The Workbrew Crew

A Remote-First Team

Workbrew was founded in 2023 by three former GitHubbers who wanted to build the missing enterprise features on top of Homebrew, the most popular package manager on macOS.

Deeply connected to our roots in Homebrew, several of our team members are current maintainers. Our CEO, John Britton, has contributed to Homebrew, and our COO, Vanessa Gennarelli, serves on Homebrew's Project Leadership Committee.

Workbrew 1.0 shipped in November 2024, and since then we've created a culture that values getting things done—efficiently, thoughtfully, and remotely.

Crew members report from all over the world: currently the US, Barbados, the Philippines, Iceland and many more. While we do not have an office, we do hire from almost anywhere.

Careers

We're a remote-first team that's spread across North America, Europe, and Asia.

Here's what we value in our work:

We’re building technology in a time when honest and ethical behavior is paramount. If faced between reaching growth goals on the one hand, and upholding principles on the other, choose the honorable path.

Negotiate fairly, in good faith, and keep your commitments. If you must break a commitment, alert the parties promptly and realign.

Be judicious in what we offer. In other words, don’t give away today what you might have to take away tomorrow. If we can’t provide service at a high level of quality, don’t do it. Mistakes are okay, hiding them is not. We can’t learn from mistakes if we don’t openly address them.
