86 PEOPLE. ONE ENGINEERING CULTURE.
ORBITAL GRID is an independent software engineering company. We design and build digital systems that help ambitious companies move faster, operate smarter, and scale without limits.
OUR STORY
ORBITAL GRID was founded in Seattle in 2016 by a small group of software engineers and product designers who wanted to create a better alternative to traditional technology consulting.
They'd seen too many companies struggle with agencies that delivered code without understanding the business, or consultancies that produced slide decks without building anything real.
The vision was simple: bring strategy, design, and engineering together under one roof. Build systems that actually work. Take ownership of outcomes, not just deliverables.
Ten years later, that vision has grown into a company of 86 people across four locations, serving clients in 17 countries. The approach hasn't changed — we still believe that the best software comes from teams that understand the business, care about the craft, and take responsibility for the results.
OUR MISSION
We design and engineer digital systems that help ambitious companies move faster, operate smarter, and scale without limits.
OUR VALUES
Outcomes Over Output
We measure success by the results our systems produce, not the code we write. Every decision starts with the business outcome.
Partnership, Not Vendor
We work as an extension of your team. We share your goals, understand your constraints, and take ownership of the outcome.
Thoughtful Over Fast
We take time to understand the problem before jumping to solutions. Good engineering starts with good thinking.
Honest & Direct
We tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. Transparency builds trust and leads to better outcomes.

Distributed teamCULTURE
We've built a culture around thoughtful engineering, honest communication, and genuine care for the work. Our team is made up of people who take pride in building systems that work — and who understand that good software is about more than just code.
We value depth over speed, substance over style, and outcomes over output. We hire people who are good at what they do, but more importantly, who are good to work with. Collaboration, curiosity, and craftsmanship are what make this team work.
We're distributed by design, with people working from Seattle, Boston, Toronto, and locations around the world. We invest heavily in communication, documentation, and async collaboration — because that's how distributed teams actually work well.
