Working in teams
Our structure organized in teams makes us dynamic, pragmatic and effective. The team mixes different skills in order to face challenges in an integral way, focusing on guaranteeing quality and “on time” deliveries.
This structure, composed of a Product Owner, Scrum Master and a Development Team, allows us to adapt to each project, with its requirements and demands. Each cell is made up of approximately 10 people, and manages between 1 and 3 projects simultaneously.
If we amalgamate, there are no limits.
All teams are supported by an additional cell: a backup team that complements the needs of each team in order to enhance the result of all of our projects.
This way, different dynamics, meetings and spaces are generated to achieve the following:

Since we know users and contexts change, we have tools and processes that allow us to be dynamic and to innovate constantly
Design Thinking
In Amalgama we have developed our own methodology that combines the latest best practices (Customer Discovery, Design Thinking and Lean Development) to help you through the definition, creation and validation of your business. Through a Discovery phase and an active process of listening to your potential users, we help you develop the best digital solutions.
-
Discovery
The first step is to analyze the market and our potential users. Our goal is to identify main competitors, and to understand our user's pains, gains and wishes.
-
Definition
In order to propose a challenging and overcoming solution, we need to have a wide vision of the needs, preferences and characteristics of the target audience. Once the discovery phase is concluded, we define the most important concepts and insights for your business.
-
Ideation and prototyping
Using Design Sprint, a prototyping methodology developed by Google Ventures, we create a digital and interactive prototype that is able to solve the defined problem.
-
Evaluate
Once the prototype is designed, we go back to potential users to validate and test the proposed solution, as well as identifying improvement opportunities.
Design
It is key to be able to transmit the core values and identity of the brand in each process and service that we provide. That is why we make sure that every design transmits the desired message.
-
Research
we investigate your brand and market with the goal of understanding the concept to be communicated and the user that wants to be reached.
-
Corporate Identity
we design the corporate brand book that will work as a guide for all corporate communications.
-
Userflow
we structurize the user flow to define how the platform that we are designing will be used.
-
Wireframes
we define the site’s layout, the texts to be implemented and the hierarchy of the elements that better adapt to your user’s needs.
-
Look & feel
we implement the designs aligned with the brand’s identity.
Development
Within agile methodologies, there are different frameworks. In Amalgama we work with SCRUM. This consists in having two-week iterations (sprints) that begin with a Planning meeting, where the client together with the team define which functionalities will be developed, and finish with a Review meeting where the team shows the client the value added during that sprint. We follow several Best Practices to make sure that our code is robust, scalable and understandable.
-
Different development environments
We use different environments to test functionalities throughout the different stages: development, staging and production. This guarantees that every functionality that we deliver has been tested and validated.
-
Code Quality & Coverage
To guarantee our code’s effectivity, we have several tools that help us test it is working as expected: Unit testing, TDD, Cucumber, Continuous Integration, among others.
-
Code Review & Pair programming
To foster the continuous improvement and technical and professional growth of our team, we count on different development methodologies such as: code review and pair programming.
-
Devops
To maintain robust, updated and functional developments we work from the architectural planning of each server to the automation of processes, following our quality standards.
-
Scalability
We rely on Cloud Computing services to supply the resources needed for each stage of the project.
