The original founders met while working on the same team in a large international corporation.
Started in 2007 by a few friends who got together and decided that they wanted to be part of something where the customer was at the heart of what they did. They wanted a place where creativity was respected, a place where you had the chance to showcase your skills and learn new ones. A place where technology changed the way businesses worked, and that is how Spartez was born.
We are responsible for the product strategy, design and engineering of:
Always be honest with customers, they fund you and are your greatest treasure. Care for them, respond promptly and keep them in the loop. They are people just like you.
Don't complain. If you don't like something - change it. Implement the change by yourself, drive it or just flag it, propose a better solution and help us improve. Don't ask for permission. Use your common sense and act. Respect and help challengers, be constructive and selfless when opposing a change.
Assume that everything you do and say is public. Our pay bands, current sales figures, strategies, challenges, everything is available to everyone within the company. All your decisions related to products are public by default, unless they contain customer sensitive data. Whenever you present your point of view - use concrete facts, reports and statistics. All of us at Spartez don’t like to use words like “some”, “most of”, “many”, etc
Be a part of and create an awesome working environment that people truly enjoy working in. Learn from your smart and motivated colleagues and take care of them like you would of family. Focus on delivering customer delight by avoiding or cutting through corporate bullshit, politics and where possible, meetings.
As few rules as possible. Simple is better, though harder to achieve. When faced with a choice, avoid complexity at all costs. When in doubt, KISS!
Our core values define our identity. These five principles are at the very foundation of who we are and what we do. Follow us on our social media and see how we live by qualities each day.
