We are organized by squads
One year and a half ago, we changed our internal organization by moving from a structure split by stack to something more features-oriented. We created cross-skill squads that are focused on specific parts of the tool to develop and maintain them more efficiently and quickly. Each of them is responsible for its roadmap, and everyone in the squad can participate in product discussions. We value ownership and an entrepreneurial mindset
