Insider stories
“Optasia is about humanity and a respectful working environment. It is a place where even the smaller contribution is appreciated. People here are very kind and approachable and for me, they tend to spread only positive energy. I feel that this calm and supportive environment promotes my professional grow.
Getting into the philosophy of Optasia’s software components is quite challenging, but the good thing is that it inevitably opens other ways of thinking. And once you get there, the space for practicing Object-Oriented-Design, Test-Driven-Development, and clean code principles broadens, which I find very exciting.”
