Can Atomic Object seriously claim to value diversity?
As enrollment in computer science programs in developed countries has declined, enrollment by women and minorities has declined even faster. As a consequence, diversifying on gender or race is particularly difficult in software development.
Diversity at Atomic Object
Diversity has many dimensions. Age, gender, race, nationality, education, work experience, thought-process, and family background are a few we think of when we evaluate diversity.
From dairy farmers to doctors teachers, pastors and factory workers, our family backgrounds are quite diverse. This lends us a strength of perspective when we work in the diverse domains of our clients, and as we develop and refine our own internal policies.
Our educational backgrounds range from some college through masters and doctoral degrees, in a variety of subjects. Computer Science holds the majority, but we count degrees in Industrial Interior Design and Art History as well.
Our collective work experience includes universities, factories, start-ups, fast food, multinational, and governmental agencies.
Conclusion
We find advantage in diversity every day we work together. Diversity is something we actively consider and seek when we’re looking for passionate software craftspeople to join us.
We welcome applications from anybody who shares our passion for software excellence regardless of any other aspect of their being.
