WHO WE ARE

Frogslayer is the AI & Automation integrator for the middle market. We're a custom software and AI partner that rescues stalled projects, modernizes legacy systems, and designs, builds, and scales the software and AI solutions our clients' businesses depend on. Through ourAI Office model, we embed senior strategists and engineers directly inside our clients' businesses — every month — to help them figure out what to build, what to buy, what to ignore, and then actually ship it. We work inside their environment, not around it.

Roughly 80% of AI projects never reach production. We exist to put our clients on the right side of that number. Our projects succeed at roughly 3X the industry average, and that comes from putting senior people in front of clients, not from cutting corners.

Frogslayer aims to be a top-tier "talent destination" for exceptional individuals who want to grow their careers long-term. Our people are committed, hard-working, and genuinely care about the well-being of each other and Frogslayer. We have been continually recognized for the past 7 years by Inc. and Texas Monthly as one of the "best places to work" in Texas and the US.

Frogslayer is an equal-opportunity employer. We welcome and encourage diversity in the workplace. We offer a generous benefits package, including company contributions to medical benefits for full-time employees and their families. In addition, we offer a flexible work environment, company-sponsored activities, and a commitment to providing each employee with job satisfaction and growth opportunities based on each person's needs and goals.
