Background

Over the past 18 years, Codeo has established itself as an integral technical partner for a number of high profile customers.

We've collaborated with customers on a number of amazing projects and have also been lucky enough to bootstrap successful product businesses along the way. We continue to actively support these products from an engineering and product design perspective.

In the last few years, we launched SendBoard - a Trello PowerUp that brings first class email support to Trello (see what Trello had to say about SendBoard on their blog).

Our customers value Codeo because we operate a highly competent and lean team. There is very little red tape. We don’t have layers of account managers and project managers between the customer and the people who actually add value (the folks that do the work). We’re lean in the context of size (we are a small team) but we also align our operations to the principles of lean manufacturing.

We want to be invested in the products we help build. We want to leverage what we love and what we are brilliant at to make a positive impact on the way people live and work.

The Role

Codeo’s Culture

At Codeo, we love learning and solving challenging problems in new ways. We love that technology lets small teams solve big problems. We’re an intentionally small and focused team. Maintaining a startup culture and mindset is important to us.

Our values are excellence, empathy, innovation, ownership, strategy and teamwork.

These are practised through 30 key principles which we refer to as the Codeo Way. At any point in time we are focusing on improving ourselves in one of these areas. Examples of key behaviours are “Listen Generously”, "Master your Tools" or "Check your ego at the door".

Our core value is excellence. We want to ensure that everything we do is aligned to being excellent. From crafting an email, to writing documentation, code, testing or design, we want to ensure that we do an excellent job. Some of our behaviours aligned to this are "Make quality personal" and "Be hungry to be better".

See https://www.codeo.co.za/culture for more information on our values and what’s important to us! We’re very intentional about our team culture.
