- Do you work on-site or remotely?
To put it short, we’re flexible. We have the freedom to work remotely from the comfort of our homes, head out to work in any of our İzmir and Berlin offices whenever we want, or work in a hybrid model to get the best of both worlds.
- How do you maintain your company culture?
We believe that our company culture is what binds us together at all times. So, coming together as a team to create bonding experiences to keep our culture alive has become one of our utmost priorities. Whether it’s gathering in the office to discuss a technical topic at length, organizing legendary team retreats to blow off some steam with the crew, or hosting epic parties to celebrate being part of such an exciting and tight-knit bunch, we make sure to create memorable moments that will stay with us for years to come.

- Why do I always see your job ads stay up for so long? Do you have difficulty finding the right candidates?
It’s true that our job ads stay up. But that certainly doesn’t mean we find it hard to find the right fit for the position. We leave them up because we’re always looking for exceptional talents and want to encourage them to apply and join the team.
- What kind of project types do you have?
The project types we have are usually SaaS projects, complex web applications, enterprise-scale applications, real-time dashboards, streaming services, interactive applications, user interfaces, and the list goes on.
But when forming a partnership, our focus mainly lies on our faith in the project rather than what type of project it is. Once we believe we can develop a product that can make a difference and create a real impact, we work on any project type! So when you join us, you too will get the experience of working on several different projects and domains. This way, you’ll improve your business mindset along with your technical skills.

- What’s your salary policy like?
We have a fair USD-based salary policy designed to provide some financial peace of mind. Needless to say, we don’t have a conventional pay scale that prioritizes someone’s age or experience over their actual talents. And we also don’t have those typical fixed yearly raises. Instead, we have a startup mindset that makes us excited to share as we earn. That’s why we offer our teammates frequent raises based on their performance every 2 to 3 months throughout the year.
- How do you contribute to the community?
Long story short, we share what we know to watch our community grow. For years, we’ve been organizing educational events and meetups to guide tens of thousands using the technical know-how we’ve been gathering in the last 15 years of our practice. Because we believe that we can only rise by lifting others. And with this giveback culture embraced by everyone on our team, we never cease to play our part in strengthening the ties in our ecosystem and making an impact that matters.
