Software Development

Experienced software developers, full-stack engineers and DevOps engineers
- all on the autism spectrum and ready to work on your next project.

Software development and migration

Knowledge about, and the desire for, programming is what brings most of our employees to Unicus. The most commonly used coding languages ​​among our employees are C#, C++, Java, Javscript, and Python. These proficiencies are often acquired through a combination of formal education and personal development in private.
 
We observe that if an employee knows one language, they have breeze learning other languages. There are concrete examples where employees learned to code in Cobol or script in Unix during assignments.
 
Our experience shows that our employees are a valued resource in developer teams. We are at our best when given the role of an executionary resource and able to work in contexts where tasks are defined jointly and distributed.

HOW IT WORKS

Autistic Talent

Our consultants have cognitive abilities that provide exceptional value in the tech space. Logic, speed, precision, sustained concentration, and an ability to intuitively spot errors provide a uniquely autistic perspective on your tech projects.

Meeting customer requirements

We carefully match each consultant to your requirements, your culture, and your organization’s neurodiversity objectives. Our autistic consultants provide expertise of in-demand skills. They are integrated in your teams and operate like employees, much like all team members.

Ensuring success

Our consulting managers play a central role in your success, acting as a liaison between you and the autistic consultant, working hand-in-hand to communicate timelines, manage expectations, resolve needs, and ensure the ultimate success of your program.

Advantages of Unicus consultants

Autistic adults often possess extrodinary cognitive abilities. Although autistic strengths are very individually different, academic research shows many advantages:

  • Great analytical and systematic ability
  • Innovative and creative intelligence
  • High quality and productivity
  • Honesty

The consulting manager ensures success!

All consultants and customers of Unicus are supported by our consulting manageres, who ensure that the consultants’ work environments enable them to deliver their fullest potential. Our consulting managers empower inclusivity and wellbeing, and are detremental to making our consultants feel supported in their assignments. Most importantly, they give our customers support and information about autism in the workplace and can mediate feedback between customer and consultant.
