Annual releases gave way to two-week sprints years ago, and the platform now handles over 200 million API calls a day. Marblebound Labs employs 700 people across engineering hubs in Berlin and three other locations, building ERP software for mid-market manufacturers. Most engineers work remotely and come into the office one week a quarter for planning.
