Steamclock

Building a studio we want to work at.

Our whole thing is great experiences. Obviously our apps need to provide excellent experiences, but the experience of our clients and our employees is also a core part of making great software.

When teams are supported, listened to, and motivated to keep iterating and improving, great things happen. So that’s what we do.

What's it like working at Steamclock?

Steamclock is a profitable and growing studio in Gastown that crafts excellent apps. Our focus is building great products and having fun doing it. We build products for ourselves - such as our DJ app that refuses to play Nickelback - as well as apps for startups and businesses around the world.

Software is about people.

Allen Pike ensures we do great work.

This ranges from strategy and product management to coordinating design and development. Previously, he was a Software Engineer at Apple. On weekends, he hosts a podcast about silly facts.

Nigel Brooke is an expert at high-performance code and mobile architecture.

He spent 14 years building AAA games, and has since spent 10 more building A+ apps. Like many software engineers, Nigel regularly directs and acts in productions of Shakespeare.

Payvand Gonzalez cares for our office, our books, and our team.

She has a knack for details, keeping our accounts in order and our employees happy. Payvand currently leads the team in terms of tattoo quantity.

Leia Kim keeps us all playing to the same beat.

She is Keeper of the Schedule, Shepherd of the Project, and Asker of Important Questions. It is rumoured that Leia can bench press any other member of the team.

Brady Valentino is a product designer extraordinaire.

He uses his experience working on products of every size to design and iterate great interfaces – and the occasional t-shirt. It is said that Brady can eat the spiciest food of anybody at Steamclock.

Brendan Lensink loves making apps that people love.

He has built iOS apps for a number of startups, giving him an engineering mind and a product heart. He is one of the few Steamclock employees trained in Olympic weightlifting.

Erica Leong puts joy into every pixel.

Her superpower is visual design and illustration, which she uses to add colour and life to our products. Erica has done more escape rooms than any other employee.

Jake Miner builds all kinds of mobile apps.

With experience on both iOS and Android, Jake is up to any task. Without a doubt, he is the office’s most dangerous Towerfall player.

Jamie Howden ensures we ship with quality.

With her discerning eye for detail, Jamie regularly breaks the things we build – and then ensures their resilience. She is also the team's resident cosplay expert.

Jenn Cooper is an accomplished builder.

Her skills on iOS, Android, and the web combine with her leadership experience to fuel any project plan. She is the only Steamclock employee with bears in her yard.

Jeremy Chiang develops great apps.

His breadth of skills and commitment to learning have fuelled his work shipping dozens of mobile apps. Jeremy is by far Steamclock’s most accomplished swordsman.

Jian Liew builds excellent Android apps.

A disciple of continual improvement, Jian is always working to build excellent software. Rumour is, he is Steamclock's premier pho aficionado.

Shayla Sawchenko builds very nice Android apps.

While her iOS skills are sharp, her heart lies with Android. Shayla is the team's most skilled dicemaker.
