Integrity and quality of our work
“We have a unique team structure and working environment that has allowed me to collaborate on a number of different, interesting projects. Employees are extremely approachable, helpful and willing to share knowledge with anyone curious.”
“I like that I'm involved with whatever I'm working on from concept to deployment. There's also a good code review culture here--the reviews are thorough and fair, and a lot of personal and professional development is generated from that process.”
“I'm excited about what we can do with data at a huge scale. We are automating decisions that impact and help our customers. Processes that took days are now completed before lunch. That's massive!“
