How we work
We have daily standups at 9:45 EET.
The primary communications channel at the company is Slack, it connects team members, partners, clients, and our robots.
The workflow depends on the particular project and the stakeholders. We have real Scrum experience, but lately, many clients prefer a simple Trello board.
We demand properly specified tasks and stories from the stakeholders and from each other.
What will you learn
A wide-angle of the Software Development lifecycle: apart from coding, CI/CD, and basic code quality measures, you can learn here about requirement engineering, a dead-simple framework for writing good specs, and how not to fall into the trap of overengineering.
Ideal candidate
Rascals and good chaps are equally welcome; hypocrites discouraged.
It's ok not knowing things, but be open to admitting it. Then we can work together on the improvement.
We may decide to try or switch over to new technologies, so ideally you're eager to learn new things rather than sticking with one technology for 10 years.
Also, be a party face, our workshops go crazy sometimes 👯 🐩 💃👽🎸
You can start at
Do not apply, if...
- You have less than 2 years of Laravel experience
- You don't know what PSR-4 is
- You don't have a SOLID PHP experience
- You don't want to write tests for your code
