UNCONFINED INNOVATION

Technologists are free to make a fast, direct impact

Gregory Bomkamp can rattle off a laundry list of the cool tech he uses in his role, but he says the most exciting aspect of his team is “the autonomy we’re given to explore innovative solutions. We never feel confined to any specific stack, technology or framework.” His team is only just beginning to “unlock the possibilities” of AI and machine learning, harnessing the immense amount of data to discover patterns and insights. On a typical day, after the morning Agile Scrum meeting, his team taps into pair programming, collaborative design and knowledge sharing to brainstorm solutions.

Engineers spend significantly less time on infrastructure and getting their ‘hello-world’ code out there — they skip straight to writing code that provides value.
