Damir Matic’s extensive experience has shaped the engineering and architecture teams at Mortgage Cadence. His intimate understanding of the role that product architecture plays in the overall success of the business ultimately enables the company’s clients to pursue new opportunities and achieve unique profit gains.

Just one of Matic’s accomplishments this past year helped industrialize Mortgage Cadence’s product release process, ultimately benefiting ongoing software quality. This accomplishment, also known as agile train, decouples release methodology from development methodology, so that features are developed in separate branches and not slotted for release until they have been completed.
