About Us
We’re a young, growing company with an expanding team! We are passionate about our mission to help innovators get their MVPs launched and into the market more easily than ever before.

Individually, we are focussed on personal development and always setting sights on the next skill, certification or professional development goal that team members can achieve. We’re all about forward momentum.

* Helping with the testing of in-development MVPs
* Building out overarching design principles and guidelines for Verticode MVPs for use as the team expands
The attributes you’ll need:
* Creativity to design products from a wide range of industries
