026 - Vehikl: Under The Hood (pt. 2)

Torqd

Today we're discussing what's going on at the London Vehikl office! The London team has recently moved into a new building. The building is a beautiful and modern location. Caryn and James work in the London office and join us to tell us what it is like to work there, and what it's like working for Vehikl for general.

The London location is hiring developers. It is a nine person team and looking to grow. Caryn and James walk us through their on-boarding process and tell us what they look for in a new team member.

We also discuss the flourishing Dev community in London. Caryn tells us about the local meetups, conferences, and potential partnerships the London office may consider further down the line.

Some of the meetups and conferences James and Caryn mentioned today are:

• Fanshawe Reactr Program
• UX Centre Stage
• Explode Conference
• DevLondon meetup
