Every line of code is peer-reviewed to ensure the highest quality. They operate with an agile mindset, utilizing the Scrum framework to deliver continuous value to their customers.

Their flat hierarchy empowers individuals and promotes shared responsibility. They believe in assisting each other rather than micromanaging, fostering a supportive atmosphere where ideas flow freely.

• Source control, specifically Git

They seek individuals who will:

• Exhibit genuine passion for both their mission and the technologies they employ.

• Enjoy close collaboration with technical and non-technical colleagues alike.

• Be comfortable with the practices of pair programming and comprehensive code reviews.

• Possess a proactive and positive approach to problem-solving within their team and across the organization.

• Show a strong desire to continuously learn and, crucially, to contribute to the development and mentorship of other developers.

• Embrace working through complex challenges collectively as part of a team.
