Who does the work, and how

The people who write the code, the technologies they use, and how the work runs from first contact to delivery.

Why Zorgen exists

Zorgen builds software for companies whose operation has outgrown spreadsheets, manual handoffs and tools that do not talk to each other. We are a small senior team: the people who scope the work are the people who write the code and answer when it breaks.

Working together

Time zone

Brazil and Uruguay, both UTC−3. Full overlap with the US Eastern morning and afternoon.

Communication

Slack, or whichever channel your team already uses, with a written update every two days and a weekly call.

Language

English, Portuguese and Spanish.

Ways to work with us

Two arrangements, depending on what your company already has. Starting with one and moving to the other is possible, and we sort that out in conversation.

Inside your team

For teams that have the people and need more hands. We join the channel your team already uses, Slack or Teams, and your repository, whether that is GitHub, GitLab or Gitea. The process stays yours and we fit into it.

Work is measured per task, with the size agreed before the task starts. You know what each item costs before you approve it.

By project

For companies that have the problem and no team to build it. The team is ours and the scope is agreed with you. The first delivery is live in two weeks, and a new one every two weeks after that.

How the work runs

  • Discovery: we learn how the operation actually runs before proposing architecture, because the written requirement is rarely the problem.
  • Two-week cycles, with something running at the end of each one, instead of a single delivery at the finish line.
  • Every change goes through code review and automated tests before it ships.
  • We hand over with automated deploys and written instructions for operating what was built.

After delivery

Code ownership

The code is yours from the first commit. The repository lives in your organisation; we work in it by invitation.

Support

Thirty days of fixes at no cost after delivery, and a maintenance agreement when it makes sense.

Built to fit, not to fill a template

We dig into the problem until we understand it better than the brief did. That is what lets us shape the solution around how a particular company actually works, instead of around what was easy to specify.

What we stand for

Every engagement is judged by one thing: whether the client's operation actually got better.

  • Icon representing Straight talk

    Straight talk

    We say what needs saying, including when a request is the wrong solution to the real problem.

  • Icon representing Partnership

    Partnership

    We measure our work by our clients' results, not by hours billed. That is why engagements here tend to last years, not sprints.

  • Icon representing Support

    Support

    We monitor what we ship and answer for it in production, not only until handover.

  • Icon representing Team

    Team

    Senior engineers who stay on your project. No handing the work down to whoever is free.

  • Icon representing Modularity

    Modularity

    Systems built so the next feature is an addition, not a rewrite.

  • Icon representing Security and privacy

    Security and privacy

    Data handled with care and in line with Brazil's LGPD, the local equivalent of the GDPR.

  • Icon representing Integration

    Integration

    We connect to the systems you already run (ERPs, messaging platforms, payment providers) instead of asking you to replace them.
