WHO WE ARE 

Bitovi helps companies create better software and applications. We’re driven by the desire to provide value - to our clients, the technology community, and our incredible team. 

Every day, we design and build a wide variety of high-profile applications. We discuss and design architectures, review code, and research new front-end technologies. We talk to our clients directly, guiding them through the process, identifying potential problems and unknowns, and tackling challenges.  

We help one another freely. We keep a Slack channel called ask-help, which is constantly used. We develop new skills, build better developer tools, and work on new types of projects regularly—and we take the time to present at conferences, give training, and run meetups. We’re huge open source devotees, and our developer community is second to none. 

Our fully remote team consists of about 70 members located in the US, Canada, and other International locations. We welcome diversity and non-traditional paths into the developer profession—we want the right person, not the right collection of tech keywords.
