We believe in a human-centered approach to incubating and scaling technologies that tackle real-world problems.
11 years in the making.
We had a dream. We knew there was a better way to run a business. Through passion and compassion, energy and empathy, caring about our employees, customers, and community in equal measure. Our true north lies in our Core Values; "Change the Box," "Live with Passion," and "Focus on Community."
Passionate about evolving technologies and creating solutions that help make workflows easier to manage, we launched BrainGu.
Our objective is to help our customers journey from automation to innovation. Automation lessens the workload on the human operators and end-users. Innovation revolutionizes how they achieve their goals.
Teams need better tooling and processes to get repeatability and scale to their solutions. At BrainGu, we create capabilities that help them succeed. Not everything we create is revolutionary, but everything we make allows someone to "Do it Better" regardless of the specific problem domain. Incremental improvements implemented at the speed of relevancy enable us to evolve the solutions we develop to our customer's changing needs in real-time.
Gu dedicate the time, abilities, and resources needed to focus on their chosen communities, changing them for the better through intention and execution.
The adage “think outside the box” assumes that all previous attempts at solving a problem that weren’t 100% successful are useless and that wholesale change is the only answer. At BrainGu, we believe that every bit of progress toward a solution is valuable. Our approach is to thoroughly evaluate the situation, identify its strengths and weaknesses, and then optimize those strengths to create a path forward.
We believe that separating work from life limits our potential for growth and self-expression. That's why we strive to create an environment that fosters self-actualization and encourages creativity and talent.

Change the Box
Traditionally, the saying is 'think outside the box.' All too often, when approaching the 'impossible,' it is assumed that a current or previously tried approach is entirely useless. We believe that all progress against a difficult outcome is valuable, so we seek to evaluate the situation, maximize its strengths, and minimize its weaknesses.
Embracing the burrito How we signal affirmation at BrainGu
We didn’t have a non-intrusive way to acknowledge a message. If someone were to reply to a comment with 'Got it,' or 'Roger,' or any variation a notification would be sent out to everyone associated with that message, which was quite unnecessary.
Introduction to Being Agile
First, let’s define some things. Agile is not Scrum (or XP, or Kanban). Agile is not JIRA (or Rally, or VersionOne).

My family is my top priority and I love that BrainGu encourages a great work-life balance.
One on One Meeting Best Practices
We expect a lot of our people and put them into high-pressure situations. So it’s key to establish a solid and consistent line of communication with each member. Team members value the time and opportunity to offer thoughts, ask questions, and connect in a non-tasking way.
2021 Internship Program and Philosophy
BrainGu is highly committed to recruiting a diverse and well-rounded cohort of interns and providing them with an immersive and educational employment experience. We want our Gu-interns to share a similar experience to that of our full-time engineers and developers.
