At Source Allies, we have a vision to be the preferred place of employment for collaborative technologists seeking mastery. For us, success requires a blend of likability, creativity, knowledge, and drive. We often talk about and demonstrate our shared values that align us is our company vision: Be a Teacher, Leader, Expert, and Owner.
Our Values
Be a Leader
Leadership is situational and inspirational. From day one, as teammates, we can take the lead when we have the knowledge and vantage point to influence the best decision. Our strongest leaders are team players who inspire us, offer valuable feedback, and support their fellow allies.
Be an Expert
We believe that the pursuit of mastering a craft is a lifelong journey. Consistently practicing and pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone will ultimately outperform natural-born talent. The key is to be driven, committed, and passionate about what you’re doing.
Be an Owner
Ownership is a mindset that is empowering and rewarding; it is the key to our success. We treat every product we build as if it were our own and balance short-term wins with long-term success. Our self-directed culture allows our teams to take responsibility for their decisions and gives them the freedom to shape their own futures.
Our Source Allies team was able to quickly come in and begin delivering business value incrementally to move us forward on our digital strategy. Besides delivering quality software, they demonstrated an engineering mindset and practices that helped push our culture forward on our journey.
