Mission
Our mission in Engineering is simple yet powerful: build a product our customers love and be a high-performing product organization.
With a team of 78 talented professionals across four offices and two regions, we transform ideas into robust, secure, and innovative solutions that empower HR teams across the Nordics and beyond.
💻 What We Do
Engineering at CatalystOne is where architecture meets innovation.
We design and build the core of CatalystOne’s HCM suite, ensuring that every feature we deliver is scalable, secure, and valuable to customers.
Our guiding architectural principles keep us focused on simplicity, security, quality, and documentation. We believe:
- Keep it Smart and Simple: Favor simplicity and iterative evolution over complexity.
- Build securely, always: Security is everyone’s responsibility, embedded in every step.
- Think quality from the start: Quality gates and safeguards enable confident, continuous releases.
- Make documentation a first-class citizen: For ourselves, our teams, and those who come after us.
- Make insightful decisions: Grounded in data to avoid over- or under-engineering.
- Standardization over freedom of choice: We value stability in our tech choices.
Our hybrid architecture blends the best of both worlds:
- Single-tenant monolith applications tailored for each customer.
- Multi-tenant services shared across customers for efficiency and scalability.

- Increasing software delivery velocity
