The Common Ground Systems team in front of a tree

Software on solid ground.

We build software collectively, transparently and fairly.

The team.

We are six people, and together we cover everything a software project needs: from engineering and project management to sales. We have worked together on all kinds of projects for years, and our skills complement each other perfectly.

Not to maximise profit. Not to collect as much data as possible. Not for the next exit.

But for people who want to rely on their software. And on us: we believe in long-term partnerships built on trust.

  • Jeremy

    Sales & marketing

    Walks into a room full of strangers and ten minutes later knows their names, favourite drinks and life stories. A social butterfly who brings people together with genuine curiosity and infectious energy.

  • Fam

    Operations

    When Fam says something will get done, it has usually already happened. With remarkable diligence, she makes sure plans actually turn into results.

  • Jonas

    Product Owner & Engineering

    Has an eye for detail and keeps polishing the frontend until it feels just right. Thanks to years of experience leading large development projects, Jonas never loses sight of the bigger picture.

  • Milan

    Project management

    A gifted D&D mastermind, Milan brings the unusual characters at CGS together in the real world too, showing off their strengths with skill and a charm all of his own.

  • Lukas

    Engineering

    Our secret weapon. Builds entire operating systems for fun in his spare time and brings a master’s degree in computer science and years of experience as a lead developer.

  • Felix

    Quality assurance & support

    Tests meticulously and finds edge cases that only exist in parallel dimensions. He meets people and bugs alike with unshakeable friendliness and a healthy dose of golden-retriever energy.

Becoming a co-op.

We want to become a co-operative: a company owned by everyone who has built it and keeps developing it.

That lets us share responsibility, plan for the long term and continue developing our products independently.
