Our Team
Our UofG Life App team is a multidisciplinary team which was brought together to provide a broad set of skills to support this modern digital product.
Team structure and working practices
It was important to us when we set up the UofG Life App team, that we were aligned with the latest approaches and standards in app development.
We work as part of a multi-disciplinary Agile team. This means that we are a group of people with multiple skillsets that collaborate continuously to iteratively develop our app and ourselves!
We employ Agile practices, including daily stand-ups, working in short sprints, continuously releasing and testing software to make sure our product is the best it can be. Find out more about Agile in the Modern Ways of Working website.
Our approach to development is based on best practice models of User Research, Digital Delivery and Service Design.
