Clement Poursac
Mobile app product manager, Photoweb
“From my side, I have been working with ImproveIT for more than 3 years now, as a mobile app product manager for the Photoweb brand. The technical challenge is quite high as our mobile apps let our users personalize their photos to create some printing products. And some of them, like the photobook, can be pretty tricky when the mobile app has to manage several personalization actions in parallel.
Now about the management/support team, I can assure you that they are effective, flexible, nice to work with, and very welcoming (I recommend you to visit them in Chernivtsi which is by the way a very beautiful city). When we have to hire someone in our dev team, the HR department is very effective and always finds out some good candidates. About the dev team: for now and over these last years they have been highly motivated, committed and professional. To sum up, I can only recommend to work with ImproveIT!”
