Team Structure and Way of Work

• Small, cross-functional teams take complete ownership of their focus area - and collaborate with product, data science, and UX to set goals and develop the most effective solutions to reach them.
• Cross-team guilds focus on excellence in specific areas (languages, platforms), and provide an additional avenue of collaboration.
• Teams are driven by, and measured on, results - not volume of work.
