Developex

Developex, which says it has been in the market for twenty years, builds custom software and firmware, and much of its work runs from the chips inside consumer devices to the apps that control them. The company reports more than 350 IT specialists and says its teams sit in Europe, North America and Asia, which lets it offer both nearshore and offshore engineering.

Firmware and drivers for hardware makers

The firm works close to the hardware, developing firmware, embedded software and microcontroller code, and writing the drivers that let a device communicate with a computer or phone. Its audio drivers serve premium brands, according to the company, and its work for portable multi-speaker systems, gaming headphones and Bluetooth Low Energy devices includes wristbands and sport and health trackers. The company summarizes its aim as helping makers ship better devices faster.

Companion apps and control software

Many of the products it has worked on need a companion. Developex describes mobile and desktop applications that configure a device and keep its settings in step, along with control software for smart home systems and computer monitoring tools. Its gaming projects include peripherals management and configuration software, and it has built cross-platform software development kits for gaming devices, together with AI features for audio products.

Teams that grow in stages

The firm also provides dedicated teams and staff augmentation. It says it usually starts with a team of three to ten engineers and adds people as a project grows. Its development process, which it says has been refined since 2001 over more than 20,000 man-months of delivered services, is built on structured risk management with a lean, experimental approach. Recruitment is run as a scalable process to place experienced engineers on client work quickly, and the company says it keeps transparency and accountability inside every stage.

Web, mobile, cloud and AI work

Beyond devices, the company lists web and mobile applications, cloud platforms, AI and machine learning features, and technology staffing. Its mobile work covers iOS, Android and cross-platform builds, and its design service includes user interface and user experience solutions, with early product planning. The company describes its model as a win-win partnership, in which the client's success is treated as its own.
