Appeal of the work
・Global Team
Quipper has bases in London, Tokyo, Manila,
Jakarta, and Mexico City. Our members across the world work together
asynchronously using GitHub and chats.
We also place importance on
connecting the team members via visits to the offices in each country
and seeing one another face-to-face as well as through a company-wide
meeting every other week.
・Development Environment for Productivity
The
engineering at Quipper is focused on productivity. We often use
external services such as Heroku and CircleCI for infrastructure which
reduces time and effort to operate, in order to streamline management.
We have a culture that does not tolerate inconvenience and develop tools every day that make our work more efficient.
・Agile Product Development Focused on Users
In
developing a product, we think it’s important to keep improving the
overall service by observing the user reactions and making small
modifications. People in marketing and sales, as well as designers and
producers also often discuss and review the services on GitHub.
Our
engineers and designers go around schools in the world, listen to the
voices of users, and seek for a UI that is globally-adapted and easy for
anyone to use, and a UX that works fast with any line in the world for a
more enjoyable learning overall.
