Want to become part of an agile company in the complex maritime industry? Want to help modernise shipping and fisheries? You can do this in an innovative and inclusive environment where we keep the customer in focus.
Helping the maritime industry companies evolve with better IT solutions requires empathy, passion, and tenacity.
In Dualog, we focus on helping our customers realise their challenges and pains. This needs empathy. We create solid and secure software that addresses their pains. This needs passion. The industry is conservative and slow to change. This is why tenacity is key.
Dualog has been in the game since 1994. We've been at the forefront, innovating ship-shore communication and helping customers get more out of IT.
The speed of progress in maritime is picking up. And we run faster.In the past few years, we have ramped up our innovation speed. We created our very own innovation garage, launched several major products, and upgraded our solutions faster than ever before. We have adopted agile development methodologies, focus on apps, cloud solutions, and Open Source. Development work hand-in-hand with Operations in a practical DevOps fashion. Our Support is often referred to as the best in the industry. We're direct and cut to the core of the issues at hand.
As a tightly integrated company, Sales work together with Support, Operations and Support are tight, Development, QA, and Operations are close, and Management is a thin layer that is hands-on.
Sure, we have our challenges. It's sometimes tough to fuse very different cultures across the globe. Business is handled quite differently in Norway and Singapore. We know this and continually work to bridge the gaps and use each culture's strengths.
Being so focused on the customers, we tend to travel a lot, especially the people working in marketing, sales, and deployment. We attend conferences, travel to customers and their ships, and keep in sync with what's moving in the market.Enough of the general introduction. Let's hear how it is to work in Dualog from our employees:
