The Culture

What it is actually like to work here.

Drawn from how our teams work and what employees say publicly — the habits and values that show up in their day-to-day.

01

Learning is the job

Upskilling, certifications, and exposure to new stacks are part of delivery, not an afterthought. Reviewers on Glassdoor call out the learning environment and upskilling most often.

02

Ownership from day one

Small teams, direct client contact, and room to shape the product — engineers here own outcomes, not tickets.

03

Open-source DNA

We build on enterprise open source, maintain our own Liferay plugin, and contribute back to the communities we depend on.

04

Supportive teams

A generally supportive team environment with exposure to different challenges, in reviewers’ own words.

05

Recognition that lands

Regular hikes, bonuses, and promotions — the themes employees mention most in public reviews.

06

Security-first discipline

ISO 27001-certified practices mean good engineering habits are the default, which travels with you.
