Software Engineering.

You know the difference. It’s a lot more than just programming; how does one design systems that are reusable, extensible, secure.

Quality.

When you hear this word, your heart skips a beat because you identify with others in pursuit of greatness. The chase never stops, the chase never ends; it is who you are: a driver for doing things right because they are the right things to do (even when nobody is looking). You improve constantly (through learning and practice), just how you help other colleagues and businesses improve.

Quality means caring; quality means respect for yourself and your profession.

In broad strokes, these types of people strive at Lateral, people who care. If you are reliable, smart, thoughtful, kind, supportive human being, you might just have found a home here.
