There's something important that you need to know:
The Keyhole team consists almost entirely of software developers.
In fact, less than 10 people in the whole company are not devs. From our managing partner to our interns, our focus is development.
See Open Roles
The Keyhole team likes working with technologies.
But that's only the beginning of what makes us a team...
We Like To Learn From Our Team
So we get together for Lunch&Learns or Tech Nights every six weeks. One person presents on a technical topic to the group - everyone learns. Plus, food, drinks, and great discussion.

We Like To Learn From The Community

We Like Holidays
So we celebrate lots of them, even the silly ones (like National Hot Dog Day) or make our own (like Chip-a-Palooza). Then of course there's Cinco De Mayo, Thanksgiving, Festivus...

We Like Supporting Charity
So our team gives back to charity organizations each holiday season. We vote to find the charity our team wants to support; Operation Breakthrough for KC kids has been chosen the last few years.
We Like 3D Printing
So we created a 3-D Printing Lab in our office that any of our employees can use.
We Like Family Picnics
So we host an annual family picnic with bounce house, face painting, hamster wheel, and balloon animals!

Keyhole Company Culture
The Team: The Keyhole company culture is tight-knit, team-based, and focuses on long-term professional growth. Keyhole consultants are enthusiastic, flexible, realistic, and easy to work with. Just as much as being able to do the job is important, being on board with the Keyhole culture is something we value in any applicant.
The Dev Variety: You’ll likely never be bored – every client project is different & provides its own challenges from a technical perspective. We get to touch some cool technologies and utilize them in new ways that make our clients successful.
We Like Each Other: Tech Nights to discuss the latest dev. Happy Hours. BikeMS. NCAA bracket challenges & fantasy drafts for healthy competition. Mario Kart Tourneys. Holiday Parties. Our Keyhole Homebrewer’s Group. Movie Nights. Conferences. Cinco De Mayo potluck… and more.
How Keyhole Works – The Details
W2 Employees: At Keyhole, we’re consultants – we work with clients. But we’re all W2 employees. That means that you have a tight-knit, employee-based development team supporting you to succeed, and when a project ends you are on to the next project within the company.
Over Multiple Projects: Our employees are with us over multiple projects and look to have long-term engagement with a company (while not looking for the technological sameness of staying in the same position for years on end). When one project ends, they’re on to the next Keyhole project.
Time Off: We assume you’ll take one month off per year, and function on a 1920-hour work year. Vacation and time off are self-managed, and can often be flexed via hourly compensation.
