The culture here is very inclusive.  It’s almost homey.  It really feels like it’s all for one and one for all, because everyone from my manager to all the team members, even really new people—it just feels like we’re a team, like we’re playing with each other and for each other.

At Motus, the people you work with are also the people you’ll hang out with after work, and that’s a great environment to be in. Everyone is wicked smart, intellectually stimulating, and challenging.  We’ve built a culture where people aren’t just going to nod their heads. Our environment truly fosters healthy debate, which is really important in terms of ending up with the best product.

I joined the Motus team because I saw the opportunity to be part of a rapidly growing company with lots of potential.  My current role bridges Operations, Corporate Development, and Services, with my time divided between budgeting and forecasting, process improvement and data integrity, and managing the Services teams. Whether I’m being pulled into a new project by senior management or taking it upon myself to spearhead an initiative or two, every day there’s a new challenge, and that’s exciting.

There is so much opportunity for upward mobility here. Someone can start out doing one thing and end up finding their passion and taking on a completely different role.  That sort of career thoughtfulness is definitely encouraged here: we're being told to think about what we want to do and where we want to go, and there are people in place to help us get there.

There’s a reason I’ve been here for so long—it’s never the same thing, and you never get bored.   When it comes to the technology, we don’t just pick something and stick with it. At most companies, if something’s working, they won’t touch it.  But we do.  Our leadership is always trying to increase efficiency and be on the cutting edge of technology, and if there’s a better way, they let us do it.

My official tagline is that I come up with disruptive technologies that don’t disrupt the company.  I essentially get to go off and do a lot of plate-spinning, and the ideas that stick make it to Development and into our product and out to our user base. It’s exhilarating to have a hand in building solutions that are going to enable the mobile worker—and we’re all mobile workers, really—and help make people’s lives better.
