Our team works with 90-day goals, and you will be a key player in defining and refining the backlog that will address outcomes for our business model.
We believe good developers need clear requirements, but also focused time and space to do their best work. Accordingly, you vocalize when you need to clarify uncertain requirements, you help find solutions to translate our designers' specifications into working features and determine what work setting works best for you to get the job done.
