Mateusz Czajka – Head of Technology & Product Design
Our team consists of over 500 people, and it’s full of amazingly
knowledgeable professionals. Our projects are so exciting, because we do
full-stack development, product design, implementation, and
maintenance. Our clients are world-changers in fintech, healthcare, big
data, and many other industries. They define how people learn languages,
buy furniture, or use transportation. Netguru is growing really fast, at the
same time remaining true to it’s startup-like culture.
Bartosz Pranczke – Ruby on Rails Department Manager Greta Gryz – Recruitment Marketing Specialist
I like working at Netguru because the people, the culture, and growth rate I've worked at Netguru for over a year now, and the experience couldn't be
of the organisation motivates us to improve ourselves. It is really satisfying better. I feel fulfilled when I finally manage to solve a communication crisis
to see that people around me often start as total beginners and then or tackle a difficult task. On top of that, I have a brilliant leader who
become highly experienced programmers, managers, testers, and so on. sometimes talks about her dog instead of working (and shares photos!).
The organisation and the people reinvent themselves every day.   The atmosphere in the office is amazing, but I usually work from home –
I am never bored. unless I feel like grabbing one of the free sandwiches at the office.
How pair programming looks like
Having a programming session with a potential recruit is more representative of a
coder’s skill than looking at a CV and asking a long set of questions.
A programmer from Netguru will give you a few tasks based on commercial projects
we actually work on. For 40-70 minutes, you will work on the same code, talking and
thinking a lot throughout the meeting. You should be prepared to ‘navigate’ the
session – this means you will be responsible for the programming moves in the editor.
We don’t expect you to come to our office for the session – we use Google Meet.
What you need to do before we start is to make sure your camera, microphone and
wifi work smoothly. Then, you can just enjoy the ride.
Code Review / TDD
The feedback culture is very important for us. One of the things we do to keep
it going is code review – the process of evaluating each other’s code.
It is great for improving our workflow,
It is an opportunity to learn from each other very quickly,
It helps gain a new perspective without the need for nit-picking or

pointing fingers at other people’s mistakes.
Along with the code review goes TDD – Test Driven Development. It’s
important to think of it as a programming technique instead of treating it as a
testing tool. By using TDD we:
can minimize the risk of doing something wrong,
rethink the features we want to implement,
discover a bug before we’re forced to fix it.

Community
We strongly believe that knowledge-sharing is caring. We share our
insights and experience in various ways. Some of them are:
Our blog. It doesn’t matter whether you are an iOS developer, a

Ruby on Rails fan or if any other technology is your passion – you
will find interesting. If you are thinking of joining our team, you
might want to see why you’ll love working with us or have a look at
how to prepare for a pair programming session.
Github. Feel free to check out our code and get inspired! In the
repository you will find many examples of our best practices.
Various meetups - we organize meetings for different developer
communities. You can meet us at swift.map, chill.js, and other co-
hosted events.
Netguru College - we organize workshops for both beginners and
advanced learners, completely free of charge, to share knowledge
and our ways of working.
Codestories Newsletter - where we send out the hottest and most
interesting news from tech world every two weeks.
Remote work / flexible hours
The Agile methodology and tools such as Slack, Jira and Google Meet
help us organise our work in the way that made remote work and flexible
hours possible. A reliable internet connection is all you need to work
remotely. Whether you do it on the beach or in a cosy apartment is
entirely up to you.
You can work remotely if:

you live in another city,
you’re more focused at home,
you don’t feel like working from the office on this particular day.
You can also benefit from flexible hours. Most of the work, daily standups,
and meetings with the team and clients happen between 10 am and 4
pm. During that time it is better to be online. You can adjust the rest of
your schedule to your needs.
Our office
Great locations in Poland’s biggest cities: Poznan, Warsaw, Gdansk, Cracow,
Wroclaw, Bialystok, Katowice and Lodz. There are both open spaces where you can
work on projects with your team and quiet zones.
Want to take a break and chill? In our chill rooms you will find foosball, Playstation
and a cozy corner with couches, bean bag chairs, hammocks and pillows, where you
can have a rest, play video games and relax.
Food: you’ll get free sandwiches and co-financed lunches. Be on the lookout for
various snacks in the office kitchen, too!
