Merry Christmas. May your home be filled with warmth, light, laughter, and peace. Wishing you good health, true friends, cozy moments, and many kind gifts from life ahead. Take care of yourselves and your loved ones. Wishing you a bright and joyful holiday season.

Congratulations to our Frontend Developer on reaching 3 years with abz.agency This year, he earned the role of project Frontend Lead through dedication and hard work. Of course, not everything came easy on the first try. But we've seen what consistent self-improvement and openness to learning can achieve. Colleagues describe him as a skilled professional who's always ready to help when needed. Whether it's reviewing code, offering guidance, giving feedback, or allowing the team to push through to results, he's consistently there. That takes a serious set of soft skills. At abz.agency, we value that, and it’s precisely what opens doors for career growth. Today, we want to thank our Frontend developer for his work and wish him continued positivity, the ability to inspire the team, and genuine enjoyment in everything he does.

Two of our team members recently celebrated their weddings. Sometimes work life brings warm moments worth sharing - and this is one of them. We're honored to be part of our colleagues' lives during such meaningful milestones. These moments remind us that behind every task, team result, and project, there are real people with feelings, dreams, and unique stories. At abz.agency, we grow together, support each other, and celebrate not only professional achievements but personal ones too. To congratulate our team members on this important life chapter, the company prepared special gifts - an excursion in sunny Egypt for our Sales Manager and a cozy tent for future adventures for our Backend Developer. We wish them both a life together filled with joyful moments, mutual understanding, and warmth. May each day bring bright experiences, inspiration, and strength to reach new heights - both in life and in work.

Congratulations to our two designers on their anniversaries at abz.agency: - Designer – 3 years - Designer – 2 years Today we're congratulating two of our designers who've been with us for 2 and 3 years. This is just the beginning of their journey in the world of design, but we're confident they'll keep crushing it – and we're here to support them every step of the way. At abz.agency, we've built deep expertise in UI/UX design, and we love sharing it with our team. What makes the difference is the strong communication between colleagues – it allows everyone to exchange insights, research findings, and best practices. Our designers never stop learning. They always stay on top of the latest trends, tools, and technologies to bring the most relevant solutions for every project. Collaboration, continuous knowledge sharing, adherence to our design standards, and applying best practices – that's what enables us to deliver top-tier results on tasks of any complexity. From crafting logos and brand identities to finding the most effective design solutions through A/B testing and maintaining large-scale design systems on multi-year projects. We wish our designers endless inspiration, an insatiable hunger to expand their skills, and the same unstoppable energy they bring to every new project. Thank you for your incredible work.

Two of our developers are celebrating their work anniversaries at abz.agency: - Frontend Developer - 2 years - Frontend Developer - 3 years Both have grown into Tech Leads on their projects - a path full of challenges and ongoing self-improvement. That's how a systematic approach works. Our guys don't chase quick wins, rush through tons of theory in a day, or collect course certificates just to check boxes. Instead, they take small steps every single day: one article, one book chapter, one practical task at a time. Over time, these small steps build a solid foundation, transforming knowledge into real expertise. We're proud of how our team members grow within the company, because when they grow, abz.agency grows with them. We wish these guys to keep their positive mindset and find joy in every new challenge they take on.

8 November 2025, we celebrate the 20th of abz.agency. How did it happen?! 20 years ago, the idea arose to create a company that would do what others were unable to do. Without investors, without investments, was chosen the turtle strategy (long game) and reinvestment. A strategy was chosen for company employees to grow, train, and continuously develop them. A PDP (Personal Development Plan) program and an Onboarding (Company Bootcamp) program were developed. This approach allows us to grow guys who then work for the company for many years. The longest-serving employee has been with the company for 16 years. This allows the company to retain expertise within the team. For our clients, we do what others simply won't touch. Quite a few companies (no offense) do something mediocre and simple. But when the task goes beyond the usual scope, other companies can't handle it. Our company is focused on developing complex custom solutions from the outset. The company's first project was not a small website; we developed a Business Management System (6800 hours) with launch, implementation, and next development over several years. Then came projects lasting several years. Currently, we have clients with whom we have been working for over 10 years. But the main feature of the company is its regulations (rules, principles, restrictions, requirements, postulates, etc.). Everyone in the company knows the regulations and works as a single organism using a single conceptual framework. Our super-secret ingredient for success is the Project Manager Regulation. It allows customers to work with us faster and easier than with any GPT, and at the same time, we provide real feedback by telling the truth and working honestly. Project Manager is a very powerful position in our company, covering many areas: Executive Manager, Business Analyst, Product Manager, Product Owner, Team Leader, Project Manager. This allows our clients to receive tremendous UX and Swiss watch precision when working with our company, along with regulatory compliance. What's next? Fast isn't someone who runs fast, but someone who doesn't stop. Step by step, brick by brick, we grow and develop. More to come.

Happy Halloween 🎃 Boooooo 👻💀👻💀👻💀👻💀👻💀👻💀

Celebrating 3 years of our Lead BDM at abz.agency Three years ago, she joined the company as an office manager. From day one, she approached her work with energy, quickly mastered new responsibilities, and proved that her potential went far beyond her initial role. Step by step, she grew into the Lead BDM she is today, now leading a team of 4 people across 3 countries. Her story shows something important: in an environment that values initiative and creates space for growth, anyone can unlock their potential and achieve a high level of professionalism in their field. We wish our Lead BDM continued energy and determination, plenty of reasons to smile, a positive outlook, and the courage to set and achieve ever more ambitious goals.

Celebrating 3 years with our QA Specialist at abz.agency Three years ago, like everyone joining our team, this QA specialist began her journey with our Company Bootcamp. Those were her first, yet confident steps into IT. Today, she's a skilled professional whom colleagues turn to for advice and can always count on for help and support. Her story proves that a structured approach and consistent self-learning truly pay off. Being disciplined in self-improvement isn't easy, but it's incredibly rewarding to look back and see how much you've achieved through your own hard work. We wish our QA specialist to keep that positive energy, smile, and lightness, while continuing to move forward in her career – exploring new horizons and setting increasingly ambitious goals.

abz.agency's merch collection now includes sports sets To keep your mind sharp, your body needs energy too. Sports are part of our company culture, which is why abz.agency offices feature pull-up bars, X-boards, and massagers. Many of our team members are into sports - some run in the mornings, others play football, hit the gym for strength training, or choose yoga and dance. We recently ran a team poll, and their collective input inspired the idea for these sports sets. The result? A practical kit that's useful both in and out of the gym: a sports bag, a towel, and a shaker bottle. The new merch comes in our signature brand colors. At abz.agency, we believe that taking care of your body is just as important as developing your skills. When you feel good physically, you work better mentally.

Our Designer is celebrating 2 years at abz.agency. Over these two years, he's been part of countless projects, creating solutions that required iteration and refinement to meet client’s expectations. His attention to detail, thoughtful UX logic, harmonious UI elements, and systematic approach to design systems have resulted in more functional and effective products. Thank you for your professionalism, for balancing visual aesthetics with practicality, and for building the design systems, prototypes, and mockups that make our projects successful and distinctive. We wish you even more exciting challenges ahead, rapid growth, creative inspiration, and the energy to bring new ideas to life. If you want to develop your skills, create innovative solutions, and work on interesting projects - send your CV to hr@abz.agency.

At work, it's not just about being productive and delivering quality results, it's also about knowing when to take a break. Our team can always use the various massagers available in all our meeting rooms. One of these is the Shiatsu neck and shoulder massager, which helps relax and relieve tension in the neck and upper back area. Now, these massagers aren't just available in all our offices, they've also become part of our work anniversary merch gift packages for team members. This is a great complement to our annual financial bonuses outlined in our company regulations: 1 year - $100; 2 years - $200; 3 years - $300; 4 years - $400; 5 years - $500. For those who have been with us for over 5 years - $500 plus a valuable gift worth up to $500 (for PM team members). And this is just one part of the company bonuses. At abz.agency, we continuously invest in our team's comfort, regularly adding new benefits and improving our offices. Because we believe that when people feel good, they do their best work.

Congratulations to two of our team members on their work anniversaries at abz.agency: - Frontend Developer - 2 years - Frontend Developer - 1 year They joined the company not too long ago, but have already made significant progress in their personal development journey. They started by learning our processes and handling straightforward tasks, gradually immersing themselves in our workflows. Today, they confidently handle their responsibilities, take on new challenges, and contribute to exciting projects. Thank you for your dedication and contribution to the company! We wish you continued growth through your PDPs, developing both hard and soft skills that are equally important in our work. May your energy and new knowledge help you confidently advance in your career. If you're passionate about continuous growth and development, send your CV to hr@abz.agency.

We want to create a short company video for our clients and candidates. Here's our first draft. Don't judge us too harshly - video production isn't exactly our specialty 😀 We are a software development company. Our core business is developing complex and unique solutions based on web applications, browser extensions, mobile apps, and high-performance, high-load systems.

Two of our team members are celebrating their work anniversary at abz.agency: - Frontend Developer 3 years - Backend Developer 2 years They joined us a few years ago and have grown in their confidence and professional skills since then. Thanks to our Frontend developer, our UIs are visually appealing, and our UX is seamless, which doesn't leave users wondering where to click. Our Backend developer has stepped up for the team countless times, taking on tech lead responsibilities and making crucial architectural decisions for our projects. Thank you both for your excellent, responsible, and collaborative work. We wish you continued growth through your PDPs and even more challenging project tasks that inspire you to dive deeper, learn new things, and unlock more possibilities. Want to work at a company where people actively grow and develop? Send your CV to hr@abz.agency.

We've officially received the "Strongest in Estonia 2025" certificate from Creditinfo with an AA (Very Good) rating. This means our company demonstrates high financial stability, transparency, and an impeccable business reputation. We continue to work hard and grow ;)

Two of our guys are celebrating their work anniversary at abz.agency: - Backend Developer - 2 years - Fullstack Developer - 2 years Our Fullstack developer is the kind of person who quietly tackles complex tasks, keeps the entire project architecture in his mind, and is always ready to dive into yet another unfamiliar library. Our Backend developer joined us as a junior specialist and has grown tremendously over the past two years. Today, he can assess tasks holistically, execute them thoughtfully, and always considers the real value he brings. These guys already know a lot, but they keep learning every single day. And that's probably their greatest superpower. Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and willingness to grow. May the road ahead bring even more exciting opportunities to level up your skills. If you're also looking for a place where growth is the focus - reach out to us at hr@abz.agency. We are hiring.

When working with clients and candidates, every detail matters - including the quality of sound on calls. We’ve taken care of that by equipping our HR and Sales teams with professional Shure MV7+ studio microphones. This means: - Clear, high-quality audio during calls - Noise isolation and background sound suppression - No more “Sorry, could you repeat that?” Now, every call is elevated to a new level, free from echo, noise, or disruptions. At abz.agency, we understand that even the smallest details can impact results. That’s why we focus not only on development quality and team collaboration but also on the things that bring everyday comfort - from ergonomic workspaces to superior call audio. If you want to join a company that values comfort and a thoughtful approach to work, send your resume to hr@abz.agency.

Six years ago, she joined abz.agency as a QA beginner with little experience at the time, but she had a strong desire to grow, diving deeper into learning through PDP. Even back then, it was clear; she had a passion for structure, attention to detail, and was asking the right questions about functionality. Since then, her expertise has grown exponentially, while her drive to develop has remained unwavering. A lot has been achieved over these six years; earning multiple individual bonuses for proactivity on projects, experiencing noticeable professional, personal, and financial growth. One highlight along the way was purchasing her own car. All of these accomplishments prove one thing: at abz.agency, it's truly possible to earn with your mind. We wish her the courage to take on new challenges and always grab opportunities to become even better. May work bring joy, and may every new project lead to new successes. We value long-term collaboration. Are you looking for the same opportunities for yourself? Write to hr@abz.agency to learn about open vacancies.

We’re celebrating the work anniversary of three team members at abz.agency: - Frontend Developer - 1 year - QA specialist - 1 year - Frontend Developer - 1 year It feels like they just joined our team - went through bootcamp, learned new processes, explored our projects, kept learning, and sometimes felt nervous… And today marks one year of them being part of our crew. Ahead lie new challenges, skill upgrades, growth through their PDPs, learning new technologies, and career progress. We wish them continuous development, confidence in taking on increasingly complex tasks, and enjoyment of the process and results of their work. Our team is always open to those who strive for constant growth and learning. If this sounds like you, send your resume to hr@abz.agency.

Let’s add a little color and atmosphere to our lofts ;) All our offices just got an upgrade - vibrant LED lighting! It brings a splash of brightness to gloomy days and helps create a fresh vibe in the workspace every day. The new lights have already been installed in our K1–K5 offices (Kyiv, Ukraine) and T2 (Estonia). The rest of the offices are next in line. Would you like to work in an atmosphere like this? Reach out to our HR team at hr@abz.agency. We are hiring.

Fullstack celebrates 5 years at abz.agency If someone asked for a quick timeline of this guy’s journey, it would look something like this: Frontend Developer (React, Vue) => Backend Developer (Node) => React Native Developer => bought a car => Fullstack Developer => became a dad => DevOps engineer. Quite the ride, right? Behind all these milestones lies a lot of hard work, countless fixes, fuckups, hundreds of hours spent digging through tons of information, and a million small wins that led to big goals. It’s such a joy to realize we’ve been walking this path together. We hope there are many more shared stories ahead, the ones we’ll fondly recall over coffee and achievements we’ll be proud of. Let every new challenge you take on come with ease. May your home remain a place of support and peace, and your work bring challenges that inspire and keep you engaged. At abz.agency, those who are hungry to grow always find the space and support to do so. Sounds like you? Reach out at hr@abz.agency, send us your CV - we’re looking for talent.

Everyone has their own tools. For those who write code, design interfaces, or work in testing, it’s a MacBook and software. For those who communicate with people - it’s their voice. This tool also requires tuning and upgrades. Finding the right words and connecting with people is a skill. So, we decided it’s time to level up not just our knowledge, but also our voices. Because developing new skills isn’t always about new frameworks, books and reports. Sometimes it’s about breathing, pacing, and pausing. And that helps not only on calls but in life, too. A nice bonus, isn’t it? At abz.agency, we believe in growing through practice, mistakes, and awkward exercises. That’s why we invested $2400 in diction and public speaking courses for our HR and Sales teams. Because we want important things to sound the way they deserve. Investing in growth is always a good idea. Want to grow with us? Reach out at hr@abz.agency - we’ve got open vacancies.

Congratulations to our three guys on their anniversary at abz.agency - Backend developer - 1 year - QA specialist - 2 years - Frontend developer - 2 years A big thank you to our Backend developer for building stable APIs and well-thought-out architecture under the hood, even though it’s not visible on the surface, it powers everything we do. To our QA specialist – for your sharp instinct to spot bugs before anyone even reports “something’s not working.” And to our Frontend developer – thanks for making sure that “responsive design” is not just a buzzword but a reality on every screen. You guys are an essential part of our team. Congratulations, we are so proud of you. Way to go! May every project bring valuable experience, every task be exciting, and may the team inspire you to grow and achieve new goals. If you want to work on interesting projects and level up your skills, send your CV to hr@abz.agency.

Lead Designer is celebrating 15 years with the company This guy’s been with abz.agency since the days of glossy logos, gradient buttons, and when “responsive design” sounded like wizardry. Over the past 15 years, we’ve been through a lot together: life changes, industry shifts, company growth and we’ve designed for all kinds of clients. And even after all this time, there’s still more to learn and room to grow. And that’s awesome. Today, we’re congratulating not just a designer, but a Lead, someone who mentors new team members, shares deep expertise in both UX and UI (and makes sure everyone knows they’re not the same thing), helps shape our design regulations, and leads our internal abz.agency project - our Figma plugin. There is a lot more planned ahead. Thank you for your responsiveness and willingness to put your heart into your work, for your ability to keep the balance between “looks good” and “works well”. We are proud to have such people in our team. Would you like to join us? We don't promise it will be easy. But it will be interesting, meaningful, and with great people around. Email hr@abz.agency to learn more about open positions.

Time to upgrade our hardware :) What could be better for tech guys?! We’ve just stocked up on new MacBook Pros powered by the M3 Pro chip with 32GB of RAM, paired with crisp 27-inch LG UHD 4K monitors. At abz.agency, we always strive to equip our team with top-tier hardware to ensure a smooth workflow and high productivity on every project. Sounds great? Drop us a line at hr@abz.agency and join the team!

Congratulations to our PM Assistant on her 2 years with abz.agency! She came to us with a bit of QA experience - and a big desire to grow into a true professional. She didn’t promise to “learn it all in a week,” and didn’t ask for a fast-track promotion. She simply started learning and working. Systematically. Persistently. Genuinely. This is exactly the kind of story where passion for what you do and the willingness to put in the work every single day lead to real results. At abz.agency, we believe: if someone is eager to grow, they’ll find everything they need here to make it happen, no matter where they start. Experience is secondary. What truly counts is your mindset. We’re always here - whether you need to level up your skills, try a new role, or take that first step toward something that once used to feel too intimidating. Two years later, we’re proud to congratulate our colleague, now a PM Assistant. We wish her continued growth toward new challenges, new knowledge, and exciting projects ahead. Let this be just the beginning of our bright journey together. And if you’re reading this and thinking, “I wish I had a career turn like that…” - reach out to our HR team at hr@abz.agency to learn about open positions. Who knows, maybe one day we’ll be writing a post about your journey at abz.agency.

Let’s start the week with some pleasant news. At abz.agency, we stick to one simple principle: create the most comfortable environment for our team, so they can focus on what really matters - their work. No need to worry about what’s for lunch, where to grab a coffee, or how to stretch out after hours behind a MacBook. It’s no secret that neck and back pain is a common struggle in the tech world due to sedentary work. That’s why we’ve just upgraded all 8 of our offices with new massage gear: - Percussion handheld massagers - Neck and shoulder zone massagers - Full-body BLACKROLL kits We encourage everyone to take short breaks throughout the day - to stretch, reset, and give both body and eyes a rest. With this kind of setup, work becomes not just easier, but genuinely enjoyable. Now, alongside neck massagers, massage chairs, and pull-up bars, our offices have even more perks to help you recharge and get back into the flow. Want to work at a company that actually cares about your comfort? Reach out to us at hr@abz.agency - we’re currently hiring and would love to hear from you.

Three of our teammates are celebrating their work anniversaries - Backend Developer – 1 year - Frontend Developer – 2 years - Backend Developer – 2 years At abz.agency, we specialize in custom web development, tackling high-load and peak-load projects with confidence. Our expertise spans browser extensions and mobile app development for both iOS and Android. Each of our developers has carved out their own unique path, exploring different areas of expertise along the way. One thing’s for sure though – no one stands still here. Our team is constantly learning new technologies, driven by both project needs and personal growth goals. For instance, PHP developers who want to broaden their horizons can dive into DevOps, explore Node.js or Vue.js, and that’s just the beginning. Growth works both ways here, and we’re always excited to support anyone eager to push their limits. We wish our teammates continued success with exciting new projects, steady growth of both their hard and soft skills, and many more anniversaries with us ahead! If you’re looking to grow in a strong, dynamic team while working on challenging, technically demanding projects, we’d love to hear from you. Send your resume to hr@abz.agency.

Happy Easter! On this spring holiday, the air seems cleaner, the sun shines brighter, and the heart is filled with warmth. It is a great reason to relax, spend time with our families, and gather our thoughts for further work on projects. In the fast-paced world of IT, sometimes it's nice to pause for a moment to take time for traditions and simple pleasures. Such moments are energizing and positive, which is important for everyone’s productivity. May the bright holiday of Easter bring warmth to your homes, faith in goodness to your hearts, and new ideas to your minds. Let it be a moment for your inner “update” - a reset from everyday routine and a starting point for new big goals. If you have caught yourself thinking of joining a new team, where ideas are valued and development is encouraged, send your resume to hr@abz.agency. We are hiring!

Our English teacher celebrates 7 years at abz.agency! We’ve all had that “I’ll start learning English on Monday” moment. But at abz.agency, it’s no longer about promises — it’s about steady, real progress. After finishing our Company Bootcamp, everyone joins English lessons twice a week, in small groups of just two people. For 7 years now, our amazing teacher has been helping the team level up their skills, telling the difference between “fun” and “funny,” and, most importantly, learning not to fear mistakes. Thanks to her, English is no longer something separate from our work. PRDs, client calls, and project planning are all done in English, with no language barriers and full confidence that we’ll be understood. Thank you for your patience when someone still says “I has” after the hundredth time. For your sense of humor. For every perfectly timed “you can do it!” We’re so lucky to have you. Congratulations — and we’re excited to keep learning with you, because you make it feel easy. If the idea of improving your English alongside your teammates sounds appealing, it might be the perfect time to send your CV to hr@abz.agency. We’re hiring.

Our company is growing fast: we’re launching new projects and scaling the ones we already have. That’s why we’re looking for talented professionals who want to join the team and contribute to building innovative, high-tech solutions. We offer the opportunity to work with modern technologies, continuous growth tailored to your goals (via a Personal Development Plan), and a comfortable work environment with Apple equipment and a cozy atmosphere. Our relaxation area is equipped with massage chairs and neck massagers — everything to help the team recharge during the day. The kitchen is always stocked with free, ready-to-eat breakfasts and lunches, a variety of teas, coffee, fruits, sweets, and other tasty treats. All of this is available to every new team member from day one. Right now, we’re especially focused on expanding our team in the new V1 office in Vilnius, Lithuania, and we’re excited to welcome driven individuals who want to grow with us. Current open positions: - PHP Developer - iOS Developer - DevOps Engineer - QA Engineer - Frontend Developer - Creative Graphic Designer - Web designer (Figma) - IT Sales Manager - IT Lead Generation Specialist In addition to Vilnius, we’re also hiring in Tallinn (Estonia) and Kyiv (Ukraine). If you’re interested in any of the roles above, send your CV to hr@abz.agency — we’d love to hear from you!

Congratulations to our 3 QA specialists. One of them is celebrating 4 years with the Ukrainian team, and two others are marking 3 years and 2 years working in the Tallinn office. In IT projects, the importance of testing is sometimes underestimated, but this definitely doesn't apply to abz.agency. Each of our projects has at least 2 QA specialists, mandatory self-testing is implemented, and the testing process is clearly defined at each stage of project development. For all QA, it's important not just to know the basics of testing, but to constantly go into the details and specifics of the work, to keep focused and not lose alertness. At abz.agency, we create an environment where our team members grow, learn new tools, and get deeper into automation, UI/UX testing, mobile application and browser extension testing, and performance testing. Everyone can choose their own development path and keep learning, even after 2, 3, 5, or more years at the company. To the colleagues celebrating their anniversaries, we want to wish you continued interest in your work, attention to detail, and a drive for improvement. May every new project bring complex tasks and opportunities to develop your skills. Our team has positions open for new specialists in our Lithuanian office (V1). We are also actively hiring for the company's Kyiv and Estonian offices. To send your CV and find out details about the working with us, please email hr@abz.agency

Two years ago, our BDM brought a little black ball of fur into the office. Management immediately approved all the necessary veterinary care. We even made small openings in the office walls so the cat could move freely when the doors were closed. We named the cat Gaika - after the nut that goes on the bolt, she's like the Gadget Hackwrench character from the “Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers” cartoon. She totally runs the place. 😸🔩 Our beloved cat is allowed to do anything. She’s scratched up all the leather sofas and chairs — but we love her all the same. She's truly the soul of our company. Gaika became the queen of the office. She greets everyone who walks in and sees them off at the end of the day. During work hours, she either helps the team focus or distracts them with playtime. Sometimes she curls up and naps under a monitor.

Today, we celebrate two years of hard work in the company for one of our remarkable Project Managers. She originally joined as a QA specialist, driven by a strong desire to grow. During her interview, she highlighted her background in management, having earned a degree in the field. Six months in, she became increasingly interested in the role of a Project Manager (PM). However, stepping into a leadership position requires more than just ambition — it demands extensive knowledge and expertise. To pave the way, we developed a PDP (Personal Development Plan), focusing on both management (from leadership fundamentals to negotiation skills) and technical knowledge (from UI/UX principles to backend development standards). After another six months of continuous learning, she earned the title of PM Assistant. PM Assistant is a transitional role between an individual contributor and a manager. At this stage, both soft and hard skills were put to the test. More hands-on experience, increased responsibility, deeper engagement with the PDP, and a growing stack of books to study — it was a period of intense development. Becoming a PM isn’t just about wanting it — it’s a true “samurai’s path.” A journey of constant learning that continues to this day. After two years of relentless effort, she officially stepped into the role of PM. But this is just the beginning… Do you have career growth ambitions too? We’d love to help you achieve them together. Send your CV to hr@abz.agency to explore our open positions!

The launch of abz.agency in Estonia started with just a couple of people and a major renovation of our first office, T1, in Tallinn. So, what’s changed in 2.5 years? At first, we were finding our footing. Then, the team started growing rapidly. Some colleagues relocated to T1 from our Kyiv offices, while we actively hired local specialists. As the space filled up, we found, renovated, and opened a second office, T2, in the city center. Recently, we decided to refresh T1 and add some bold accents. Last week, we completed a light renovation. The ceiling got a facelift with painted frames and new white panels, brightening up the space. The walls weren’t left out either — we put up new posters, including an epic Witcher print, while a Deadpool water gun adds a playful touch.

This week we are celebrating anniversary for several team members: - QA specialist - Frontend developer - Backend developer At abz.agency, we often say that one year with us feels like two years of growth elsewhere — and our team agrees. But why is that? It all begins with onboarding. Every new candidate starts with a comprehensive technical program that blends theory with hands-on practice across a variety of challenges. This solid foundation not only sharpens skills from the very start but also helps set clear goals for future growth. Once onboarding is complete, the real momentum kicks in. We prepare a Personal Development Plan for each team member, built around one core principle: consistency. A little progress every day — whether it’s reading an article, finishing a book chapter, or solving a task — quickly adds up. Sure, there are days when motivation dips, but that’s where the team supports each other, making sure no one loses their drive. With this approach, the results are impossible to miss. The team members we’re celebrating today still have plenty of professional challenges ahead — this is just the beginning of their journey. But even now, looking back, the growth is undeniable: their skillsets have expanded, their goals have become more ambitious, and their confidence has soared. It’s exciting to walk this path together. Want to experience the same growth? Send your CV to hr@abz.agency — we’re hiring in Estonia, Lithuania, and Ukraine.

Love what you do, and do what you love — this way, every day will feel special. ❤️ At first glance, Valentine’s Day might seem unrelated to work. But if you think about it, this day isn’t just about romance. It’s also about passion for what you do, the excitement of creating something meaningful with your team, and the appreciation for yourself — because without that, nothing else truly matters. There’s something incredible about knowing that your work isn’t just about making a profit, but first and foremost, about making you happy. At abz.agency, we emphasize the importance of this feeling every day — through inspiring books, the little details in our work that bring joy, and, today, these adorable teddy bears that have found their way to our team members. May they serve as a reminder that true happiness lies in doing what you love, enjoying the process, and sharing that passion with the world. We’re looking for like-minded people who share this mindset and want to be on the same page with our team. If that sounds like you, send your CV to hr@abz.agency, and our HR team will provide details on current open positions.

What does it take to reach your most ambitious goals? Roll up your sleeves and give it your all. At abz.agency, there’s simply no other way. One of our developers has proven that this approach works. He joined us as a junior specialist. It took more than one attempt to get into our Bootcamp. Looking back, he describes his onboarding experience like this: “Bootcamp was tough for me. I had never worked so many hours a day or with such intensity before. But my desire to land this job was stronger than the urge to rest or take time for myself. It’s all about fair exchange - if you want to gain something, you have to give something in return.” Today, he is a Tech Lead on one of our projects. In nearly three years, he went through several maximum salary reviews, with his pay increasing by 5.5 times. When he first joined Bootcamp, his goal was financial stability. By the end of it, his ambitions had grown, and we knew exactly how to achieve them together. From day one, our HR team makes it clear: it won’t be easy. Why? Because to be the best, you have to do more than the average. Everyone walks their own path, but we’re always heading in the same direction as those striving for professionalism. At abz.agency, we provide all the resources needed for growth. If you’re ready to push yourself, invest your time, and overcome challenges, send your resume to hr@abz.agency. Who knows? Maybe together, we’ll write your success story.

6 years in the company – from PHP developer to Project Manager. His journey began in the Kyiv office of abz.agency. Over three years ago, with the company’s support, he relocated to Estonia and has been successfully leading a team from the Tallinn office ever since. He’s seen it all - tight deadlines, last-minute ASAP tasks, teammates in need of support (or sometimes a gentle kick in the rear) to take action. These challenges have become a natural part of his work, shaping him as a leader. Was it easy? Of course not. And it still isn’t - because he keeps pushing himself every day, learning, evolving, and improving. He’s the kind of person who, when setting a goal, doesn’t hesitate - he just makes it happen. Project Managers, in particular, tend to explore new hobbies, shifting gears once they’ve mastered one. His latest passion for DJing didn’t go unnoticed, so for his anniversary, we surprised him with a DJ controller. Hobbies fuel creativity and energy, keeping the momentum going, inspiring the team, and driving projects forward. We hope that never changes! Does this mindset resonate with you? If you’re looking to grow in a strong team, send your resume to hr@abz.agency, we’ve got open positions waiting for you!

Not enough time? Just read Schwarzenegger’s book. “Eat a little quicker, hit the brakes on your commute a little less, and sleep a little faster and you’ll have found the hours you need. So don’t tell me you don’t have time to train, or to study, or to write, or to network, or to do whatever you need to do to achieve your vision.” - “Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life” book by Arnold Schwarzenegger. At our company, reading isn’t just a personal hobby - it’s part of our shared culture. Our team draws inspiration from the ideas, stories, and heroes that help us grow, move forward, and discover fresh solutions. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s “Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life” is no exception. This book is on our must-read list for everyone here. Arnold, a guy from an ordinary family, set himself an ambitious goal and, against all odds, achieved it - and then went on to accomplish even more. In his book, he shares how he got started, faced setbacks, and dealt with failures. There were lucky breaks, yes, but more importantly, there was relentless effort - he kept trying, over and over again. When new team members join, they all go through an intensive Company Bootcamp. It’s challenging, and at some point, many feel like giving up - exhausted, stuck, or convinced a task is impossible. We’ve all been there. In moments like these, all it takes is locking eyes with Arnold on one of the posters we’ve placed in all eight of our offices. The words from his book come to mind, giving strength and self-belief. Mountains don’t move on their own - we move them. Bit by bit, together. If you share our belief that “impossible” is just a word - not a fact - join us. Sometimes all it takes is finding the right motivation and giving it your best shot. We have open positions in Estonia, Lithuania, and Ukraine. For more details, write us an email at hr@abz.agency.

Today we celebrate the anniversary of our Lead PM - 5 years with abz.agency. As the saying goes, everyone loves a good story, and this one is worth telling. He joined the company as a Junior Lead Generation Manager, hitting the ground running and quickly proving his potential. Before long, he stepped into the role of Sales Manager, and later, Lead Sales Manager. When the opportunity arose to try his hand at being PM, he didn’t hesitate to take it. It turns out that decision was spot on. Now, as Lead PM, he’s not only managing exciting projects but also contributing to the project’s strategic growth. No challenge is too big for him. His strong sales background gives him a unique perspective, enabling him to see projects beyond the technical scope and focus on delivering value. Despite holding the Lead PM title, he remains grounded and approachable. He communicates in a way that makes everyone feel like an essential part of the team. Whether it’s sharing a piece of practical advice, offering support during tough times, or cracking a joke to ease the workload, he knows how to strike a balance between being a leader and fostering a sense of camaraderie. We wish our Lead PM continued success with innovative projects, exciting challenges, and satisfied clients. May your career continue to grow, and your passion for what you do grow even stronger. We hope to celebrate many more anniversaries together at abz.agency! By the way, you have the chance to join this Lead PM’s team!
