X8 has built a team of people with deep experience who have good ideas and the freedom to implement them. You’re not just one member of a team of developers. Your input is valued and you’re able to make an impact on the defense and future security of our nation. It’s nice to work in a company where everyone has earned their experience and credibility and is trusted to do the work that needs to be done. I feel like I have something to contribute and I can make a difference.

I wanted to work with a smart, clever group of people who are humble about it. The company is very employee centric with a lot of opportunity to mold and shape our careers. We have the opportunity to create or develop something new unlike at larger companies where you’re shoehorned to one particular job. We have the flexibility to run with ideas and they support us along the way.
