Who We Are

We’re not a huge company, and we like it that way. Being small means everyone gets to wear different hats, try new things, and actually see the impact of their work. It also means you really get to know the people you work with — not just their job titles, but their quirks, jokes, and go-to donut picks. There’s no endless layers of approvals or corporate red tape here, just a team that trusts each other to figure things out together. Some days it’s heads-down problem solving, other days it’s Mario Kart tournaments in the lounge, but either way, we’re building something worth showing up for. And yes, the steady flow of coffee and snacks definitely helps.

Building a Place
We Want to Work

We’ve all worked somewhere that made us count down the hours until 5:00. That’s not what we’re about. Our why is simple: if we’re going to spend a big part of life at work, it should be somewhere that makes you laugh, learn, and actually enjoy the day.

Our Values

Think of these as our house rules. They help us stay curious, do great work, and be decent humans while we’re at it. They’re not just words on a page. They show up in how we treat each other and how we take care of our customers. These values keep us focused, remind us what matters, and make sure we’re building something we can all be proud of.

Level Up

Always improving, always learning. We’re big believers in growth, whether it’s picking up new skills, refining old ones, or just finding smarter ways to work. Progress over perfection, always.

Master Your Craft

Know your stuff and own it. We take pride in being experts at what we do. That means staying curious, pushing ourselves to get better, and showing up with confidence and accountability.

Make It Count

Deliver exceptional value. We don’t just check boxes, we aim to make a real impact. Every project, every conversation, every decision is a chance to do something meaningful.

Be Human

Authentic, kind, no jerks. We lead with empathy and treat people with respect. We’re all about real connections, good vibes, and creating a space where everyone feels welcome.

No Smoke and Mirrors

Clear, truthful, no games. We keep things honest and transparent, no fluff, no hidden agendas. What you see is what you get, and we think that’s the best way to build trust.

Last Friday of the Month Lunch

Once a month, we wrap up the week with a catered team lunch — free food, good vibes, and a chance to hang out with everyone outside of the daily grind. From food trucks to local spots, it’s always something different (and always delicious).

Social Events

We love a good excuse to get together. From summer socials at Gametime or a night of bowling, to annual Christmas parties, pumpkin carving contests, and gingerbread house competitions — we’re all about mixing a little fun and friendly competition into the calendar.

Milestone Celebrations

Big wins deserve big celebrations. Whether it’s hitting new user milestones or recognizing teammate workaversaries, we mark the moment with company-branded swag that’s actually cool. From cozy hoodies and Ember mugs that keep your coffee hot all day, to custom Port 443 Vans — we make sure milestones feel special (and stylish).

Meet the Team

These are the faces that make Port 443 what it is — the people who bring our ideas to life, keep things running, and make this more than just a place to work. You’ll usually find us with a coffee in hand and something cool in the works.
