We partnered with them a few years back before we acquired one of their competitors, Voter Voice. They seemed like a good group with some good talent, but not sure if things have changed since then. Advocacy as a product line is selling well, stakeholder management is also important You should also check us out if you are interested in the DC market. Feel free to dm if so

Hi! Happy to answer any questions you have. We're a dedicated team of engineers and generally have a great time building great products for our partners. The first and most prevalent aspect of company culture is customer focus. If you're looking to have a clear feedback loop of how the tech you're building is helping (or not helping) your users this is the place to be. Everything you build here is human centric and the impact of your products can be seen every day. We're big on analytics so we're constantly tracking customer health from the server level all the way to human NPS scores which guide decisions in the engineering team. On the tech side, we believe in hiring bright motivated people, and to give each of our engineers autonomy in choosing the best approach to solve complex problems for our partners. Our stack includes Vue for our front-end, micro service architecture for our backend systems in PHP and Node, serverless architecture services, data warehousing with Redshift, data analytics pipelines with Kinesis, and machine learning with Sagemaker, just to name a few. When facing a problem, we often sit together and align on a solution, considering best architected framework concepts, and are given full power to build it, no red tape involved. Trusting the amazing team we have allows us to move quickly and gives everyone a sense of ownership. I will say most of our challenges currently revolve around scaling solutions, which is an effect of our big spike of company and user growth, so they're interesting/good problems to solve. Company is big on professional development as well so we often have teams going to re:Invent, F8, Vue Conf, etc, and are given stipends to take classes or certs. DM me with any more questions you have! If you're interested in learning more we'd love you to come check out the office too, we're in Rosslyn.
