Structuring Front-end Teams

One of our core values at Chromatic is to “delight our clients”. There are numerous ways that we try to bring delight, but as developers and designers one of our most frequent deliverables is code; our particular development and quality assurance (QA) workflow helps us deliver high-quality code to our clients’ production environments more frequently, in smaller change-sets. This results in our clients seeing their requested changes more quickly, and when a bug does slip through (nobody’s perfect), we are able to identify it and squash it in record time. We attempt to automate as much of this process as possible saving more time for the pieces that require human touch.

As a long-time remote employee, the COVID-19 pandemic hasn’t disrupted my daily life as it has for many others. Several years ago I moved from the city to a rural community with no access to high-speed internet. I needed to adapt quickly to my new reality and find a reasonable solution for my work and family needs.

Chromatic has never had an office. You read that correctly, we’ve never had an office. We have been operating as a fully distributed team for over twelve years, and if I can humbly say, we’re pretty darn good at it.
