Our Story

We believe that diversity is becoming more important in a future
where technology is advancing and all possibilities are expanding,
and we were founded in 2018 with the mission of creating an infrastructure
for a society that accepts diverse values as they are.

"KabuK" comes from the traditional Japanese drama "Kabuki".
"Kabuku" means "leaning a little bit", and our aim is to create a society
that respects living a slightly different and cool lifestyle.
At KabuK, we are committed to creating products that are necessary
for a society where diversity is fully accepted.

Working at KabuK

At KabuK, we value three principles: "Diversity," "Professionalism," and "Identity."
These principles are rooted in the way we work at KabuK.
To create an environment where diverse talent is accepted,
we have a unique system where everyone works remotely.

To make this system work, we need to have strong trust in each other,
and everyone is expected to act professionally.
We also respect the fact that everyone comes from different backgrounds
and has different values, and we encourage expressing one's identity.
If you are interested in what we value, you will surely enjoy working with the KabuK team.
