Straight from the source

“Working on the AdCreator; it is hands down the

best, most complex product in the field out there.”

On his favorite part about working at Celtra

“I have always loved to dance and perform!

In fact, my first dance recital was at 2 years old.”

On one of the many things that she loves to do

Giuseppe Furcolo,

Sr. Product Designer,

New York

Monica Leal Crombe,

Inside Sales Rep,

Media Partnerships,

Boston

“I love the company culture. I love that the company

cares about the wellness of their employees and

how Maja always checks in to see how everyone is

doing; it’s very personal.”

On her life at Celtra

“One word excited! When I came into the NYC

office to interview, the atmosphere was vibrant,

energetically charged with innovation and hungry

talent yearning to learn.”

“Lots of my previous co-workers had accents, people

at my university had accents, and my family mem-

bers have accents. I think Celtra felt familiar to me

because of the accents and the international vibe

that’s been so consistent in my life.”

On one of his favorite things about working at Celtra

“I don’t know if this is funny or not, but let’s give it a

shot. I have a terrible sense direction, but I still always

just go in general direction of my goal, rather that

using a map. Sometimes this can lead to situations

where I almost end on a highway with my bike.”

On his not-so-strong suit

Peter Frutts Aldana,

Office Manager,

San Francisco

Marko Čavdek,

Software Developer,

Ljubljana

“The on-boarding process has been terrific. On day

one I had all the tools that I needed to start working.

I appreciate all the effort that Celtra makes cross

departments to ensure new hires understand the

different facets of Celtra and the ad-tech sector.

It adds meaning to the proactive culture that Celtra

talks about.”

On his on boarding at Celtra

“My first day was almost a culture shock! I came

from a big corporation, so I was not used to an

employee-focused culture at all. I couldn’t believe

the abundance of healthy food, fresh flowers, and

espresso - my three favorite things! There were

also three birthdays within my first two weeks, so I

was convinced we had cake every couple days (my

fourth favorite thing).”

On joining the Celtra team

Will Leach,

Accounting Manager,

Boston

Courtney Cannon Booth,

Executive Assistant,

Boston

“I noticed there are a lot of tall people here

(I’m 5’4”).”

On unique observations when starting in SF

“Fun Fact: I was on Oprah once.

(I know, its a good one)”

On his 15 minutes of fame

Account Executive,

“I liked the overall look of the offices, especially the

meeting room where breakfasts are held. It is comfy!”

On first impressions of the office

“I surprise most people with my vast knowledge of

90s hip-hop lyrics.”

On something you may not have guessed

Marko Pušnik,

Software Developer,

Ljubljana

Cristy Ebert,

VP Marketing,

New York

“The team at Celtra really does feel like a “team”.

When shadowing and pair programming, everyone

has a constructive attitude and shows the utmost

respect for their peers. When learning about the

platform and filling knowledge gaps, there’s no such

thing as a bad question and everyone wants to see

you succeed. It’s just a great environment to be in!”

On his experience joining the team

“I have never worked anywhere where customers

are so overwhelmingly in love with a company, from

the products to the people. Every time I speak with

customers, I get a new rush. It is truly amazing.”

On his favorite thing about working at Celtra

Alex Litty,

Software Engineer,

San Francisco

Alex Saric,

CMO,

New York

“I chopped down a big pine tree with an axe when

on holiday in Norway this summer. If you’ve ever

tried to chop down a tree with an axe you will be

impressed by this fact.”

On an interesting accomplishment

“I like to karaoke, I’m a terrible singer and I usually

don’t know the lyrics. But I don’t care, just pass

me a mic. My go to artists: Red Hot Chili Peppers,

Nirvana, Jay-Z and once in a while I’ll put on some

Disney songs.”

On one of the things that she thoroughly enjoys

Boston, MA

With the corporate office located in the heart of Boston, there is quite a mix of team vibes and personalities,

creating a relaxing, productive and entertaining atmosphere, day in and day out!

In Q2, we had the pleasure of honoring our very own Megan St. Ledger with a team lunch which followed the

announcement of the Peer Award! Among an array of smaller gatherings and birthdays, we also celebrated

one of Celtra’s pillars, Dekyi Lhaze, as she reached her 4-year anniversary with the team!

San Francisco, CA

It’s summertime in the city of San Francisco. The weather is warm and our office is busier than ever! With

such a diverse and interesting group of individuals, it’s only natural that the events hosted are eclectic. The

team has had a product meeting in New York, a graffiti painting class to promote our “Creative Fridays”, and

even a day of rock climbing in San Francisco’s Dogpatch area!

New York, NY

Our New York office is full of energetic people that love sports! A few of our team members wake up early in

the morning and do spin class or take gym classes together before coming into a full day of work at Celtra.

On May 25th , we hosted Sports Day where the whole office was able to play sand volleyball and basketball

to exercise and to enhance our team building, inclusive of medals, trophies and Celtra branded pinafores!

Singapore

Our newest and smallest office lies in Singapore, where

Wen has been our sole representation, working relentlessly

since it’s opening in early Q2.

Similar to Sydney, we’re in a co-share, co-working space,

with lots of other start ups and western tech companies.

It’s called ‘v’ and is in the heart of the creative and hip

area of Singapore, Outram Park.

Sydney, Australia

Our team working out of the co-shared space in Sydney

made time to break from the day-to- day work focus to show

some love to the US, celebrating the 4 th of July with some

old-fashioned burgers and fries; a great way to indulge in

the “One-Celtra” sprit that was spreading across all offices

in recognition of the holiday!

Additionally, we were paid a visit from Miha in early August

– which made for a very exciting day!

Los Angeles, CA

LA is one of the smallest office but never misses a chance

to celebrate, enjoy and work to the fullest.

Taking advantage of the gorgeous LA weather, Celtra LA

enjoyed the start of summer and celebrated Yael and Kat’s

2-year anniversaries with a private sailboat ride around

Marina del Rey, Venice, and Santa Monica. We then dined

at one of our favorite restaurants in the area, El Torito!

Ljubljana, Slovenia

Celtra’s team in Ljubljana, which consists heavily

of folks from Engineering, has been very busy pro-

moting the essence of team building, and taking

advantage of the outdoors as much as possible.

From a 2-day team building events which allowed

employees to get creative, to the business run in

which 9 Celtra team members had the opportunity

to get active, to the Celtra-sponsored student hack-

athon which allowed us to selflessly promote the

Celtra product, our Ljubljana team put in everyeffort

to share our knowledge, skill and team spirit!

London, UK

The London office has been engaged in lot of busi-

ness and team activities, including charity events!

Alex from the UK team took the lead in organizing

this amazing initiative on June 6th, where her and an-

other 5 Celtra peeps started their morning at 5am in

order to cook and serve full English breakfast to 200

homeless people at the Whitechapel Homeless Cen-

tre. The next team of 6 Celtra UK people repeated

this initiative on July 6th :)
