“ At Salsita we all get a budget to choose our own hardware. ”
If you’re a software developer who enjoys coding back-end software in a windowless office in the basement of a disused warehouse in the outskirts of town for a banking application you will never see in use, working at Salsita is not for you.
We develop cutting-edge browser add-ons and server-side Python applications for our international clients in the United States and across Europe. As Salsitista*, you can see the fruits of your labor deployed by clients and used by real live people.
* Person who works at Salsita.
Our developers are adults, and we treat them as such.
You get four weeks vacation and you can take it whenever you want. If you decide to take your kids to the zoo tomorrow afternoon, just go. If you want to work at home from time to time, just do it. In exchange, we expect you to be a hard-working professional who understands the needs of our clients and produces exceptional results.
We use best-of-breed software development tools.
Like Pivotal Tracker and Review Board. When we need a tool that doesn’t already exist, we write it ourselves (usually in Python). We use whatever languages and operating systems are best suited to a given project, whether it’s JavaScript, C++ or Python on OS X, Windows or Linux. Our developers must be excited to learn new skills and put them to practical use immediately. We know that developers are only as good as their tools. We also know that developers can be -- how shall we put it? -- particular about the hardware they use. So we give each Salsitista a budget and let them choose their dream computer, be it a top-of-the-line 27” iMac or a custom-built Windows box with a screaming quad-core i7, SSD, dual monitors and just the right processor fan.
We never ship a line of code without a code review, and we are constantly improving our development procedures and testing tools and methodology.
