How we work
During the last two years, we’ve found that we all crave flexibility in when and where we work. Our Flexible First approach redefines how we think about work, enabling individuals to create a balance that best suits their working style and preferences. As a Marqetan, you have the choice to work remotely, from a Flex Studio co-working space, or from one of our global offices, depending on your location. Our offices are located in Oakland, CA, London, UK, and Melbourne, Australia.
Great product, leadership and company culture
I have loved my time at Marqeta so far! The product has a great market fit and is a true leader in its category. They hire smart, driven, and talented people across all levels and employees are encouraged to take on new challenges and invest in their personal growth, which is extremely important. I appreciate how the leadership team takes action and makes improvement based on employee feedback and genuinely cares about the people at the company.
Best company in the East Bay
Marqeta is doing fintech right. The business is growing really well and the people are some of the best I’ve worked with. Challenging, fulfilling work. One of the best companies in the Bay Area and hands down the best in the East Bay. This company is being built to last and I’m proud to be a part of helping it do that.

Values we live by
Intentional Curiosity
We believe in asking the questions others shy away from. True progress comes from understanding today’s realities, while challenging ourselves to do better and take on the status quo.
Thoughtful Responsibility
We believe that every interaction with our technology and platforms matters. Businesses and livelihoods rely on our work, so we strive for excellence and accountability every day with the highest standards for failsafe technology and compliance.
Innovative Simplicity
We believe that simplicity is powerful, especially in innovation—making a tool work better or finishing that feature that makes everyone smile. Our customers face a lot of complexity. We’re not here to add more.
Shared Success
We believe the measure of our success is the success of our employees, customers, and communities. From local businesses to big corporates, our impact goes deep and wide. And we’ve got the results to prove it.
Passion to Thrive
We believe anyone with a better idea should be able to change the game for our company and our customers. We solve big problems for our customers, and draw energy from that challenge and opportunity.

Praise
We believe in generously recognising each other’s talents and contributions, and sharing the goodness we see.
