Culture

Small by design.

BYT is one person. There's no team culture in the usual sense — no all-hands, no career ladder, no committee to build consensus with. What's here instead is a set of standards, applied the same way every day, because there's no one else to enforce them.

Ownership, unfiltered

There's no hand-off and no committee. Every decision — what to build, what to trade, what to shut down — has one name on it.

Written down, not remembered

With no one else to ask, nothing lives only in someone's head. Strategies, assumptions, and post-mortems get documented as a matter of survival, not process theater.

Built, not bought

Data pipelines, scanners, dashboards, and monitoring are built and maintained in-house. A vendor platform is a shortcut with someone else's assumptions baked in.

Comfortable is a warning sign

If a week goes by without some assumption getting genuinely stress-tested, that's treated as a problem — not a quiet one.

The work is the culture

No office, no all-hands, no career ladder. What's here instead: a standard applied the same way whether anyone's watching or not.
