# AI-savvy engineers. Human judgement. > Founded in 2019. We build AI-powered software that matters — and we know when to trust the model, and when not to. ## Our story DevNest was founded in 2019 by a group of engineers who wanted to build software differently — with full-cycle ownership, Agile delivery, and a genuine focus on the long-term value of what we create. We combine expertise in software development with a passion for digital projects. We work with complex, global client portfolios across multiple industries, using an eclectic and well-niched solution stack. But more than anything, we are a people company that builds AI-powered software — engineers who use AI every day and know exactly where human judgement must stay in the loop. ## Our values - **People** — prioritised above all else. Our team and our clients are the reason we exist. - **Accountability** — full ownership of our actions. We say what we do and do what we say. - **Collaboration** — we work as one team with our clients, not as a supplier at arm's length. - **Quality** — correct implementation from the start. We do not ship work we are not proud of. - **Grit** — we finish what we start, including the parts of a project nobody enjoys. ## How we work - **AI-Savvy, Human-Led** — we use AI every day, to build faster and to build AI products of our own. People own the judgement: what to automate, what to verify, what to ship. - **Vibrant Operating System** — a flexible environment where strategic thinking, creativity and humour are all part of the job. - **Nurturing Ownership** — versatility and trusted autonomy for everyone; space to excel on their own terms. - **Building Trust** — respect and transparency are part of our working mantra. We invest in long-term authentic relationships. - **Celebrating Life** — proactive work-life balance through coffee sessions, team gatherings and annual celebrations. - **Driving Success** — complex, global client portfolios and an eclectic, well-niched solution stack. ## Empowering digital businesses We focus on the long-term value of every product we build. Our Agile, full-cycle delivery covers strategy, design, engineering, testing and ongoing support — so your team can stay focused on the business outcomes that matter. We work as cross-functional teams with full ownership of the product direction, or extend your existing team with the senior engineers you need. Either way, the bar for the work we ship is the same. And when you are ready for AI, we help you adopt it safely — integrated into what you already run, grounded in your own data, and engineered to fail soft. ## Company facts - Legal entity: CTI Soft Development SRL, founded 2019. - Headquarters: Cluj-Napoca, Romania.
