Our collaborative team environment features the delivery of working software weekly, using an incremental, iterative approach.

We strive to share our knowledge with each other, becoming a better team each Sprint.

• Unleash the power of Agile software development as you learn from our Scrum Master, Bill Johnson, who incorporates XP, Kanban and Lean practices with Scrum and lists his personal mentors as Jeff Sutherland, the creator of Scrum, and Rich Sheridan, author of “Joy, Inc.”
• Be instrumental in creating a transformative set of investing tools for the individual, amateur investor, using programming languages like Kotlin, Java, JavaScript, and HTML5.
• Be an active advocate of mobile platforms both internally and externally through developer communities.
• Be an active learner in all technologies related to mobile development.
