Life at Octobot

What it’s like to be part of our team

Founded on the desire to change people’s lives

Octobot was created by three friends in 2014. Lucho, Guille and Paco share a passion for software and believe in the power of technology to improve people’s lives.

Years went by and, from a garage startup, Octobot became a thriving business with presence in Uruguay, Argentina, Colombia and the USA. All of this was possible thanks to our supporters; they've made all the difference. We believe in the importance of offering our team every opportunity to improve their skills, gain practical experience, and learn from each other in a collaborative, friendly environment. We are proud of our digital products because they also make a difference in other people’s lives.

Our team has grown to more than 100 people, but we still remain that company where friends work and grow side by side.

This is what the team has to say about life at Octobot:

“At Octobot we have endless opportunities for professional growth: financial support for taking courses, training, conferences, and more. There are also daily opportunities to grow on a personal level with teamwork and leaders who support you every step of the way, and value your daily work and effort. Here, your contribution counts and the space for feedback is always present.”

“One of the most outstanding things about Octobot is the collaborative environment and the great relationships felt among the people who work here. I have worked on interesting and challenging projects that have helped me grow and evolve as a professional. I also enjoy the flexibility and work-life balance that Octobot provides.”

"What I like most about working at Octobot is being part of a close team that is always there to learn, and to work and face challenges together; we have the space to share ideas, ask for opinions, grow, and understand each other, which is an important part of the great synergy we create together. I also appreciate the ability to choose where to work based on what I need."

Florencia ManganelliUX Designer

"First as a developer, and now as a Delivery Lead, I always felt the space to propose my own ideas and improve myself in accordance with my interests. Octobot's constant progress generates challenging projects that motivate people."

Rodrigo TrellesDelivery Lead

"We are a team with diverse experiences, ages, and knowledge, and are still able to respect each other and take advantage of those differences. You can always find someone willing to help and teach. Also, I want to highlight the work of the team leaders and Octobot founders, as they make us feel part of all achievements and recognize the entire team when goals are met."

“Octobot is my first work experience and it is a job that fits my student life well. I would like to mention the enormous amount of knowledge that is learned every day, as well as the great group of people that make up the company, allowing relationships to grow beyond the work.”
