Faces behind the API
Contentful was started by Sascha and Paolo out of dissatisfaction with the existing web-focused CMSs. Those didn't fit for the new web – the web of mobile, interactive, multichannel content.
I was working with web content management systems in an agency. In particular, I was making them talk mobile. I was fed up with building custom backends and basically doing the same thing over and over again.

Curiosity
We always keep learning and growing, and never get too smug about it

Being human
We promote friendly, human approach in everything we do — within work and beyond
Being open and transparent
We do our best to be open with one another — and with the rest of the world as well
Having fun
We believe it’s essential that everyone enjoys what they’re doing — otherwise why be bothered?
