Our values

We treat clients the way we would want to be treated, providing trust, innovation, and well-documented software products that everyone is passionate and proud of.

Trust is Everything

Trust is the baseline for how we work. We communicate clearly, surface risks early, and do what we say we will. Our clients rely on us to be transparent, accountable, and steady under pressure.

Owning It

We take responsibility for our decisions and the systems we build. If something breaks, we fix it. If something can be better, we improve it. We don’t hide behind process or handoffs.

Always Exploring

We test new ideas, challenge assumptions, and improve continuously. We’re willing to rethink our approach when the situation demands it and we learn quickly from what doesn’t work.

People First

We treat clients and teammates with respect and directness. We support each other, share credit, and build an environment where people can grow without ego getting in the way.

    join our growing team – work smart, live well

    At Spiral Scout, we’re all about building products that get used, solving real problems, and making sure our team has the freedom to enjoy life outside of work. That’s why we created “Friyays”—26 extra Fridays off a year (yep, every other Friday is yours) on top of PTO, paid holidays and sick days. Because we know that rested minds build better things. We’re big on learning and growth, too. Whether it’s English classes, professional training, or deep dives into the latest tech, we invest in our team so they can keep leveling up.

    Curious? We’d love to tell you more about what makes working at Spiral Scout fun, flexible, and fulfilling.

    get to know spiral scout

    We focus on solving the problem of engineering bottlenecks. We exist to help companies build software that is genuinely fast, scalable, and reliable. Spiral Scout combines practical custom development, production-ready AI engineering, and technical strategy to ensure your product team can ship more, with less friction.

    We operate as a force-multiplying extension of your internal team. From initial Discovery to long-term application support, our model is built on seamless collaboration, crystal-clear communication, and predictable delivery. We work side-by-side with your product and engineering leadership.

    Our team is composed of seasoned technologists, Lead Software Architects, AI Developers, Product-Focused Engineers, and Technical Strategists, who have spent years building and scaling complex digital products for both fast-moving startups and large enterprises. We bring operational experience, not just coding ability.

    Spiral Scout is headquartered in San Francisco, with distributed senior engineering hubs across Europe and North America. This setup is intentional: it ensures significant time zone overlap with U.S.-based product teams, facilitating real-time collaboration and enabling continuous, predictable progress on development.

    We partner with companies at inflection points: fast-moving startups establishing market fit, mid-stage growth companies hitting their scaling wall, and enterprises that must either modernize a core legacy system or integrate AI into their actual production environment. They all have one thing in common: they need reliable, senior execution on complex features.
