The Department

• Product Delivery currently consists of three feature development teams and one platform team. Our primary tech stack is Ruby/Rails, React/Typescript, and AWS services. But we maintain and support a few large .NET solutions, 6 mobile applications, various micro services, and containerized functions written in various languages. We operate in a mostly hybrid manner with weekly sprints.

The Products

• Traverse – React/Typescript, Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL. That’s the high level. We do a lot of document processing and have tons of background processing queues and processes for extracting dark data from these documents.
• Mobile – We have 6 mobile applications that support not only Traverse but also our Compass solutions and a few oneoffs. We have tried out a lot of tech stacks over the years looking for that perfect fit. iOS (Objective-c, Swift), Android, Xamarin (UWP, iOS), Xamarin.Forms, and most recently React Native.
• Compass – Compass software is some of our longer standing software that supports multiple markets for both state and county customers. Our focus on reducing time wasted on paperwork and administrative burdens allows case workers to better serve families in need.

Taking Time to Give Back

• Supporting our communities is important to us and not just in the solutions we provide! We allow all employees to use 20 hours of company paid time a year for volunteer service with any organization or cause they choose. We have always encouraged and supported a strong culture of helping others.

Growing Your Skills

• We have a healthy training budget for everyone in the department. We encourage you to use this against books, tutorials, classes, tests, or any certification that you’re interested in.

Taking Time to Innovate

• Every 5 weeks or so the entire department participates in what we like to call Innovation Days. This is an opportunity for you to work on anything that looks interesting to you. This could be a new pattern, language, framework, or some small bit of code that is just bugging you. It’s really up to you as to how you want to spend this time. Because the entire department participates at the same time it’s also a great opportunity to pair up with members from other teams.
