SVPurrfectionist

Quality assurance by sitting on keyboards. Approves nothing before 2 p.m. Believes every sprint should include a nap.

What we cover

One team, four disciplines

  • AI engineering

    Model integration, retrieval, evaluation and the automation around it.

  • Security

    Application reviews, cloud posture, secure development and privacy law.

  • Business software

    Configuring and extending SME software solutions for how each business runs.

  • Engineering and product

    Mobile, web, MVPs, modernization, and the roadmap that decides the order.

How we staff a project

Senior people, fewer of them

Two to four people per engagement

Enough to cover design, build and review; small enough that nothing gets lost between hand-offs.

Named before you sign

The proposal lists who is on the project. Changing that requires your agreement.

Generalists with a specialty

Everyone can ship a feature end to end; each person also owns one of the four disciplines above.

Based in Western Canada, working across the country

Remote by default, in English and French.
