hedgehog lab – Why Work For Us?
hedgehog lab is a global technology consultancy which focuses on assisting brands and enterprises in achieving their business goals using emerging technologies.
With a global presence of 6 offices in Newcastle Upon Tyne, London, Boston, and India, we’ve built outstanding software and solutions for brands for over a decade.
Our experience in technology, design and product development allows us to build great products. We back this up with exceptional innovation and R&D credentials, helping brands to scale digital solutions and understand where their market is headed.
Our team work alongside major brands such as Home Group, AkzoNobel, B&M, Northumbrian Water, CMC Markets, Santander, Thales, Autodesk, Mitsubishi, Microsoft, Lloyds, Financial Times and EDF Energy.
We are a global leader in mobile and immersive app development. In addition to solutions for platforms like iOS, Android, Python, VR, AR and MR, we also provide AI solutions for brands looking to better engage their customers
Remain focused
We’re not an ‘integrated’, ‘full service’, or ‘digital’ agency - or simply put, a ‘jack of all trades’.
Many companies will try to upsell additional services such as SEO, media planning or a thousand other things to their clients. That’s just not us.
We focus solely on designing & building great post-PC software. It’s what we do best.
Build apps and software people love to use
We aren’t content with building software that is merely useful or good.
We want to build the best products that our customers (and their customers) will love and rave about. We want our passion and skill for technology to be reflected in every project we work on.
Turn customers into fans
We constantly strive to exceed all expectations. For us, customer service isn’t an afterthought - it’s a core part of our business.
Our commitment to exceptional customer service is just one of the factors that gives us an edge in this highly competitive industry.
People are our greatest assets
Although our business is building software, we believe that our people are our most valuable intellectual property.
We believe that if you create a great working environment for people and empower them with the right tools, great products and service will be the natural outcome.
We are always investing and nurturing new talent. At the same time, if you feel you have experience that would be valuable to our team we’d love to hear from you.

Pros
hedgehog lab has a rare bunch of incrdibly talented people there who are focussed on creating great products and being good people. Each member of the team knows their role and ego's are left at the door and they're dealt with when they become an issue. Thanks to this environment, I've felt my skills increase massively since the day I joined here fresh out of university and I'm grateful to have been able to be a part of the journey. Management aren't too concerned of your whereabouts as long as deadlines are met and work doesn't suffer and you're available for your team. I have seen first hand the huge benefit this attitude brings to parents for example or when something unavoidable pops up. If your workload ever becomes a little too much and you bring this up, it gets sorted for you.
Cons
I honestly can't think of a negative about hedgehog lab that would make me feel hesitant to apply to work here. Nowhere you work will ever be "perfect", but hedgehog ticks a LOT of boxes.
Advice to Management
Keep the momentum up on the recent initiative of giving employees a platform to voice thoughts and empowering employees to take matters into their own hands.
