Who we are?
SwingDev is a Polish-American IT company. Our heartbeats in an atmospheric office in a renovated tenement house in Nowy ?wiat, although many of us also work remotely from various parts of Poland (and the world). Currently, we are a team of around 50 people and we are growing at a steady pace.
When you join us, you will see for yourself how a friendly work environment is built by great people and mutual respect — but to raise the stakes, a lot is also happening here!
That is why we want to enrich the band with someone who will show the spirit and character of SwingDev. We do our best to make everyone feel good with us and be satisfied with the place where they work. We have to admit that we are doing very well ;)
However, we need a person who will be able to show our world to other people.
