Work is a place where we spend a lot of time, so we don’t want to create just code or another layer of PCB. We are committed to what we do, enjoy each other’s company, and are delighted by the opportunity to witness the final results of our efforts. We are guided by values that enable us to create quality that brings customers back to us. How do we create it?
We value partnership and jointly defined goals. We understand our customers’ needs and know that working together makes it easier to achieve the intended effect. By taking a holistic approach to projects, our engineers design solutions with consideration for various factors, including the reliability, safety, and efficiency of the proposed components or actions.
This applies not only to code. Although code review is an obvious necessity, quality control in electronics, testing, and pair programming at the low level are equally important.
We are agile and respond efficiently to changes, which are more common in the business world than exceptions. Sprints, regular meetings, discussions, and customer demos are integral parts of our work.
Definitely yes! And on a serious note, version control is a mandatory aspect of our work. Branching is as important as breakfast!
To deliver quality, a second person is necessary to catch the little things that might slip by. Sometimes it’s the helping hand of a tester, other times it’s automated tests (and someone who kindly wrote them), and at other times, specialized equipment for testing electronics is required.
We like to set the bar high, even with the technologies you see below. We constantly develop knowledge and competencies with a #masterwork attitude. This doesn’t mean we close ourselves off to new technologies. Our initial tech stack and flexibility in every use case provide limitless possibilities for creation!
Our quality is built by a skilled team and modern laboratory and technological equipment. The culmination of our approach and #masterwork is the status of the Research and Development Center, granted in 2016 and maintained by subsequent decisions of the Ministry of Entrepreneurship and Technology. Thanks to this, we can carry out R&D work on terms identical to those of higher education institutions.
Skillful use of expert knowledge to create new products and services translates into the success of our company and the systematic increase in competitive advantage. Our original solutions are used by both public and private institutions.
Our R&D Center will be great support in the implementation of projects that fit into, among other things, Innovation Vouchers. We also have the authority to issue opinions on innovation.
We design and execute documentation in the Altium Designer environment, prototype launches, and
small-scale production of electronic circuits. We deal with the creation of mechanical elements and housings (from design to completion) along with technical documentation in the Solid Edge environment.

We consciously choose modern architecture, based on a cloud-native and serverless approach. We know how important automatic scaling and HA are. However, if for some reason (computational issues, costs, or other types of limitations) this is not the best solution, we choose containers and Kubernetes, which helps to launch and tame distributed systems with high reliability in the spirit of Cloud Agnostic.
We are fans of microservices, but it would be a lie to say that this is boundless love. We can see their flaws and are not afraid to reach for the monolith – as long as it is modular. When making decisions regarding architecture and design patterns, good practices defined in the Well-Architecture Framework and 12-factor app methodology guide us, and ADRs are easy for us;).
This is an approach that we implement every day. Why? Because it enables the implementation of true DevOps; opens the gates to Continuous Deployment and Blue-Green Deployment. We like to weave linters and tools for static code analysis into pipelines, also from a security perspective, to make room between Dev and Ops also for Sec.
What does our communication look like? We won’t reveal the team’s secret, but we can say that the front end often talks to the back end with the help of GraphQL. We find particular pleasure in using subscriptions, as they allow us to achieve a special harmony between the front end and the back end.
We like diversity and polyglot persistence – for different types of conditions and challenges, we carefully select programming languages and technological tools. We adapt databases to the microservice, or going even further, sometimes to a specific use case. We have no scruples about keeping data in either relational or document databases. We are not afraid to keep data in an event store or in files, but we do not want to be brave like that blind horse – we choose tools to efficiently overcome
obstacles rather than crash into them.
You could say that we are true polyglots. We use Kotlin, TypeScript, Python, C#, Go, C++, Java with and without Script with equal pleasure, and importantly, we are not afraid to learn new languages. Regardless of this openness, we also have our favorites in which we specialize. In our teams, we have real experts who have cut their teeth on various technologies and are always eager to share their experience.
For us, this is not just a recruitment advertisement element. We focus on quality, which we understand as something more than unit and integration tests. It also includes code formatting, performance audits, or security. We like automation and gladly use it wherever it can bring real added value – and not just out of our own laziness. E2E tests are a must-have.
In our projects, both Azure and Google appear, but lately, we have been working with AWS the most. We especially appreciate tools for IaaC, such as CDK, and services that allow buffering reliable scalable solutions in the spirit of serverless like DynamoDB, AppSync, S3, SQS, SNS. We are very excited about tools that support building IoT solutions like AWS IoT Core and IoT Greengrass.
