Careers at Tagaste
Build for the Church.
Tagaste works across parish software, Catholic Index, and Catholic media. The work spans engineering, design, operations, photography, and film.
The work
The work spans three areas.
Church infrastructure
Catholic Index structures parish schedules, people, sacraments, media, and location data across eight countries.
Research and media
Daily Scripture editions, parish photography, and documentary work about Catholic people and places.
How we work
What we expect.
Good judgment matters as much as technical skill.
Take the Church seriously
The Church is not a market vertical or an aesthetic. Her language, obligations, people, and limits have to be understood from the inside.
Make it testable
Turn the idea into something another person can use, question, and improve.
Work across disciplines
A problem may begin in software and end in parish operations, theology, design, photography, or film. Be willing to follow it.
Know where AI should stop
Automate routine work. Leave pastoral judgment and responsibility with people.
The stage
Where Tagaste is now.
Tagaste is founder-led, with working products and more work than one person can carry. The first collaborators will help determine what the company becomes.
This will suit people who can work without much structure, finish what they start, and own problems outside a formal title.
