Ignacio Barrameda - Graduate Support Engineer

I've been with Formpipe for five months, and my journey has been shaped by the company's welcoming and supportive management team. From meeting senior executives on my first day which left a lasting impression, to the intensive two-week training period that gave me the necessary skills and confidence to fulfil my responsibilities. What attracted me to Formpipe was the excellent culture and philosophy, while offering remote working options.

During my onboarding, I had Noemaan Hussain as my mentor who offered continuous support and guidance throughout, which helped me adapt to the new working environment. The process clearly defined roles and responsibilities, setting the right expectations from the beginning. I was pleased with the support from my team members and supervisors.

Formpipe's commitment to employee development is evident through the opportunities for professional growth, including various courses. Collaborating with colleagues from other departments has added value to my experience, and visiting the amazing Cambridge office is always exciting.
