§ 02 / Two time zones, one thread
One to two hours ahead of Paris.
Madagascar is on UTC+3. Paris is on UTC+1 in winter and UTC+2 in summer. We are one to two hours ahead: a large part of the working day is shared.
We start the day before you. Your project’s progress stays visible in your project space. Our principals work on site with the team: your point of contact steers the project close to the developers.
§ 03 / The team
Who does what.
Developers and principals in Madagascar, working together. No illustrative photos and no made-up org chart: here is simply who does what.
-
Madagascar
The development team
Analysis, code, tests, pre-production and production releases, with a human review before every release; one to two hours ahead of Paris.
-
With the team
The principals
Scoping, contract, on-site project steering with the team, and relationship management: a single, French-speaking point of contact.

Your side
Your code and your access
The code lives in your Git repository from day one; full handover within 30 days is one of our commitments.

Elodie, Jobset -
Notre expérience avec Florent fût brillante. Il a su trouver des réponses à nos problématiques en respectant les délais, livrant même les éléments en avance, assez rare pour être noté. A l'écoute et disponible, il saura vous accompagner tout au long de votre projet, vous pouvez foncer les yeux fermés !
