YES Do you have a bug database? YES Do you fix bugs before writing new code? WE TRY, BUT… Do you have an up-to-date schedule? YES Do you have a spec? NO, (but we’re working on documentation) Do programmers have quiet working conditions? YES Do you use the best tools money can buy? YES Do you have testers? YES Do new candidates write code during their interview? YES Do you do hallway usability testing? YES http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000043.html
- 12. We Build Scalable Infrastructure We’ve built our architecture in the cloud (AWS & DigitalOcean). From Amazon AWS we integrated a bunch of services such as EC2 instances, RDS MySQL, ElastiCache, Load balancers, Elastic Beanstalk, SQS messaging, CloudFront, S3, Route 53 and auto- scaling. We use Node.js & NoSQL databases (Redis, MongoDB). We built our own PaaS using Deis. 12

- 14. We Build 14 APIs documented with Apiary.io blueprint APIs designed for speed and scalability
- 15. We Use New Technologies Nodejs & NoSQL Heroku, Deis Vagrant, Docker R language 15
- 16. We Use The Best BEST TOOLS Issues & bugs: JIRA, ServiceDesk Code reviews: GitHub Pull Requests Planning: JIRA Portfolio Wiki: Confluence A/B testing: Optimizely Enterprise Calls: Skype, Hangout DevOps: PagerDuty, Pingdom, Geckoboard Servers: AWS, Heroku, Deis 16 SEXY SERVICES Emails: SendGrid, Mailchimp SMS: Twilio, Wavecell Push notifications: Kahuna Logging & analytics: Logentries, NewRelic Messaging: Slack Anti-fraud: JOIN US TO FIND OUT
