Culture at Affyn

The team shipped out 2 successful major releases in the past 3 months. While we value velocity, we do not compromise on quality. Our support teams are able to raise tickets to the engineering teams quickly and fixes are tested and pushed out expeditiously. We are pragmatic in the choice of our technologies and do not chase technologies blindly.

Engineers are empowered to explore new technologies and bring it to the team for discussion. Thus, all are encouraged to stay updated on the latest in the market and share. A channel in our discord is dedicated for us to share what we read and discovered, and more technical matters are shared and brought up at the weekly standup. Engineers are also encouraged to attend conferences and tech meetups to keep abreast of latest technologies.

Our engineering teams are housed under the Product arm of Affyn. Engineers are heavily involved in the visioning and implementation phases. They identify pain points, gaps and have a large say on the Product roadmap and prioritization of features. Outside of Product, we work closely with various teams (e.g. Marketing and Operations) to automate our business processes and utilize tech to generate greater impact and results from marketing campaigns. 

Documentation for backend APIs are generated automatically using docgen or OpenAPI Specifications. Code documentations are hosted on Confluence for ease of sharing between engineering teams. 

As our teams deal with large amount of data (i.e. billions of records), the teams often hold discussions on time and space complexity in our Sprints.

We practice secure coding and engage third parties to audit our smart contracts and perform penetration tests on our products before every release.

We employ multiple tech stacks across our products (e.g. MongoDB, ExpressJS, ReactJS, NodeJS (MERN Stack) for Marketplace, Unity for Games and Solidity for Blockchain Smart Contracts) and currently have dev and production workloads on multiple clouds (AWS, Azure and GCP). 

When we hire, we look at competencies and how the candidates are able to perform in the team. 

We hardly spoke about DEI not because we do not practise it but is because it is our second nature in the way we hire, appraise and reward. It is already in our DNA. 

To help involve everyone, we have Chill Friday during office hours. 40% of the management is made up of Women leaders.
A diversified team in Affyn, ranging from different nationalities, age group, interest and personality. 

The team uses AWS CodePipeline and Serverless Framework to deploy our backend codes to AWS Elastic Beanstalk, AWS Lambda and API Gateway. Our frontend code repositories are tied to AWS Amplify. Any changes on a branch will trigger an automatic deployment to the respective environment. Deployments are straightforward and we apply rolling updates to our Production setups to avoid downtime. 

We are led by data-driven leaders with rich experiences in using data to make strategic and informed business decisions. Together with various stakeholders, the teams define use cases, critical paths and events to ensure that our data instruments capture accurate and meaningful data to aid us in understanding our users' journey and the flows around it. 

Our leaders discuss and create a preliminary set of OKRs for the teams. The OKRs together with the rationale behind decisions are next shared with the teams and feedback are sought from all members before decisions are made. These OKRs are hosted centrally for quick and easy access. 

In Product, an all-hands session is conducted every fortnight and at the company level, a townhall (a.k.a "chill out friday") is conducted on a monthly basis to introduce new initiatives, co-workers and forge stronger bonds and friendships across departments.
