how we do things
Just like magic requires magicians, development requires developers. In the jungle of code, this is the group of people with machetes hacking through, trying to reach El Dorado, the legend, the perfect code. You won’t find a group of people as dedicated as these for several meters from our office.
Here are some main principles we keep in mind while creating the magic:
-
for us impossible is possible
We don't thread to take on projects which, at first, might seem too complex to handle. There is no such thing for us! Actually, when someone says it's impossible, we get inspired and prove otherwise! -
we inspire each other
The background of our team members is various. Our knowledge base and experience is so different that we honestly complete each other. And inspire. Every day! -
work hard play hard
The hard work needs balance and a proper dose of humour. We get them both. We joke and hang around, go to gym together and have fun events. This keeps us going! -
we do what we love
We wouldn't do the projects we do unless we'd like them. So for us, it is important to work only on those things that we truly believe in and make us jump for joy. When there’s passion, there’s work done with the heart and this is the secret to our success! -
we like to be curious
We like asking questions. We want to get at the bottom of the project, understand the business needs and be on the same page with all the parties. Only then we can be sure we move in the right direction. -
key to success is quality and efficiency
We believe quality is everyone's responsibility and efficiency is an important element of work. We value cooperation, effective and thorough work. This way, we can deliver faster and better.

THE BALANCE OF WORK AND PLAY
Having fun is just as important as working hard. You simply cannot expect people to be consistently productive without letting loose every now and again. We pride ourselves on the ability to play and have fun when we need to unwind.
THE OFFICE
To have a balanced work-life you need a good office. Our fully customized office building in Tartu is optimized to separate open workspace and a comfortable lounge area so that having fun never gets in the way of being productive. We have a lot of recreational tools at our disposal and an open-plan layout really encourages direct communication. In addition, we have a cosy place in Tallinn which we share with AI and Machine Learning Specialists from MindTitan.
Working here is diverse and exciting
Constant movement and going with the flow accurately describe gotoAndPlay’s everyday life (taking an example from river Emajõgi that runs by our Tartu office). We are thrilled to take on any new challenges – making impossible missions possible, constant brainstorming and actions to improve our work-life are in our DNA.
