Responsibilities
At Tyba, you will work on a fast evolving product within our small team and together with our developer Tristan, our designer Zuri, our Manager Eiso and occasionally with our back-end developer Parminder located in the US.
Our work atmosphere is that of a startup, casual. Everybody is aware and sometimes involved in the startup different aspects : the sales to the public and to universities, our high-level customer service, the decision making and the product development.

On the technical aspect we use the best tools we find out there to date to develop the product. We work mainly with PHP on the server side, JavaScript using the jQuery library on the client side and MySQL for the database. We might have to use Python or Ruby on the server side in the future.
