Our Team

N. is responsible for managing the business side of things while also being involved heavily in the technical side of the business. (With a background in FPGA-based graph processing they are used to dealing with interconnected systems that that have a lot of things going on simultaneously.)

In their spare time they manage the twitter account of their two cats, and galvanize their co-workers by seamlessly switching between 4 languages.
