会社概要Company profile [Company Profile]
In the Japanese market, the demand for engineers exceeds the supply, and offshore development is the only way to secure the supply of engineers.
However, quality control is often an issue, and to provide an appropriate solution, the company provides global development management and quality control under the concept of 'Japanese Global PM Group', offering a one-stop service from strategic consulting to development.

[Background of recruitment]
For expansion

[Attractive points of company/work]
・The position allows you to propose your own know-how as a common indicator for the entire company, and to absorb the know-how of others and create your own standards for global development!
・The company places great importance on "learning from the past", and while learning from the standards set by its predecessors, it aims to standardise these standards in a way that is relevant to the current era, and to manage global development.

[Company culture]
(1) The importance of using "accurate Japanese"
In fact, many Japanese people do not use correct Japanese, and have conversations based on the unique nuances, context, and tacit understanding between Japanese people. However, when working with people from overseas, even if the Japanese instructions were translated, there would be many cases where it doesn't come across accurately. This is also evident in chats and materials. They write specifications in English or Japanese, and have local translators translate them so that engineers in each country can understand the project better. Therefore, if the original words are not correct, the translation will not convey the message accurately. In order to create an accurate system, it is necessary to be able to define and express it in precise terms.

(2) Importance of improving my communication skills through asynchronous/multitasking.
Of course, meetings should be held on a set schedule (synchronous communication), such as telephone calls and video conferences, but traditional communication such as making a sudden phone call and conveying the main points with less urgent matters is also important. This method is strictly avoided. This is because synchronous communication disrupts the rhythm of the other person's work. Therefore, they place importance on communicating asynchronously with each other through chat-based tools such as Slack, and working on multiple projects through multitasking.

(3) Aiming to improve efficiency in the software production process
They are trying to introduce AI, bots, and automation quickly and with generous budgets. They believe the possibility of GPT4 replacing many jobs is the most talked about topic in the world right now. If leaving it to AI and bots can save labor in the software production process, they plan to create a small, elite management group. In addition, they aim to create a work environment where highly specialized employees who are raising children can balance childcare with work and lead a fulfilling lifestyle. Currently, they have introduced a "company-led babysitter subsidy system,'' in which the government subsidizes part or all of the sitter service fee to make it easier for talented people to balance childcare and childcare.
*Available only for the recruitment in Japan

For this reason, they do not perform any work in a specific office and generally allow remote work. However, flexibility in working arrangements also comes with responsibility, so quick responses via chat are required, and those who have difficulty communicating may be required to come to work. (There are currently no cases in the past) Depending on the position, you may be required to come to work 2-3 times a week.
