HIRING PHILOSOPHY

Our recruitment goal is to hire people who are not only experienced and talented but also excited by the constant evolution of the software industry. With this in mind, our core philosophy is to:

• Hire passionate developers and support staff and compensate them well;
• Maintain a core team with strong crop-insurance knowledge and experience; and
• Provide an environment that rewards creativity, encourages professional growth, and continually challenges the status quo.

The key to realizing our goals is the people we employ. We seek out the brightest, most passionate people in their fields to join our team.
