Our values

JazzTeam was founded in 2011 by Dzmitry Harachka, a Java developer and architect with extensive industry experience, a Masters in Engineering and a SCJP/SCWCD, and XP/Scrum practitioner. Before establishing his own company, our founder was professionally engaged in Java development on international projects for many years. During this time, it became clear to him that the Java platform is one of the most versatile and effective technologies for providing Agile-oriented IT services.

While building the JazzTeam philosophy and processes, our founder was inspired by the postulates and principles of the Agile manifesto, which is why JazzTeam management practices are based on the Agile methodology. This approach allows the effective building of processes on projects, the meeting of customer needs, a high level of service, and the creation of solutions that are important to the business and meet customer requirements.
