Our Firm

Linkedware was established in 2006, 

Each team is assigned a Project Lead, a full-time developer on the team who has additional responsibilities for facilitating communication and planning with the client and amongst the team.

Projects fail for one major reason – poor communication. Establishing communication and planning rhythms is the most important aspect of software project management.

At Linkedware we use the best in class technologies for communication in cooperation with clickup, slack and kayako.

Our culture is best described as open, friendly, and fast-paced.

  • People are direct in their communication, have full autonomy over their time, and management maintains full financial transparency at all times.
  • Everyone is involved in company activities (like our quarterly wellness adventures or Food Truck Fridays) and many people hang out socially.
  • We’ve consistently been recognized as one of the best companies

The typical size for each project team is 2-3 developers. Each project team is supported by UI/UX designers, software testers, managers, and cloud engineers. With each development team sharing support resources, we’re able to reduce project costs for clients. We’re also able to make developers more efficient by ensuring they spend their time writing production-level code, not messing with other tasks.

Our Staff

Linkedware was established in 2006, 

Each team is assigned a Project Lead, a full-time developer on the team who has additional responsibilities for facilitating communication and planning with the client and amongst the team.

Linkedware receives over 200 new applicants a month.

Our vetting process includes 5 steps:

  1. Best-Fit Phone Interview
  2. Technical Phone Interview
  3. Coding Exercise – this weeds out about 80% of all applicants
  4. Reference Check
  5. In-Person Interview

We’ve interviewed more than 1,300 candidates in order to find the group of people we work with today.

When hiring developers, we focus on finding people who (1) would program even if it wasn’t their job, (2) can learn and apply new, or foreign, concepts quickly under pressure and (3) have a strong grasp of computer science fundamentals.

Costs & Schedule

A typical small team for the projects we work on is two to three full-time developers. A large team is four to six people.

For a rough approximation of project duration, we take the estimates above and divide by 32 hours for each person on the team. For example, a 1200-hour project takes approximately 3 months of calendar time for a team of 3 people (1200 hours / (3 people * 32 hours/person/week) / 4 weeks/month = ~ 3 months).

On large projects, we’re able to add people and go faster. That’s quite an amazing thing, actually, and not something every team or company can do. Growing the team requires we have additional employees available

We encourage our clients to embrace bugs, embrace risks, and know that we will do everything we can to address both. Your team will track bugs and work them into the schedule each week with other backlog item.

Our teams are smart and experienced; they do their best at predictably building your product. With each iteration, we’ll take what we’ve learned and quickly your team integrate new insights to keep quality high.

Our Experience, Speed of delivery, Track record and Talent. 

Also the technologies we use are much more expensive than the open source and free ones.

We guarantee cost. In an industry that’s infamous for cost overruns and low-ball bids, we go to great lengths in our upfront process to de-risk projects. This efforts produces spot-on solutions, accurate estimates, and successful relationships. If we underestimate something then we’ll eat 100% of the additional cost until we’re back on track. Why? Because it’s the right thing to do.
