About us:
Flexible minds: We need to do a lot with a small team, so it’s important to use the right tools for the right job and be willing to change down the line if we find a more efficient solution. We also believe in “strong opinions, weakly held,” being humble, accepting and giving feedback.
Self-driven: Developers are given a large amount of autonomy in how they work, who they work with, when they work, and are responsible for a large part of driving project functionality and seeing them through to completion.
Quality-focused: Quality code helps a small team do more. Increasing communication through code readability decreases the cost of maintenance to ensure we don’t work weekends.
Entrepreneurial: Developers are given complete ownership over their projects from design to implementation, testing, deployment and production maintenance.
Communicative: We believe in teamwork and sharing the experience through design reviews, code reviews and weekly technology presentations.
