What we offer

Integrated Teams

With our partner in Rwanda, we offer handpicked integrated teams that have a 100% time overlap and participate in daily scrum ceremonies. We guarantee the highest standards. Every developer went through a multi-stage due diligence process by our technical leads. Before we start working together, we apply test tasks and review every team member’s code quality. Talk to us to find out how we pick our developers and how they can help you.
“Codeshift has done a great job supporting Homeday both from an engineering and product perspective in helping to build and evolve our products.”
