How to apply

If you're feeling aligned to our values and Inde seems like the kind of place for you, apply via Seek with a resume and cover letter.

If you're thinking of using AI to write your cover letter, that's awesome - because we're all about innovation. However, rather than sending the output, we're keen for you to just send us the prompt you would have used instead.

After reviewing your application we'll reach out for a conversation if we appear to be well matched. Note that only applications received via Seek can be considered.

Inde will be closed for the holidays from 19 December. We'll be responding to applications when we return on Monday 12 January. Thanks for your patience.

We want candidates to be the best version of themselves during the hiring process. We value diversity and our selection processes are fair, inclusive, and free from bias.
