we are

We are on the lookout for a talented Project Manager to join our team! At we are, we get excited about engineering custom software solutions for companies with bold ideas or operational challenges. But more than that, we’re committed to making the journey of software creation exciting, rewarding, and stress-free. For our clients and our team alike. As a project manager, you’ll play a crucial role in creating success stories and long-term partnerships. 🤝 For us, that person isn’t just a go-between for clients and developers. It’s someone who actively thinks along with both sides, fostering ownership and input from the developers. You don’t tell them what to do, they’re smart enough to figure that out themselves. Instead, you support and empower them, making sure they achieve the best possible solution for our clients. 🔍 Want to make an impact in a growing start-up?

Dunkirk, December 2024. A time to hold still at the past year, to reflect on growth, to set new goals, to work from a place other than our desk and enjoy some fresh sea air. We also took time to explore how we can work even better together as a team. It was great to have Iraïs and Frederic with us, sharing their experience and offering new insights.

Cleaning kitchens has never been so sexy 🥵 How Upkot went from: - Manually planning of which students are responsible for cleaning shared kitchens. - Coaches struggling to hold students accountable and follow up. - Inefficient communication through Facebook and WhatsApp groups. To: - An automated cleaning planner with clear tasks, integrated into the Upkot app for students. - Coaches have more time for personal contact and no longer need to micromanage. - Easy communication and efficiency through the swap function, kitchen chat and notification centre.

In de rubriek Jong Geweld laten we beloftevolle ondernemers aan het woord. Vandaag: Manu De Buck (25) van we are, een Gentse softwarebouwer voor kmo's die snel groeit zonder extern kapitaal. 🚀 💬 'Ik krijg echt een kick als ik zie dat we met ons team superzotte mensen all the way gaan voor onmogelijke uitdagingen.'

Just that one time Manu was being interviewed for 'De Tijd', he was still recovering from the flu. So, go easy on him for not looking his sharpest. 😉 💬 "We asked ourselves: 'Do we really want to start working for a company right away, or do we first want to see if we can follow that personal drive?' We chose the second one, and over the past two years, we’ve achieved 70% growth year after year without external capital. However, we avoid putting a growth figure or employee number on where we aim to be in 5 years. Instead, we focus on getting better at what our company stands for - commitment, no-nonsense, and quality." Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/eHfv_igf

Wishing you an amazing 2025 ✨ - Here's what we're up to. From testing software on Tomorrowland and Dour, to celebrating our 2nd birthday and moving to a new office. 2024 was epic 💚 In 2025 we want to: - Focus on our team: helping each other grow, building on our strengths, and supporting personal development. - Daring to express our opinions and views more often on innovation and technology. - Prove that you don't need demos. They're fake (already working on that second one). You have to test yourself and see if you can break things. - Set up our own 'tech tracker' to keep up with tech innovations and experiment with new technologies. - In 2024 we tested software at different festivals, will 2025 be the year that applications we'll build run on locations across every continent? 🌏 Have an amazing 2025🎄

Ah, the end of the year again. The time when half of LinkedIn is on holiday, so the number of newsletter readers drops dramatically. However, we didn’t drop the effort of writing a good one. If the family party bores you or you need a break between the first and second dessert, you can always hide in the toilet and read this tech newsletter. As always, we briefly summarise some of the latest tech news. We discuss AI in 2024 and share our thoughts about 'The State of JavaScript 2024' report. If you're not a developer, that last one might bore you a bit, so you might want to skip that part. But be sure to read the newsletter until the end to learn about our newest section: a monthly movie or series recommendation from someone on the team.
