hello

Work on truly ambitious projects and assure your professional growth with Sparkbit

What we do

Sparkbit started with a vision to fix complex problems with the clever use of the software. We wanted to gather top software engineering talent and give them space to be creative.

Fostering a great atmosphere and promoting ownership and teamwork, we deliver solutions only a handful of companies can do.

We work on ambitious projects that require knowledge, creativity, and curiosity.

To be a good fit for our team, you should have technical expertise, a solid academic background, and a willingness to learn and discover.

Every project we do has a layer of ambiguity, a place for research and coming up with clever solutions. You should also be good at communication, as we spend much of our day talking to each other.

Testimonial

We're building a military-grade communication system used during maritime minehunting missions. The system uses various complex records containing the location and specific technical information of processed military objects. The challenge here is to reflect them in the DB/code. At the same time, we must stick to proprietary data formats to exchange data between different systems the client uses.

Kacper GąsiorSoftware Developer at Sparkbit

We have an interesting case - the app we're building from scratch has a map panel that users can add elements to, manage them and modify. The catch is that it's a mission-critical system that can be used on many devices simultaneously, so all instances must be synchronized at all times.

Bartek RóżańskiSoftware Developer at Sparkbit

We were building a prototype app, and one of the requirements was for it to handle 100 000 users in the first weekend. We based the backend on Spring and MySQL, and had to optimize MySQL to reach the capacity. We conducted extensive load tests and finally got the desired performance. Then we started migrating to a more suitable DB - Cassandra.

Wojtek ŁowiecTech Lead

We respect each other time, skills, and well-being.

Being open, trustful and kind pays off, and we know that. There's no overcontrolling or micromanagement. We keep processes as simple as possible to keep the business rolling.

Time and place of work are also flexible - as long as you are there when the team needs you and deliver good quality. If a private life interferes with work from time to time, there is no need to stress - we are all humans.

Testimonial

When I manage a project for a client, I’m free to do it as I see fit, as long as he is satisfied. On the other hand, if I have a problem I cannot solve myself, I can always count on the company’s support. In Sparkbit, I’m asked to do my job and not told how to do it.

Michał RatyńskiSenior PM

I've had some serious family problems, and I knew I'd have to work odd hours, possibly make longer breaks and do some weekends to catch up. I told Michał about everything - I was understood and got the support I needed.

Łukasz PejasSenior Software Developer at Sparkbit

The organization is small, so there's no need for a whole committee to make a decision. I can focus on my job instead of corporate drama. Let's call it a place to get things done - I work remotely but got all the trust I need, and there's no progress check every half an hour. I feel satisfied with what I do.

Robert WysockiSenior Software Developer at Sparkbit

We constantly improve our technical skills, communication and teamwork.

We grow but try to stay flat and put as much power in the team's hands. We support all kinds of bottom-up initiatives where everyone is more than welcome to join and contribute. There are ML seminars held at an academic level, along with frontend, QA, and project management sessions.

Less experienced developers join the Sparkbit Fellowship - our proprietary initiative that supports the seamless transition to a regular developer by following a defined path under the mentor's guidance.

Testimonial

Sparkbit Fellowship taught me the workflows and helped me ease into the company. I learned skills and good habits that are never taught at university and are usually underemphasized in online courses and bootcamps. You learn all this by building, which to me is one of the greatest joys of programming :)

Paweł BiłkoSoftware Developer at Sparkbit

For the ML Seminar, every participant had to prepare a presentation covering a technique or an approach based on scientific papers, not articles or popular science stories. I found it valuable, as it allows you to read and synthesize knowledge from non-biased sources close to the actual author, and therefore associate with absolute novelties.
