Culture and benefits at Methodical Software

At Methodical we practice computer science. We value advanced methods, novel applications, original thinking, and the ability to communicate ideas. The most exciting part of our employee portal looks like the Microsoft Research Blog or Google Scholar. Peer review, editorial help, and collaborations internally add value to everyone’s work. Inside Methodical it’s a publish or perish world. Methodical people are organized by skills and areas of interest and focus, not by customer or project or geography. Methodical cultivates talent at the Ph.D. level. People who can engage in original thinking using skills in math, and knowledge of physics, to, if not invent, at least to understand deeply complex algorithms in the fields of computer security, algorithm optimization, data analytics, distributed systems, and other areas of practice which form the basis of competitive advantage in business applications of computation. Methodical practices the Art of Engineering. We focus on cloud deployed software backed by a continuous delivery development and deployment methodology. This requires cultivation of engineering skills generally. Code quality, algorithm correctness, testing processes; these are all engineering intensive domains. Recognition of quality and simplicity and efficiency require artistic as well as engineering skill. These dual skills, Art and Engineering, merge completely in business process analysis, information architecture, and the design and implementation of user interfaces. Methodical Project Managers focus on business strategy, domain driven design and information architecture to improve communications between our customers and our teams.
