Our Values
Ambition: we aim big, because otherwise, where is the fun?
Progress: we care more about the grit, the steep learning curve, the resilience and creativity muscles, than the current status or where you come from.
Humble confidence: we know our strengths and always strive for excellence, but we also know there’s so much we don’t know yet
Pay it forward: we’ve all started somewhere, people gave us a hand when we needed one, we don’t forget this, and reinforce this positive cycle
Not taking ourselves too seriously: we are ambitious, restless learners and hustlers, but at the end of the day, our health (physical and mental), and our loved ones are what matter the most.
About Lago
At Lago, we’re on a mission to make billing simpler, more transparent, and more adaptable for SaaS companies.
As the leading open-source billing platform, we empower businesses to build flexible pricing models and scale with confidence. We’ve raised over $22 million in funding from top-tier investors, reflecting strong confidence in our vision and growth.
Our platform has garnered over 7,000 stars on GitHub, a testament to our active and growing developer community. Next-gen companies such as Mistral.ai, Together.ai, Groq, and Laravel chose Lago for their billing.
We’re a team of ambitious, focused individuals who work together to solve hard problems with excellence and accountability. At Lago, we value reliability and proactivity—we trust each other to own tasks, drive them to completion, and adapt quickly. While we encourage you to try fast and “fail fast”, we also expect you to learn fast: make mistakes, but don’t make the same one twice.
If you’re excited by challenges and want to grow alongside a high-performing, supportive team, this is the place for you.
