The team includes a diverse group of computer scientists, data scientists, biologists, physicists and engineers including alumni from Stanford University and the U. of California.

We are at the forefront of technology. That’s why we use the latest tools as part of our technology stack. We code mostly in Python and Javascript (Tensorflow/PyTorch, Node.js, React, etc), and use a diverse set of tools such as Codefresh (CI/CD) and GraphQL, just to mention a few. We deliver quality code for a fast-paced growing industry, developing processes that enable us to release robust and secure code quickly. We are constantly improving our software delivery pipeline implementing high standards on our continuous integration and delivery process.
