Because we care about beautiful code
we hack with intention

we show up with confident humility
Our name, maitria, comes from the sanskrit word maitri (pronounced like “my tree”), meaning unconditional friendliness, loving-kindness, connection. The name Maitreya comes from this same root. We use words like these to remember the mindfulness that we want to bring to our work.
