About us Just bamtastic people

Vision & Values

We create inspired and innovative digital products that are relevant to people. Today and tomorrow.

Quality

Highest quality is our drive and motivation. We compete to reach our highest level every day, to learn and to get better from day to day. Professionalism and precision are always in focus.

Passion

We do what we love to do and look with pride at the results we achieve. What fascinated us as youngsters is our passion today. We follow it with the same discipline, verve and enthusiasm everyday.

Integrity

We stand by what we say. Our values determine our actions. We do not shy away from discourse and are respectfully honest. We take responsibility and stand up for each other. Integrity is not just a text module in our corporate philosophy - we live it.

THE TEAM

Who we are

After many years of employment, we put our vision of a company into action. Three young men - well, let's say middle-aged - dared to set out into a new world. We founded BAM. A company where freedom, appreciation and positive culture are the basis for success.

Behind the acronym are Christian Bäumer, Miguel Afonso dos Santos and Dennis Meissner. The three of us each have a decade of professional experience. That's a total of 30 years - do the math. Divided by ten, that's three. BAM! The musketeers are already joined by other companions who share our values and vision. Because one thing is clear: with a strong team, you can really let it rip.

But don't be fooled. In the background, Paule the Dog is pulling the strings. The golden retriever has annexed the office and, as the secret boss, is ordering food in raw quantities. Rumor has it that he's been working on a backflip for years, but he won't reveal more than a high five.

Now, let's work some software magic together. ABAMcadabra!

Spirit

What drives us

R-E-S-T-E-C-P!

Freely adapted from Ali G: We respect each other, our partners and the creative process; and expect the same respect in return. At BAM, all differences, ideas and views are heard and valued. Inhumane and discriminatory views are not being tolerated, of course.

Trust and confidence

We place great emphasis on personal responsibility. We hire people who have what it takes and feel comfortable in an autonomous culture. Everyone here takes responsibility for their decisions and is also given the necessary trust to make them without hesitation.

All for one

and one for all. Even though individual responsibility is important to us, we believe in the team. Together we potentiate our skills and create extraordinary solutions. We are a company without hierarchy. Every employee and also our partners have a place and a voice at the round table.

Connecting people

We love all things digital, but nothing beats a human touch. We build solutions that make people's lives easier, better or cooler through design and technology.

Super­powers

We were not bitten by a spider, nor do we belong to a superior alien race. Our superpower is expertise. Specific knowledge that makes us professionals in the fields of frontend and backend development, as well as handling and maintaining server and database systems. Our weapons are HTML, CSS and Javascript using the latest standards and frameworks. To implement server-side applications, we code in PHP and NodeJS.


But the most beautiful code is of little use if you don't turn it into something attractive. From users for users, we create design experiences that are founded on technical expertise and a broad tool set. On the way to your goal, we stay agile like The Flash.

Attention to detail

Team spirit

This is where we work at

In an underground cave, hidden under winding towers, in the abandoned tunnel system of the mines, we face the challenges of the digital world. Well, it's rather a stylish office space in the TZU, centrally located in Oberhauen. But the local mining history still surrounds us. In addition, we are neighbors of the Centro, of various fast-food locations and the appropriate fitness studios to work off the little sins. Alternatively, we play a round of video games - that's eSports, you know.

Of course, you can reach us easily via various highways as well as by public transport. The interior design and the quality of our work equipment is very important to us, because everyone should feel comfortable here and be able to work optimally.

The Arsenal

Our Toolbox

Heroes and adventurers need the right equipment to get where they want to go. So consider the tools listed here as our Power Weapons, which we know inside out. However, we are also happy to learn how to use new tools, especially those that are close to your heart.

Spotify

Sounds like team spirit

Always fresh beats and good tunes. As you know, a positive working atmosphere is important to us. For us, this clearly includes the right music in the workplace.
