We Work Remotely
Do you want to learn how to run and grow Harkla’s 7-figure Amazon sales and marketing?

We are looking to hire our 5th full-time teammate at our fast-growing, mission-driven e-commerce company.

If you are unfamiliar with Harkla, please read through our core values and principles.


HARKLA'S CORE PRINCIPLES

Harkla has one mission: Help families raise happy and healthy children with special needs.

This mission is at the core of everything we do. Every decision is centered around the question of "how does this help our customers?"

The way we differentiate ourselves from our competition is by always asking, how can we be more helpful? In customer service, our blog, or post-purchase information, we want to be more helpful. 

Harkla's Core Principles:

  • Our customers are at the core of our business. We are helping families raise children with autism. Keep this in mind with every decision.
  • You are responsible for your work. Tell what you are going to do versus asking for permission. 
  • Mistakes are OK. Not extracting lessons and implementing those into future processes is not OK.
  • Lead with questions, not answers.
  • Expect dialogues &debates. We are passionate people trying to do something great.
  • 100% of all energy and resources go to our core focus.
  • We are a systems-based company. Freedom of thought comes from a foundation of discipline.
  • Freedom and responsibility within the framework of a highly developed system. 
Make sure to look through our product catalog so you are familiar with our company.
