Axon Active

Swiss-owned, with its teams mainly in Vietnam, Axon Active is a software engineering company. It works from offices in Switzerland, the United States and Vietnam, and it reports more than 650 engineers and more than 40 long-term clients. Its stated aim is to build new products, modernise legacy systems and keep software evolving, with AI used where it adds the most value.

Dedicated development teams

The core offer is a dedicated development team that can be as small as one specialist or as large as a full product squad. Clients can work directly with each expert in the team, which the firm says lets them cover the whole software cycle from design through to development, testing and support. The firm presents this as a way to make a business agile, and it describes the approach as giving clients ownership of their ideas.

AI-first software engineering

AI-first engineering uses AI within the software delivery cycle. The firm builds new products with AI-augmented teams, delivers faster on existing roadmaps, and rebuilds engineering processes and tooling around AI-first ways of working. Legacy systems are re-platformed and re-architected for cloud-native operation.

Data engineering, analytics and cloud

The data work includes building pipelines and reporting layers on cloud systems. The DevOps side covers Kubernetes, continuous integration and delivery pipelines, and work across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, with an emphasis on keeping cloud infrastructure running securely and reliably.

Specialist consulting roles

Specialist consulting supplies product owners, business analysts, architects and security experts to fill the roles a client's own team lacks. The firm describes these specialists as part of a full product team rather than as outside advisers.

Training, coaching and agile enablement

Training and coaching support agile and Scrum adoption for engineering teams. The firm's trainers and coaches are described as having practical international experience, and the training is tailored to each client's frameworks and methods.

Values and the Axon Model

The firm builds its work on reliability, transparency, honesty and passion, and it describes its partnerships as long-term. Its delivery method, called the Axon Model, is meant to turn a client's working capacity into individual people whose skills the client knows, and the firm works with fintech companies among others.
