- Build reliable and scalable back-end functionality and APIs to power our front-end clients
- Build beautiful front-end experiences

Our Values
We believe values aren't just a top-down process but a collective effort. Our values: integrity, balance, growth, and results, guide us in decision-making and shape our behavior. We speak our truth, keep our promises, and trust each other. We embrace failure, curiosity, and continuous improvement. We ask questions without fear of judgment. We value harmony within ourselves, our team, and our community because we understand that it leads to better results. We look at outcomes over outputs and enjoy working hard (and having fun) together.
How We Work
At Boomerang, we are here to learn and become better leaders, managers, and people. You are encouraged to spend 80% of your time on core projects and 20% on innovation activities that pique your interests (including things outside of work). We enforce no meeting Fridays to allow time for these projects.
