About Ellos Group IT

At Ellos Group IT, we have clear goal of becoming the best IT team anywhere. And for that we are looking for the best people. We believe in building a diverse team, a passionate team,

a team that delivers on what we commit to....and more. A team that has fun together, who challenges each other. A team that creates a positive buzz.

 

Here's the technical stuff

Three and a half year ago we completed a full platform swap, moving in Infor M3 as an ERP system, mule as an integration platform, inRiver as PIM and Intershop as ecommerce platform. 

We love agile and are on a journey towards agility. We work with SCRUM and SAFe, but we are not religious about it (hey, being agile means trying things out, right?)

We run our own operations and have a strong development team. Almost everyone is located in Borås, but we also have a team in Kiev.
