How Team Agent Products is working during the Corona pandemic
The team will work remotely at least until the end of this year. It is possible to work from the office but the team mainly works from home with daily meetings to plan the work for the day. Pair- or mob-programming is used frequently to collaborate and share knowledge. We have daily check-ins set up online and once a week a team fika. Tools we use to collaborate remotely are Tuple, Trello, Miro and Meet.
We look forward to reading your application!
