The SoftArtisans team is a close-knit group of people who like to both share new challenges and have fun. Every day, we collaborate at our desks, over lunch in the common kitchen, or over the foosball table - whether it is to come up with solutions to new programming challenges we've run into, to discuss ways to improve the company, or to make plans for a laser-bagel-cutter-toaster and continuous bread machine (working on the patents).
We are encouraged to pursue our individual interests with hackathons consisting of multiple days dedicated exclusively to work on personal projects or to pick up new skills. In one such hackathon our team members built a model car controlled remotely by an Android AI via Bluetooth, picked up a new language, created browser-based game with HTML5, modified git to improve the log interface, and tried out a new restaurant for lunch, all while finishing a release package. We also hold various after-work activities ranging from yoga to a night of soccer to jumping out of a plane to group charity activities and annual company retreats. Sound like a fun place work?

Jonathan Briggs, IT Manager
Jon is our head database honcho, which is a pretty important role in a server-side software company. Back when “cloud” only had one literal denotation, he became SoftArtisans’ first full-time IT employee. Jon holds a B.S. from Northeastern in Computer Science, and holds out hope that someday, somehow, the Huskies will win the Beanpot again.
