About TGA Digital

TGA Digital are a UK based company founded by Mike Sastry (CEO) & Paul Chudleigh (CTO).

We offer secure long term employment. We build teams for the long term, not for a specific project.

We are friendly, smart experienced and our staff retention shows we are good to work with.

Our client vary wildly from major UK companies eg: Intu, Guardian newspaper. To mid sized and even some startups or innovation projects.

Our tech stacks vary also but there are some repeating patterns. Python (Django quite often), .Net, JS approaches Angular/Node/React - AWS, Docker, Puppet, Jenkins seem to recurre quite a lot.

We pay well, in $, but you can probably get a few $ more freelancing. We offer benefits though and we don't drop the team if the work is quiet. Quieter times are for learning training, adding certifications etc as we invest in your skills.

If you like very small companies or start-ups we are probably not for you.
If you like massive companies we are not for you.
We are currently 30 people. We plan to grow to around 50.
50 really smart flexible guys who work together for many years.

We have been working with remote teams since 2004.

Interviewing what to expect: as mentioned we are looking for long term staff so there are 3 stages. Culture fit and communications, Technical interview, Interview by senior Devs.

English: 95% of all work is done in text English, so text EN needs to be good. Not perfect. Good. Fast in chat. understandable. but we don't care about grammar and spelling so much. Good spoken EN is a bonus, not vital.



Hope that gives you an idea about us
Hope to talk to you soon
Mike
