Liveblocks

At Liveblocks, we're building tools to help companies create amazing real-time collaborative products, so that people using those products can feel more connected and work better together.

Liveblocks is growing quickly and is backed by some of the best investors including Boldstart, Seedcamp, and individuals who’ve worked at companies like Figma, Github, Vercel, Facebook, Segment, and more.

Who we are

We're a small globally distributed team with a passion for creative tools that foster collaboration. We're makers ourselves, and it's fair to say that we sweat the details in everything we do. Whether it be when designing a landing page for the website, obsessing over the right abstractions for our APIs, and everything in between.

More importantly, we're parents, chefs, immigrants, actors, partners, athletes, coaches, musicians, artists who are excited to share and learn about one another's varied experiences, backgrounds, and passions.

Our team strongly believes that the most diverse and inclusive teams build the world’s best products and companies - we see this everyday! We also recognize that we have an opportunity to represent even more facets of diversity on our team and are committed to equitable and inclusive practices throughout our teammates' experience at Liveblocks.

As a globally distributed company, we are intentional in connecting with one another- synchronously and asynchronously- and have regular off-sites to meet each other in person.

About our founders

Steven (CEO) is a doting uncle who loves to travel and is an avid fan of his hometown football (soccer) team, Rodez. He lives in Paris and has been making creative tools since 2014. Before that, he was running Easee, a web animation tool for designers that was acquired in April 2016 by InVision, which eventually led him to work on design systems and tooling at Facebook Messenger.

Guillaume (CTO) immigrated to Montréal from France and enjoys testing out recipes from the cultures that surround him. When he’s not playing chess or trying out something new like bungee jumping, he’s diving into leading and supporting his team in finding pragmatic and elegant solutions to challenging technical problems. He’s led engineering teams and projects at various companies such as InVision, Breather, and Landr.

Our culture

We believe that the best companies invest early and intentionally in a strong, people-centric cultural foundation that is aligned to business goals. We are currently defining our values, our ways of working, and committed to equitable and inclusive processes and practices that foster belonging throughout our teammates' experience at Liveblocks. For us, diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and accessibility needs to be embedded in everything we do. Curious to know more? Email us at [email protected]!
