Who you'd work for

Founded by an engineer who has done this before

Full Scale was founded in 2018 by Matt Watson, a four-time tech founder who spent more than 20 years as a developer and CTO. He co-founded VinSolutions and grew it to a roughly $150 million acquisition, then founded Stackify, a developer tools company he later sold.

That matters if you are an engineer, because Full Scale is not a call center that added developers to the menu. It is a software company run by someone who has spent his whole career hiring engineers, managing engineers, and shipping software with engineers. He even wrote a book about it, Product Driven, on engineering leadership and ownership.

The company is US-registered in Leawood, Kansas, with a Philippine corporation and an office in Cebu City. Stable US clients, a legitimate Philippine employer, and leadership that speaks fluent developer.

We are in the PEOPLE business

Our clients come to Full Scale to build long-term engineering teams, which means our whole business depends on finding great people and keeping them happy for years. Your career growth is not an HR slogan here. It is the product.

With a growing team across Cebu, the Visayas, Mindanao, and the rest of the Philippines, we are building the strongest community of software engineers in the country, one long-term placement at a time.

What working here actually looks like

Together all year

Five big company events a year plus nine employee clubs, from sports to hobbies. Remote work does not mean working alone.

Work from anywhere in the Philippines

Full-time work from home with a company laptop, equipment, and a work-from-home allowance. No relocation, no commute.

A real career path

Structured mentorship and promotion paths from junior to senior to lead, with performance reviews that actually happen.

Spartan Training Academy

Our internal AI upskilling program keeps every engineer sharp on the tools that are changing this industry, on company time.

The work

Real products, not projects

Full Scale engineers join one US client team long-term and build alongside them as full members: same standups, same tools, same codebase ownership. Our engineers work with companies like AMC Theatres, where the team helps run the world's largest movie-theatre ticketing platform, and SOTA Cloud, an FDA-cleared cloud dental imaging product.

No project-hopping every few months, and no layers of project managers between you and the people using what you build.

Corporate Social Responsibility

We Are Committed To Making A Positive Impact

Education

School builds and student programs, because the next generation of Filipino engineers starts in a classroom.

Environment

Bamboo planting and cleanup drives that put the team outdoors doing something that outlasts a sprint.

Animal welfare

Hands-on support for the Philippine Eagle Center and the Island Rescue Organization animal shelter.

Community

Tech-community events like DevCon and outreach programs across the Visayas and Mindanao.

Every employee gets to be part of it, not just watch the photos afterward. See the full community story.
