Engineering at Fonoa

• Engineers are given problems to solve, rather than features to build.
• We always try to understand the customer’s needs before thinking about implementation details.
• Engineers are owners of their past, present and future; architecture, tools, coding, testing, deployment, operations and scaling
• We work in lean, small teams. We co-own the product roadmap with product managers
• We chose collaboration, compassion and trust over individualism and politics
• We prefer innovation, constant iteration and trust over competition and perfect solutions.
• We support each other, are kind by nature, and give as much feedback to all improve as professionals.
• We break down complex problems and always seek to find simplest solutions.
• We take quality seriously and factor it into everything we do.
• We are comfortable with change, either in priorities, goals and deadlines. We see this more as an opportunity than a hurdle. We are comfortable with challenging the status quo and pushing for change.
• We seek those looking to make a serious impact, and are excited about working in a high growth startup.
• We ship, fast, continuously, and iteratively, learning on each step.
• We are data informed. And are ok with finding the data when it’s missing.

• For backend, we build in C#, . NET, Node and Go
• For frontend, we use ReactJS and Typescript
• For persistence we are mostly using MongoDB
• We use Azure and GCP for our cloud services
• We manage our infrastructure with Terraform, Kubernetes CRDs, ArgoCD and DataDog.

“As an engineer, I am following a product through its lifecycle, from ideation to delivery and support which gives a lot of exposure to the technology, and customer needs. This allows me to learn to improve both myself and the product constantly.” –Philip Beel, Engineering Manager
