Their UI is created in JSP, with some GWT, but they are currently evaluating a move to using Angular, React or Vue. Our products are built on RedHat Enterprise Linux.

They have a strategy aimed at optimising the variety of technologies that we use, maximising the use of open source solutions such as Postfix, PostgreSQL, Apache Traffic Server and ActiveMQ, while actively contributing back to the community. They are big fans of continuous integration and continuous deployment & use Jenkins, Chef and GitHub to help them with that.

How they work

They use Scrum and Kanban, with a few techniques borrowed from Less. This allows them to create flexibility and variety of work for everyone on the team. Their sprints last two weeks and finish with a demo or mini talk about what they achieved. They constantly optimise their processes to enable the team to focus on what they do best – solving real customer problems using code.

Every member of the team is given, and proactively encouraged to use, ten innovation days per year to learn about, or work on, anything they want that is related to their career. Their team use these days to achieve a wide range of things, from fixing bugs in product and development environments, learning new skills and technologies or coming up with truly innovative ideas and prototypes that later become part of their products.

Technical lunches take place regularly and feature an abundance of ideas and knowledge sharing, along with tons of pizza!
