Our client (USA) is a financial data provider and software company with offices in Seattle, New York, San Francisco, and London.

**About project:**
Our client (USA) is a financial data provider and software company with offices in Seattle, New York, San Francisco, and London.

Serving clients not just in America, but in Europe and Asia, we provide thousands of global business professionals (HP, Samsung, Deutsche Bank, and others amongst them) with comprehensive data on the private and public markets to help them discover and execute investment opportunities with confidence.

This is a SaaS company, multiple CODІE Awards winner, that is frequently mentioned in popular media (TechCrunch, GeekWire, Forbes, Business Insider) and referred to in “Silicon Valley” TV series.

The project is mature (15 years) but is still in the active growth phase weekly deploying new features and modules to our customers. Working on that project means participating in the whole business process with the ability to directly influence it (we really mean it).

**Few words about SPD-Ukraine:**

SPD-Ukraine provides software engineering and product development services for clients worldwide-the USA, Israel, Great Britain, and other EU countries. We don’t cooperate with companies in russia and belarus. Global companies like Morningstar, PitchBook, GoDaddy, PieInsurance, floLIVE, SpaceNeedle, and others are our clients. We’re glad that our clients have left the russian market because of the ongoing war in Ukraine.

Our team comprises 550+ specialists certified by Oracle, ISTQB, AWS, PMI, Scrum Alliance, Amazon, and other organizations. Having offices available in Kyiv, Lviv, and Cherkasy, our teams can work remotely without any geographical limitations.
