Who we are

CareZone is a little, well-funded software shop that weaves together empathy and technology to solve very human problems. Based primarily out of Capitol Hill in Seattle and the Mission in San Francisco, our team has been a part of some pretty exciting technological innovations — we’re looking to bring that experience and inspiration to our users. We love well-crafted code, thoughtful words, dogs, coffee, and, most of all, people.

As individuals, we lead by example and don’t need a whole lot of direction. When we need help, we ask for it without so much as a blush.

If something is outside our area of expertise, we dive in anyway and learn as much as we can. Our developers sometimes write copy, our marketers sometimes design, our community manager sometimes illustrates. Of course, we know when to let go of the reins when a task is beyond our capacity.

We’re relentless. If we take on tasks, we see them through with an almost compulsive sense of responsibility. And while we pay a good deal of attention to detail, we know it’s okay if some things aren’t perfect. We also know that some things need to be.

Who are CareZone Developers?

CareZone developers make consumer software services that scale with success. We like code and we want people to use it.

We’re generalists who handle all sorts of technical tasks with efficiency, precision, and correctness. We’ve been building software for years; we understand it. We know how it works. We know how to keep it running and how to make it scale.

Open source is an essential element of our DNA. Our current stack is Linux / Ruby / Rails / CoffeeScript / jQuery / Backbone / PostgreSQL / iOS / Android. We may not know everything about each of these, but we’re constantly listening, learning, teaching, contributing.

Design may not be our forte, but we have some design sense and the ability to communicate and work with great designers.

We’re well acquainted with both technical jargon and the rules of the English language. In other words, we talk good and we write good.

While we love to pair program and work with others, we’re very self-directed and motivated.

Our motivations are simple — we genuinely want to bring smiles to our users.
