirical outcomes. If you havent, we will teach you.
We are open to people who have never formally done this role but aspire to, as well as people who have experience in this role well grade and craft the role for you assuming a cultural growth alignment (not just cultural fit) with us.
We work with clients, from visionary founders with a dream, to budding scale ups with millions in funding and market traction, to well established enterprises in the top ASX 20. We work across a wide variety of industries, from retail to non profit to banking to aged care.
