Location

Working with Austin startups.

Austin runs on Central Time, the same clock as our Chicago base. That makes the working relationship as simple as it gets: same hours, same day, no scheduling math.

Time zone

Central Time (CT)

Overlap with Holdfast

Same time zone as our Chicago base. Full working-day overlap.

Same time zone, no friction

Austin and Chicago share Central Time. Every call, every decision, every Slack reply happens inside your own working day. The Bhubaneswar engineering window then runs overnight, so progress never stops.

Built for a fast-growing scene

Austin’s startup scene moves quickly and hires competitively. A sprint adds delivery capacity for a specific feature without a recruiting cycle in a tight talent market.

Hyde Park student housing referral flow, 14 days, exactly on time

This one ran tight and still landed on day 14. The buffer was in the plan from day 1. That is the difference between a deadline and a hope.
