In The City-State of DBC, the health and safety of our team, citizens and communities is a top priority. This priority has become increasingly important as we continue to face the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. DBC believes vaccination is the best way to reduce the spread of COVID-19 and protect our team, our communities, our families and ourselves. To minimize the risk of transmission of the COVID-19 virus and maintain a safe and healthy workplace, vaccination is required for this role. (At DBC, fully vaccinated means it has been at least two weeks since you have received the second dose of a two-dose vaccine such as Moderna or Pfizer, or the single dose of a single dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson).

Here's how our values are used to define each of us.

Autonomous - make our own rules
Brave - we critique our work to learn
Curious - we solve the right problems
Confident - we use facts over fiction
Persistent - we finish what we start
