Intellisys is like a big family with good communication and cooperation.

We work passionately on every project and we aim to train and be constantly productive. But we also highly value team-building activities – like our amazing Margarita Fridays, incredible costume parties, Dominican Food Mondays, and other activities planned to make us gather as one big family.

Why Intellisys

Value Proposition

Whether we add value or not is up to the customer. We cannot know whether we will add value until we begin to work together, nor do we know the time period during which we will be the most helpful. If at any time the client is not satisfied with our product, we do not charge for the time that we do not add value. We are pleased to have customers who are comfortable working with us and to whom we can still add value. The added value of our time zone allows us to be available during most business hours in North America.
Client Nirvana

Our main purpose is to elevate our customers to a state of Nirvana. We want them to develop a sense of support, where they can sit in peace of mind and can be confident that their project will move forward.
Hire a Team

We offer the option of hiring a complete team (developer + scrum master integrated), adapted to any Agile methodology with which the customer can identify. Furthermore, we integrate ourselves into the customer’s team in a way that we not only work for but also form an integral part of their team.

Solutions & Expertise

Solutions

Intellisys is a software development company that specializes in distributed Web, Mobile and Desktop applications, Custom Apps, Custom Databases and Enterprise Integration. We solve complex problems at a reasonable cost and deliver high quality software solutions that are critical to our clients' business. We structure our service delivery in a way that best meets our clients’ needs.
Technologies

At Intellisys, we use a number of technologies and programming languages to develop software and web pages that are in line with our customers’ needs. We specialize in the following technologies: C#4, PHP, Python, Java, Ruby and JavaScript. We also specialize in various frameworks, including: Sitecore, drupal, Wordpress, ASP.Net MVC, NodeJs, and Jquery.
Methodologies

While we experiment with different development methodologies and practices in order to find what works best for each client, the methodology we have found that best fits our values is Agile, even though we cannot yet say that we are 100% agile. We generally work within the Scrum framework, building cross-functional teams, working in iterations, appointing a product owner and identifying a scrum master.

We also frequently work with other techniques, including TDD, CI, BDD, Kanban, and Agile Manifesto principles. We experiment with these methodologies and practices in order to find harmony within each client’s context, and we continue experimenting in order to continuously improve.

The Team

Fiebruses @ Intellisys

Training

At Intellisys, we focus on acquiring new knowledge every day. With this in mind, our team is in constant training to keep up-to-date with nascent technologies

JP's training

Every year we take part in JP Boodhoo’s Training, where our developers have the opportunity to develop their programming skills over the span of one to two weeks. In our developers’ own words, this training opens their minds, especially since it provides four years of a given developer’s experience during the course of just one week. They truly see the results of the intensity and the pressure they receive from JP - obtaining better perspective as developers and reaching the highest level of abstraction.

Monday's training

We also dedicate our time to training every Monday, in everything from the most basic fundamentals of programming to human relations and knowledge in general. With this end, we create study groups that assign some book or topic every week, which is then discussed while practicing exercises about the topic in question. According to our team, this is the best way to gain the most knowledge possible about programming topics as well as about human interactions. On top of that, it gives them the opportunity to learn about new topics that interest them, thanks to the diversity of the topics that are discussed and, perhaps most importantly, thanks to the teamwork involved.

Tribe Openings

Developer

The Developers are part of a team which is responsible for delivering potentially shippable product increments every certain period of time. The Development Team is self-organizing and the team members are dynamic. Developers might switch teams as well as programming languages as needed, to best fit the client's needs.

Our developers must be willing to take on challenging projects using the latest, cutting-edge technologies. A Development Team is made up of 3 - 9 people with cross-functional skills who do the actual work (analyze, design, develop, test, etc.) to turn great ideas into great user functionality.

Firefighter

The Firefighter is our brand name for the Scrum Master. The Firefighter is the person who is accountable for removing impediments to the ability of the team to deliver the goals and features in the designated timeframe.The Firefighter is not the team leader, but acts as a buffer between the team and any distracting influences.

Very often, a Firefighter is mistaken to be a Project Manager. Although these roles have a lot in common, a Firefighter will not give orders or the team members what to do. The Firefighter ensures that the development process flows as intended, is the enforcer of rules and protects the Development Team and keeps it focused on the tasks at hand.

Intellisys History

Chris wanted to move back to the Dominican Republic, but jobs for programmers there did not have decent wages back in 2004. He thought, “Hey, I can just start my own programming company…”

But his boss shot down his idea quickly. After a shift in hierarchy in his workplace, Chris began working for a new boss that thought Chris’ idea had potential – in his own words, he said, “Let’s give it a try.” At that point, in 2006, this second boss gave Chris a small project, which Chris sent to a freelance programmer in the D.R. When that project went well, his boss continued to hand over more and bigger projects, which Chris in turn would hand over to more freelance developers in the D.R.

Chris never saw himself as a business man, nor did he ever have a vision for the future – things simply evolved. Chris observed and took note of what was working and what was not with the programmers in the D.R., all while continuing to work in New York.

Eventually, Chris ran into issues with the freelancers, who in time became irresponsible and for whom Chris would need to pick up the slack. In 2007, he decided to round up the three developers he had worked with up to that point, rent an apartment in Santiago and have them work from there.
Three developers grew to six by 2008.

One of the programmers mentioned to Chris in passing that he had plans to emigrate to Canada, but since he had started working for Chris’ company he had changed his plans and stayed. Chris was surprised and asked, “What company?”
Chris still saw himself as more of a developer than a CEO, a role he realized he had to grow into if indeed he was going to have a company. The biggest struggle he faced was his inexperience as a manager, and in his wavering efforts to create the right environment for his employees, several developers left in the face of some of Chris’ larger mistakes.

Amongst all of the management flops and mishaps (there was one point in 2008 where Chris literally fired every developer that was not willing to work according to some basic guidelines, which was all except one), one of the aspects of the company that Chris is proud of is how organization emerged from the chaos.

Despite his realization that he had to become a manager of people and not just be a developer anymore, he strived (and still does) for zero hierarchy and no defined roles. He studied how top organizations worked, including Toyota and Google; looked into different methodologies, ranging from Agile to Speed of Trust; and aspired to inspire a self-organizing culture among his employees.

Culture

Here at Intellisys we strive to obtain an environment that allows for the free flow of creativity, where each member of the team can feel comfortable and confident in their work. This is why we have habituated our offices in such a way that our team can feel free to share their thoughts and ideas, and most importantly, have fun!

We are open to new and innovative ideas that continually challenge the status quo. Our team is provided with opportunities to excel in courses and training sessions both within and outside of the Dominican Republic, in locations ranging from New York to New Mexico. We strive for a community of talented developers that are looking to grow not only professionally but personally, who are willing to become the best people they can be. And to those who show great potential and are willing to learn as much as possible, we employ without any concern about previous experience.

We are programming fiends. We work passionately on every project and we aim to train and be constantly productive. But we also highly value team-building activities – like our amazing Margarita Fridays, incredible costume parties, Dominican Food Mondays, and other activities planned to make us gather as one big family.
These activities also range from monthly potlucks outside of the office to all-inclusive, expenses-paid trips to any of the beautiful resorts on the island.
We ❤ the beach.

We get up every day with one goal: to develop great people within our impressive culture and to fuel them with the passion to provide only the best to our clients.
