The Team
Our team of developers is hand-picked from the best we encounter. They often start with us straight out of school or in the first year or two when they are skilled, hungry, and ready to be mentored. That allows us to bring them into our culture and help them advance far quicker than they would in most companies. We are not investing in them as an employee but as a person. This approach helps us to bring along developers early in their careers in a way that rewards them greatly while also providing a bargain for our customers. We do not look for the cheapest resources. Instead, our team works closely to solve complex problems in a way that also keeps each member growing toward the best they can be.
The team has been through several projects and is intentionally kept current in modern technology while being pushed to learn more and add more solutions to their toolbox. Our goal is to provide teams that can address our customers’ problems in a way that also fits their budget.
