Gluon offers specialised software development and consultancy services for small-to-medium financial services organisations that see technology as a key enabler of their success, yet can’t (or won’t) invest in an in-house IT team.

Our unique delivery model combines London-based analysis, design and project management with delivery from our team of talented developers in the Philippines.

Results, service and care levels are those you would expect from the best front-office tech teams in the City. Costs? Refreshingly close to your average total outsourcing initiative, only without the risk and the hassle.

Since the early 80’s, IT has shaped the way financial markets operate. From electronic trading to real-time risk modelling, algorithimic execution to blockchain mobile wallets, virtually all significant innovation in financial services has been inspired and delivered by technology advancements.

However complex to decipher and navigate, current economic conditions offer remarkable opportunities for small-to-medium actors - independent asset managers, trading houses, family offices - to use technology to scout the markets, explore untapped returns opportunities, capture new customers or cement their loyalty, and redefine operational and cost efficiency.

It is essential, for a technology partner, to offer a fitting solution to the extreme competitive pressure, the do more with less dilemma that companies like yours are facing.

Your vision, our reach.

OUR CLIENTS

WHO WE ARE

#gluon #gluonconsulting http://gluonconsulting.com getintouch@gluonconsulting.com

We follow a disciplined and transparent approach to every step of our software engineering process.

Your business domain and requirements are discussed and clarified in a number of no-frills, face-to-face interviews with as many as possible of your stakeholders: users and technical owners, upper management and operations.

We design and implement on uncompromised quality metrics. Efficiency and integrity of execution, scalability and resilience on the business layers, a sophisticated yet streamlined user experience, openness to change and extension - they are all built-in qualities of our software, never afterthoughts or billable gimmicks.

And don’t we love new technology, especially when it's open source and its evolution rests on a small army of competent developers! We always advocate solid, community-driven applications and frameworks over commercial products: a sure-fire way to keep quality high, time-to-live short and costs low.

We develop in Microsoft .NET, Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, Scala, Python, and PHP. We work across desktop, web and mobile. We fully embrace Agile/Scrum methodologies – a rigorous yet flexible approach to business and requirements analysis, design, engineering and project management.

If your ideas are growing faster than you can throw good resources at, we can help. We can provide you with a team of experienced consultant developers who will serve as a remote extension of your internal team and boost your ability to scale, deliver on time and budget and succeed.

Your new remote team will possess the appropriate skills to hit the ground running, report to your project leads and integrate seamlessly with your engineering and management processes.

While they engage with you, our consultants will be monitored and trained to ensure they stay relevant to your requirements and quality standards.

We will analyse your problem domain and business requirements and propose you the optimal mix of new functionalities and integration with existing applications and systems.

We can be laser-focused on a specialised component or a critical area of improvement, or build from scratch your new flagship product, or a complete platform that delivers value across the entire organisation.

We will not stop listening, delivering and refining until your platform or product is solid, current, and delivers well in excess of your expectations.
