Good ideas deserve better execution.

Our approach to software engineering comes from a deep, holistic understanding of your problem domain.

We partner with you, we listen like no other, and we find the best avenues to help you grow, innovate and protect yourself from risk.

Domain modelling to user acceptance, data stores to front-end, legacy to cutting-edge, custom everything to off-the-shelf blocks: we confidently cover the entire spectrum of your requirements.

A track record that counts. So you can count on us.

Gluon was created in 2015 by four Partners, each with at least 20 years of experience in software architecture and development, project management, and technology consulting.

Collectively, we have engaged with more than 40 Clients, hundreds of Stakeholders and tens of thousands of Users in industries ranging from financial services to automation and robotics, energy, telecommunications and digital media.

In all cases, we have translated their needs, aspirations and frustrations into tangible and lasting value.

Ask, and you shall be given.

Technologies and trends keep changing. What our Clients expect from us never does.

This is why we only build our software based on first principles: high performance, extensibility and scalability, security, ease of deployment, a superior user experience, and low cost of maintenance when we are no longer around.

We do use all the hot and cool tools available. Yet, nothing beats those warm words from a satisfied Client.

No task too small, no man too far.

If there’s one good thing these testing times have been showing us, it’s that outsourcing to a remote, geographically distributed team can be just as successful as running an office-based, colocated team.

Regardless of scope, size and complexity, all of our Client projects benefit from a balanced mix of senior resources closer to your industry and location, and talented, vetted freelancers from around the world.

Verticals

Financial markets

We have over fifteen years of experience with financial markets companies of any size and across buy and sell-side: investment banks, hedge funds and asset managers, commodity trading houses, brokerages, family offices, and fintech start-ups.

We have built software covering most front and middle-office functions: market data sourcing and enrichment, liquidity aggregation, trade capture, valuation, pre-trade risk and analytics, execution and order management, compliance and reporting.

This has given us a uniquely rich understanding of the technical, quantitative, management and regulatory aspects of technology projects in this space.

We offer value as a boutique provider of financial technology, and consulting services.

Both propositions are backed by our constant focus on researching and prototyping the latest in software technology, data science, and quantitative finance.

Customer-centric platforms

Digital transformation is no longer a buzzword. It is an imperative for any organization to reach, engage, serve, understand their Customers using digital platforms.

We have significant expertise creating complete platforms that simplify and uplift both your Customer-facing and internal functions.

We build back-end architectures, of any size and complexity, that may reinvent parts of your business, perform incremental improvements on the existing…and anything in between.

Perhaps more critically, we deliver compelling User Experiences, grounded on industry-specific User Research and modern Interaction Design principles, across mobile, web, and desktop.

IoT and connected intelligence

The Internet of Things paradigm is revolutionizing the way we live, work and play.

The latest generations of portable and embedded devices can autonomously collect and process information generated by human and machine environments at any scale: personal and domestic, urban, and geographic.

Combined with inexpensive cloud services, IoT technologies open endless scenarios to make every conceivable activity more efficient, productive and enjoyable.

With credentials including one of Europe’s first large-scale banking security automation platforms and cutting-edge industrial chemistry robotics, our Team has significant experience with all key aspects of a modern IoT/automation project: sensor fusion on smartphones and wearable devices, edge computing, real-time processing using rule-based, statistical and ML-based methods, visualization and control dashboards, and more.
