About thinkbridge
thinkbridge is how growth-stage companies can finally turn into tech disruptors. They get a new way there with world-class technology strategy, development, maintenance, and data science all in one place. But solving technology problems like these involves a lot more than code. That's why we encourage thinkers to spend 80% of their time thinking through solutions and 20% coding them. With an average client tenure of 4+ years, you won't be hopping from project to project here unless you want to. So, you really can get to know your clients and understand their challenges on a deeper level. At thinkbridge, you can expand your knowledge during work hours specifically reserved for learning. Or even transition to a completely different role in the organization. It's all about challenging yourself while you challenge small thinking.
thinkbridge is a place where you can:
- Think bigger because you have the time, opportunity, and support it takes to dig deeper and tackle larger issues.
- Move faster because you'll be working with experienced, helpful teams who can guide you through challenges, quickly resolve issues, and show you new ways to get things done.
- Go further because you have the opportunity to grow professionally, add new skills, and take on new responsibilities in an organization that takes a long-term view of every relationship.
