About the Company
We own and develop a smart home app, which is at the forefront of company's IoT experience. We are proud of what we have built so far; we have an App Store and Google Play rating of 4.6 and 4.3 stars respectively, we have more than 1 million active users worldwide and our IoT platform has over 3 million connected company's machines. We have huge ambition to grow this platform and as we connect more machines from more categories the challenge is significant.
Our Team
There are currently 8 scrum teams working on the app, located in the UK, Poland and Singapore, each with up to 8 software engineers specialised in iOS development, Android development or mobile testing/automation, plus a scrum master and product owner. We all come from a variety of educational backgrounds and experience levels; not all of us are computer science graduates. We believe that teams composed of people from diverse backgrounds are more successful and innovative.
Our teams have the autonomy to manage their own work using frameworks such as Scrum or Kanban, each honing their ways of working through regular retrospectives and knowledge sharing. We all share a commitment to creating highquality code, and engineers choose to follow practices such as pair programming, mobbing, and testdriven development. We also regularly share our knowledge and interests peertopeer through our developer Communities, which have led to the adoption of new technologies and improved crossteam collaboration.
We often need to interact with people from different parts of the business, such as embedded software and the cloud teams, so we plan in 5sprint increments, based on the best bits of the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). This gives us more visibility of upcoming work while remaining responsive, and allows us to collaborate effectively with other teams within our 15,000person organisation.
