How we work

• The product team works very closely with our technology and delivery teams to ensure the happiness and success of our customers. We encourage these small teams to manage their own workload, make their own decisions as many times as possible as we do not like micromanagement.
• Our software development teams work using the Agile methodology (mostly Scrum), our team works based on our strategic roadmap that we curate together based on business priorities
• We use industry standard software to manage our software projects (Jira), project specifications and documentation (Confluence) and to run our communications (Slack). We have weekly status meetings where we share progress, success stories and highlight problems but at the same time we would like to fight meeting fatigue and focus on delivering as much work with as little meetings as possible.
• When we work on large-scale, overarching projects we tend to get together in Budapest or in our R&D offices in Szeged. During these occasions we usually discuss several, high-impact initiatives and align on them. Of course we leave ample time to get to know each other, to build cohesion in our team and to have fun
