We solve problems with code

Who are we?

Thought Driven Development is a remote-first web consultancy based in the western hemisphere.

We are a collective of polyglots, fluent in many modes: languages like Ruby JavaScript, Elixir, Golang, TDD, as well as processes and philosophies, like XP and human-centered design. We seek to study the idioms of modern web development to gain knowledge and insight, never to obscure with double-speak. Our goal is to be driven, not by strict conformity to any trend, but by thoughtfulness.

What do we do?

We work on a variety of projects in the academic and commercial spaces.

We use our own, constantly evolving processes to identify problems, generate thoughtful solutions, and deliver them on-time and on-budget. We recognize that resources are limited and we work hard to understand businesses holistically and map out cost-efficient solutions before jumping in with code.
