About the Product "Notebook" is the internal codename for Worknice's flagship product.
Notebook is a web-based SaaS product targeted at the following market:
Core HR: Notebook focuses on solutions to problems experienced by HR teams.
Notebook isn't a generic solution like a spreadsheet or a project management tool. Mid-market: Notebook is optimised for organisations with 50–1000 employees that have a dedicated HR function.
Notebook is not suitable for small organisations without full-time HR roles, nor large enterprise organisations that require bespoke solutions. Australian: Notebook has first-class support for the Australian tax and superannuation systems, common Australian attestations and other country-specific conventions.
Notebook is not intended for use by organisations which aren't based in Australia. We don't work in silos.
Individuals are responsible for seeing work through from start to finish instead of each person doing their part and throwing it over the wall.
That doesn't mean everyone needs to be an expert in everything and it doesn't mean no-one helps each other, but it does mean that if someone's expertise is required to complete a piece of work you should pull them in to help out instead of passing it on like factory work.
The flip-side of this is that each of us should lend our help to others as needed and balance our workload accordingly.
Ship Early, Ship Often We always want to avoid analysis paralysis.
Instead, we want to get changes in front of users as quickly as possible and, by default, we lean towards cutting down scope in favour of increasing budget/timeline or sacrificing quality.
That helps us find out if we're heading in the wrong direction quickly and adjust course accordingly.
Provide UI engineering support to team members implementing user-facing product features.
Develop "Core HRIS" Features Design and develop Notebook's core features:
Employee Directory People Profiles Shared Calendar & Events Confidential Notes Comments Design and develop features for managing positions and employment details:

Employee Details Maintain Accessibility Ensure the accessibility goals of our products are met:
Work with the rest of the team to implement practices to ensure the products we develop are accessible. Implement and maintain tools and features to improve accessibility. Advocate for "manager" Users Advocate internally for the needs of "manager" users.
These are the users who were probably not involved in the customer's decision to use Worknice, but probably use our products for a lot of their day-to-day work.
