Our development team works in a self-organised way according to the Scrum method, which the team has continued to adapt and refine for their needs in recent years. We currently work in 3 weekly sprints and have our daily scrum every day at 10:00 (via Slack because the team works remotely). Each sprint ends with a retrospective and our demo meeting. At the demo meetings, not only the development team presents, but also the other departments show what they have achieved in the last 3 weeks. As part of our team, you will not only be able to present your new features at these meetings, but also find out what these features actually mean for our customers' campaigns! Before the new sprint starts, the team decides together with the product owner which issues will make it into the next sprint. The selection of the right song is very important here - purely subjectively, "the worse, the better" now applies. The centrepiece of our software is currently being redesigned. Design sprints are being held for this purpose and progress is being tested both internally and together with our customers. Documentation is very important to us, which is why we not only attach great importance to documentation in the code itself, but also have a person who is solely responsible for documentation and testing. Code reviews are also an integral part of our development process. Every code is reviewed by other developers before it can be included in the weekly release. These reviews are not only extremely helpful for new developers, but also help our experienced seniors to stay on the ball.

Colleagues
- Why did you choose this team?
- I wanted to work on a product that creates real social impact. At Formunauts, I have the opportunity to build digital solutions that help nonprofit organizations increase their fundraising and make a bigger difference. I also enjoy being part of a collaborative team where ideas quickly turn into reality and everyone has the opportunity to shape the product.
- What´s your job about?
- As a Product Owner, my role is to ensure we're building the right solutions for our customers. I work closely with developers, UX/UI designers, and internal stakeholder and customers to understand their needs, prioritize initiatives, and translate ideas into clear product requirements. From discovery and planning to release and continuous improvement, I'm involved throughout the entire product lifecycle, always focusing on delivering value to our users.
- What do you like most about your job?
- What I enjoy most is combining strategic thinking with hands-on collaboration. Every day brings new challenges, whether it's solving customer problems, refining product ideas, or working with the team to deliver new features. It's rewarding to see how our work helps nonprofit organizations succeed, and I appreciate the autonomy, fast decision-making, and the opportunity to continuously improve both the product and the way we work.
