SMG swiss marketplace group (ex Ricardo)

A guild brings together people who share a common goal and a desire to spread best practices across teams. It helps share knowledge and expertise and drive positive change.

At SMG, this commitment is concrete: employees can dedicate up to 10% of their working time to guild activities.

Guilds connect people across teams and disciplines, creating opportunities to learn from each other, grow their expertise, and shape how we build and improve our platforms.

Through guilds, contributors can:

• Collaborate and communicate beyond their teams

• Share knowledge and explore technical topics and best practices

• Simplify complex cross-team challenges

• Explore new approaches and develop reusable solutions

Guilds are a key part of collaboration at SMG, giving everyone the opportunity to learn, contribute, and have an impact beyond their team.

This collaborative mindset is also reflected in our day-to-day rituals.

We believe hiring is a two-way street. That’s why we aim to keep our process efficient, transparent and as smooth as possible, reducing the time between each step.

Here’s what you can expect:

• Intro call with the Hiring Manager — an opportunity to get to know each other and answer your questions.

• Technical session — discuss how you would approach a real-life problem and pair on a practical challenge (no trick questions!).

• Team fit & HR discussion — meet the team and talk about culture, expectations and logistics.
