Jobs at Lightspeedhq

What Lightspeedhq's application asks

Across the 12 application forms Otto has filled at Lightspeedhq: 43 distinct questions, 6 of them usually required. A single application works out at about 2 minutes once you have your details to hand. It runs on Ashby.

31 are Lightspeedhq’s own, not boxes every form has:

• lettre de motivation
• localisation (ville)
• what are you salary expectations?
• when are you free to start?
• si vous avez choisi employé lightspeed, événement lightspeed ou autre, peux-tu préciser ici:
• which best describes your experience with modern analytics engineering workflows?
• if you chose lightspeed employee, lightspeed event, or other, please specify here:
• autre lien (github, portfolio...)

and 23 more.

Read off the forms themselves, last checked 2026-09-14, because Otto fills them in and has to read them first. Roles differ, so the estimate is per application rather than for the list above: each question counts for its cost times how often this employer actually requires it. A written answer is 2½ minutes, a dropdown 12 seconds, a yes/no 5 seconds, attaching a file 45 seconds. The list leaves out name-and-email boxes and anything Ashby puts on every employer’s form.
