WORKING AT ONLOOK We're based in San Francisco, the startup capital of the world, and work closely together in person. We have a very cool office near South Park – it has ultra tall ceilings, tons of natural light, great restaurants and groceries stores just a block away, a full-kitchen, and even a shower. Employees get bespoke black bomber jackets with the Onlook crest embroidered on them, their own standing desk, monitor, budget for tech, and more swag. You must be willing to move to San Francisco if you are not already here. Onlook's values are a reflection of our founding team and the cultures of the companies we've come from. Speed, technical excellence, brand, and attention to detail are what uniquely set Onlook apart.

Onlook is on a mission to bring more people together in code. We built a visual editor that anyone can use to contribute code to real codebases – or, just create a website super fast. Since launching, we've been the #1 trending repo on GitHub for multiple days, we were #1 on Hacker News, and have had tens of thousands of people craft incredible websites with Onlook.
