Our Core Values

At Alpinum, we are proud to be a people-first organization: we value our employees, clients, partners and community above everything else we do here.

We seek to establish, nurture and enrich our relationships with each other to build better outcomes for people and businesses. Yes, we absolutely love technology, solve complex and challenging problems and we achieve amazing business outcomes – however that is a sheer consequence of what we value: our people, and what we cherish: our culture.

The following core values extend and amplify our ‘people-first’ mindset.

Underlying this principle are two notions: we always do what’s right for the customer, focusing on the long term and… we get the job done, on target. We don’t build technology for technology’s sake, rather we are driven by our customer’s business strategy and context that ensures that our work is aligned, relevant and valuable. It helps us stay laser focused on strategic priorities, while allowing us to constantly validate the priorities against changes in our execution environment.

While we use agile and lean methods to build all the cool stuff for our customers, we go much beyond that to actually integrate it into our core philosophy – both at work and outside. This implies multiple things: our engagement model is flexible and adaptable, our processes are simple and lightweight, our methods are pragmatic and empirical, we build iteratively in increments and we bias for action and outcomes.

We strive to be humble and curious all the time. We question status quo, constantly seeking to improve and become better as individuals and as a team. We are not afraid to play devil’s advocate; we frequently step outside our respective roles to understand and help each other while not being afraid to seek help when needed.

We are a team of diverse individuals from different backgrounds that share a common thread: we are all passionate and relentless about our chosen fields of expertise, while having fun and creating a healthy working environment. We strive to earn mutual trust and respect by valuing diversity and presumption of positive intent.
