About Code Coven

About our workplace

Code Coven is a collaborative workplace with internal mentorship, clear expectations, and individual agency. We are a team of experts in our respective roles and value clear communication and kindness. Staff are spread across time zones, and individuals are expected to be self-directed and work asynchronously to complete tasks, while any necessary in-person meetings over video calls are conducted during our “overlap hours”, which are generally 3 pm-7 pm BST.

Code Coven welcomes applications from people of any and all backgrounds, but are particularly interested in seeing applications from people of marginalized demographics who can personally empathize and offer guidance to our program participants.
