Choosing and Planning a Career in Software Development Industry - Suceava-ASSIST Software Romania

“Stefan cel Mare University” Suceava invited ASSIST Software to talk about “Choosing and  Planning a Career in Software Development industry in Suceava” and especially about building a career in our company. It is always an honor to talk with their brilliant students about things that we have in common: the passion for software development, dedication in following the right steps for success in business or career.

It is never too soon or too late to start a career planning, and it's not something that we do once and for all. It can start in high school or college, continues when finishing school, when we move forward in life or when we add skills or change the job.

Reflecting on our likes, dislikes, wishes, and wants must take into consideration when planning. The change is a factor in life, everybody changes, the world changes, the business changes. Something that we enjoyed doing two or three years ago may now give us displeasure.

Another step in planning is to develop a roadmap for career success. Can we be successful without setting goals? Yes, for sure but most researches say that goal-setting is the way to even more success. Once we set short time or long time goals it is very important to review and adjust those goals as we are moving forward. Once we accomplish them we need to develop new goals.

Part of career planning is to find training opportunities in local companies, local university as well as online learning programs. 

The software development industry has been on a rise in the last years in Suceava, ASSIST Software gaining more and more attention by having a solid portfolio with many quality projects finished successfully.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is ASSIST Software's development process?  

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

2. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use?  

ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.

3. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app?  

We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product.   

  • A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform)   
  • Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.    
  • Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors).   
  • Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).

4. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?

We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions. 

Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects.  

SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services. 

5. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software?  

We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you.   

  • Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration.   
  • Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise.   
  • Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget.   

Contact us to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each model.
