How we work

Our team members are super smart, but nobody knows everything.

That’s why there are no stupid questions at Tyk. We’ll support anyone who takes the initiative and is curious to find out more. We believe that kind of freedom and trust empowers talented people to create their best work.

Tyk gives all employees the autonomy to make decisions – this means ownership and responsibility. The company is strong on trust, and there’s no micromanagement. As long as we own and take responsibility of our tasks, it doesn’t matter if we work eight hours straight, or take a two-hour break for parenting. It’s all up to you – and that’s great. It helps you build your own discipline and character.

Irvin Tan, Head of the APAC Commercial Team
Most of the time I feel productive when everybody sleeps. After around 8, 9, or 10 pm I start feeling I want to write some code. That can last until morning. I don’t have to wake up and commute to some place and sit there for an amount of hours and then commute back. I can work when I feel like working. That’s good for me and it’s good for the company because I deliver more as a result.

Vlad Ifrim, Frontend Developer
Because of Tyk, I know now what it really means to have a work/life balance. Before, I’d heard of the term but never really experienced it. Since I joined Tyk, my personal and professional life has drastically changed.
