About our Engineering Team:

✅ We like toexperiment (since we’re innovating sometimes, it makes sense) with new technologies and stacks, but for now, we’ve settled with:

• TypeScript –Next.js (end-to-end)
• Prisma ORM - Planetscale
  
  

✅ We like to use:

• React –Tailwind CSS (latest versions) for our frontend needs
• We leverageNext.js (also latest versions) for its amazing routing system, caching, SSR support, and better DX overall
  
  

✅ We keep our backend functions as lean as possible (again, same argument applies: we’re innovating in the ways we store our assessments, our tests, and so on) because we like to move fast. This is why we have our backend deployed using:

• Serverless functions onVercel (also using Next.js)
  
  

✅ We believe thatinnovation,continuous iterations, andresilience are what move the needle forward.

We encourageopen communication, asfull transparency is what makes us better.
We valueinclusion anddiversity and promote anall-hands-on-deck culture in everything we do.
