Working at Atomic Object

Values

Care Deeply

We are successful at Atomic because everyone cares. We care about our customers, our company, our colleagues, and our professions. (And yes, we have another, earthier phrase for this internally.)

Share the Pain

We share the pain on projects with less than ideal circumstances. We carefully plan assignments to help people grow as professionals.

Teach and Learn

A diverse client base means diversity in technology and problem domain. Atoms are encouraged and funded to attend conferences. Atoms regularly publish papers and articles and speak on the art of software development.

Own It

Atomic encourages employees to own their craft, their work, their responsibilities within the organization, and to our clients.

Culture

Commitment

We’re committed to each other. Atomic has never laid anyone off for lack of work. Our people stick around and thrive.

Trust & Responsibility

Discussions on policy are many; policies are few.

Consultant Mindset

We expect all employees to think like a consultant and act like an owner, and our employees in turn receive many benefits of ownership (quarterly profit sharing for everyone, actual ownership to long-term employees).

Transparency

Everyone knows the condition of the company and feels connected to its ongoing success. Politics is almost non-existent; openness is the norm.

Balance

We vigorously discourage working at a non-sustainable pace (i.e. regularly scheduled overtime). We work smart so we don’t have to work unsustainably.

Work

One of the most exciting aspects of Atomic is the variety of work we do. Our experience spans technologies, industries, client size. At Atomic we consider ourselves experts at becoming experts. This means we need to be able to quickly come up to speed on new technologies and domains in order to best serve the diverse and complex needs of our customers. In a nutshell, working at Atomic is not boring, and it will require you to be a fast learner.

Atomic Object is an equal opportunity employer. Bottom line: We welcome applications from anybody who shares our vision for building software that delights the people who use it and makes the companies who fund it more profitable. Please see our diversity statement for details.

We have a post in our company blog that describes in more detail our values, culture, and work.
