Lead Developer at Mavericks: a Witted company

Mavericks was built on a promise

We wanted to disrupt software consulting by providing the fairest and most transparent salary model on the market for senior software consultants. Looking at where we are now, it’s clear we succeeded.

We started in 2019, and we ended that year with six consultants and one person running the business. Today, we have approximately 60 consultants and offices in Helsinki and Oslo.

We have grown to serve both large and small clients, private and public sectors, domestic and international. They all share the need for experienced software consultants. We believe that our promise is still the most competitive on the market for experienced developers.
