# Astrafy DNA ## 1. We take Ownership We believe in **full accountability**. Own your projects, your decisions, and your outcomes. When you take responsibility, you pave the way for personal and team success. ## 2. We are Solution-seekers Never come to your manager with a problem without a solution—unless you’ve genuinely exhausted all options or face a technical barrier. **Do not do:** – “Hey {Manager}, I have seen that this dbt test is failing, do you know why?” **Do:** – “Hey {Manager}, I have seen that this dbt test is failing. I have checked and found duplicated rows in the orders table. I’ve created a small PR to remove the duplicates— do you think this is the appropriate solution?” Analyze the problem, propose a solution, and if needed, ask for guidance without shifting responsibility. Your initiative in problem-solving is what drives us forward. ## 3. We are proactive If something breaks in production, don’t wait for someone to point it out. **Take the lead**, identify the issue, and drive toward a resolution. The most valuable team members are those who find and act on the right tasks without being told. ## 4. We Collaborate and Communicate Great ideas and solutions emerge when we work together. * **Collaborate**: Share your progress, insights, and challenges with your colleagues. * **Communicate**: Be clear, concise, and constructive in your interactions. **Do’s**: Regularly update your team, ask for feedback, and contribute to discussions.\ **Don’t**: Work in silos or withhold critical information that might help others overcome challenges. ## 5. We Continuously Learn and Improve The world of data and technology never stands still, and neither do we. * **Embrace Growth**: Take every opportunity to learn—whether through training, experimenting with new tools, or reflecting on past projects. * **Learn from Failure**: Treat setbacks as valuable lessons that propel you toward better solutions. \ By investing in your personal and professional development, you help us all evolve.
