IT Labs was founded year 2005 in Los Angeles, CA. It was created with a sole purpose to produce the most high-performing, purpose and process-driven software development teams. Since day one we enabled our clients to compete with innovation and efficient development by providing them with turn-key teams, taking on the responsibility to hire, fire and nurture talent for them. Today we count about 700 team members across multiple continents, supporting clients in most time zones. Our certifications include AWS, Azure, ISTQB and ISO certified [ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 20000-1].

HOW WE WORK
From big to small
Over the years we worked with companies on both ends of the spectrum, from big enterprise to small innovative funded startups, and any size in between. Currently 60% of our client base is mid-size companies (mostly PE owned), 20% big enterprise and 20% startups.
Our model is simple, we either provide a dedicated Agile SDLC turnkey team, or we spec and estimate a project and we guarantee our estimates, timing and deliverables, or else. Our talent goes through a very robust selection and training program before they join a team, regardless of their experience.
We are a believer in Agile/Scrum, however, we deploy different versions of agile for dAifferent clients and projects, based on their specific needs and processes.

Thank you all for your hard work. You’ve done great job.
Cairy Craver, CEO
We came into this relationship confidant in our Team choice but with the fear of scorned lovers from our previous team. You have allied those fears and you have made this build experience both fun and rewarding. Your professionalism is inspiring and your creativity is a pleasure to observe. Most impressive has been your ability to understand this entire concept at its core. As we’ve watched you over the last 2 months grasp this and make it your own we could not be more excited and more grateful for the level of professionalism found throughout the IT-Labs Team.
Craig Caryl, Chief Evangelist & Co-Founder
Good year and thanks to all of you.
Incredible team and I wanted to emphasize the following:
1.IT Labs team owned the work, period ! 2.IT Labs team pays attention to detail of PBI/User Story requirements and surface questions when requirement is un-clear. 3.Communication was good – given time differences and changing deliverable schedules, I think we communicated well. 4.IT Labs team was incredibly flexible with changing software delivery schedules.
David Parent, Senior Data Architect
TEAM & TALENT
Our talent goes through multiple stages of development.
65%
of our team is women.
95%
of our leadership is women.
Sourcing
We hire by values. Only the individuals that fit our cultural elements would be suited as part of our teams. English is the official language of the company. Personal interests and hobbies are a must. We like the Star Wars fanatics too.
Training
60% of our talent is homegrown. Every individual entering our company needs to go through a 6 month to a year of training. The training consists of process, hard skills, communication and other identified gaps.
Teaming
Once the individual training is completed, a team member enters a team. At first, they shadow a project for X amount of time, supervised by a mentor. After that, they start in a junior capacity until they are ready for prime time.
Nurturing
Personal growth plans are carefully designed by the HR team and the technology leadership. They include continuous professional education, workshops, events, certifications, Tech Radar Lab and more.

THE PROCESS
How do we develop talent
Our internal Talent Growth Center was created in 2010 in an effort to provide continues generation of talent internally, without the market dependency.
We accept young and talented individuals in 10-people pods.
They start with 3-6 months internal training (depending on their speed and project complexity).
Then they shadow for another 6 months supervised by a mentor, typically a team lead.
Finally, they start working in a junior role supervised by the team lead and monitored by the TGC coordinators.
Give back
IT Labs has done numerous charitable initiatives for many non-profits or individuals in need. Our latest edition of the Reimagine Conference had 100% of the contributions going to charitable causes.
In an effort to contribute to the technology community, we launched our series called CTO Confessions, in a podcast and webinar form, where technology leaders contribute their wisdom to the rest of the tech community. To learn more about CTO Confessions, please visit our page here.
