Life at Orah

We’re a fully distributed team of 20 people living and working in 7 cities around the world. We’re working together to build the best student engagement platform to bring the best out of every student through personalised care and support.

We’ve always aimed to do things a little differently at Orah. Since the early days, we’ve had a focus on building one of the most unique and fulfilling workplaces by rethinking a lot of traditional practices.

Our passion for making meaningful connections and quality products flows through everything we do, and our commitment to supporting our team and customers has been pivotal in the continued growth of Orah.

Our values

We are a global team working towards a common mission. These are the values that unite us and influence the way we work together.

Good is the enemy of great
Good is getting things done, great is getting the right things done.
Honest thoughts on the table
Don’t hold back, make sure your rationale is voiced and understood so we can move closer to what’s right.
Continuous improvement
We constantly strive to be better than we were yesterday.
You can’t buy back integrity
Integrity takes a lifetime to build and a few minutes to ruin. We strive to do the right thing in any scenario.
Questions over statements
We seek first to understand, then to be understood.
Be thrifty
We believe in getting the most out of every day and every dollar.
Bias for action
Have a bias towards action and don’t get stuck in “analysis paralysis” - just do it

Distributed company

Our headquarters are in Auckland, New Zealand, but we are a fully distributed company with team members in 7 cities across 4 countries around the world.
