Softarex’s Approach to Software Engineering

At Softarex, the software development process is based on the ISO/IEC 25000 source code quality series of standards, and secure source code development methods, including HIPAA, SOC2, GDPR, ISO 27001.

To meet the requirements of the ISO/IEC 25000 series source code quality standards and the CISQ concept, we adhere to the requirements and rules for developed source code. These are defined by a set of characteristics that a software product should have at the source code implementation level.

According to the CISQ specification, software source code should possess the following qualitative characteristics:

Reliability
Performance efficiency
Maintainability
Security

Each of these qualitative characteristics is defined by a set of measures and rules that should be implemented in software source code. The CISQ concept can be applied to any object-oriented language.

The CISQ specifies a total of 88 quality feature measures that define the number of violations for 81 quality rules for 42 quality problems. And for the CISQ security measure (CISQ Security Measure), 19 of the 25 quality problems taken by CISQ developers from the CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) list are used.

To implement the CISQ concept effectively engineers need to have deep knowledge and understanding of the very concept, as well as be able to use source code quality analysis tools, including Softarex product codeNforcer.

Sergii

System Architect and Delivery Manager

My main responsibility as a Delivery Manager is to make sure that a product is delivered on time and within budget. To achieve that, I seek to create an encouraging environment for the team, where everyone can improve their skills, feel appreciated and, thus, produce greater value. The use of Agile tools and techniques helps me organize the teamwork more effectively and transparently. Throughout my career, I have also been actively architecting, designing, and implementing software solutions — mostly web and desktop applications — for the Healthcare, Manufacturing & Energy industries that help companies and organizations ‌streamline day-to-day business operations.

Ivan

System Architect and Delivery Manager

As a Delivery Manager, my job is to ensure on-time and on-budget delivery of the end product. In over 10 years of experience, I've worked on projects across various verticals such as Manufacturing, Energy & Utilities, but most of my professional years I've invested in the development and management of projects for the e-Learning industry. The highlight of my career is an online learning project, where I managed the development team. We've built and implemented several web and desktop applications that are currently being used by thousands of instructors and learners around the world. It was a truly valuable and interesting experience for me.

Maksim

System Architect and Delivery Manager

In over 10 years of my professional career, I have developed, architected, and managed dozens of projects for the Manufacturing & Energy, Restaurant & Hospitality, Aviation, and IT industries. I have hands-on experience with Mobile technology, Computer vision, Machine learning, Predictive modeling, Cloud computing, and SaaS. I managed the development of a Computer vision-based kitchen management system for a large restaurant chain. We did a great job on this project, and I ‌consider it the highlight of my career.
