About Whisk (Whisk.com)

Whisk is a thriving cooking community available on iOS/Android, Web, and Samsung hardware (Whisk was acquired by Samsung in 2019). Today we reach millions of users across many markets and languages, we have 4.8 rating in the App Store and Google Play.

Our team is 90+ people - mostly product and engineering. We’re 100% distributed - with people based in LA, UK, Russia, Serbia, Korea, Tel Aviv, and a few places in between. We’ve been working in a distributed way since 2016 and have pioneered many distributed working practices.

How we work together as a Team (Take a look at the Whisk page).

- We prefer asynchronous communication, we respect the different time zones of our colleagues;  

- Even though we are fully distributed, we tend to meet each other in person, when possible. We have Company retreats at least once per year (the previous one was in December 2021 in Cyprus) and local team meetups;

- Each new Whisk developer could become a part of the Backend Guild. As a guild, we are sharing knowledge. Together we are making decisions on tech stack, tooling, and best practices. Each Friday we are gathering for an internal virtual meetup, to discuss new technologies, and approaches or just to chat.
