Engineering teams where coworkers are also friends outside of work

It may be cliché, but we genuinely feel lucky to work with people who feel like family.

Going to work is that much better when there are genuine friendships and camaraderie among co-workers – that’s why we invest so heavily in building relationships. Our office in Gilbert, Arizona (just outside of Phoenix) was recently renovated and transformed from a vacant building into an open, modern space, designed specifically for collaboration and cross-team functioning.

Sibi employees often arrive early to make their morning coffee and chat about the latest and greatest before work. At lunch time, you will find the team gathered around the big dining table. In the afternoon, many like to take a break to grab a quick game of ping pong before jumping into the next task. Whether you’re on the same team or not, you’ll always find someone who is happy to chat and share what they’re working on.

After hours, the Sibi crew can often be found grabbing drinks for happy hour together, having game nights at the office, gathering for a round of fight nights, collaborating on hot crypto buys, long-boarding down quiet streets, hiking local trails or just hanging out together. We’ve even attended each other’s weddings!

As a remote employee based in Austin, Charlie knew he was walking into something special the first time he set foot in the Arizona office. “I could tell I was walking into a family – it felt natural and organic,” he says. “It’s evident that people have invested a great deal of their time, energy, and resources into Sibi and are proud to work here.” There’s a lot of fun going on, but also a strong emphasis on working and getting things done the right way.

Several Sibi team members attended Rye’s wedding (one of our designers).
