COMMUNITY IS AT THE HEART

In today's world it would be easy to sit behind an email or chat on social media. We still love the old school way of meeting people face to face and building real relationships, people you can call on as friends. Community is our real USP and it's laced deep in our bones. We are committed to helping the tech community to grow by sharing knowledge, blogs, organising meet ups, sponsoring conferences and offering some of the coolest jobs on the market. We run our own monthly tech meet up called Scala in the City, last year we sponsored nine global conferences, this year we have already agreed to sponsor many more, our blog on our site has now become the go to place for anyone wanting to learn functional programming.

WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS

WE ARE SPECIALISTS!

At Signify we only focus on one technology, Scala, that's what makes us true specialists! We have become a pivotal part of the Scala community and are trusted by many because of our unique approach. We're real experts in our market by only working on one technology, attending/running meet ups, sharing blogs & videos and sponsoring/attending global conferences. This sounds crazy but the whole company working the same market gives you so much knowledge and a competitive edge over your competitors. Don't worry we don't compete against each other in fact we share! This comes from great team work, our culture, ego free team members plus more roles and clients then we can handle right now. Many of our recruiters are rewarded by having the opportunity to travel internationally to conferences in awesome locations such as San Francisco and Berlin, last year 13 of our team attended global conferences.
