Our Ethos
At Argo DevOps Solutions Ltd, we've embraced the spirit of continuous learning, knowledge share and innovation to shape our ethos. Inspired by the remarkable example set by Automattic and Github, a pioneering advocate of remote work, we've cultivated a set of guiding principles that define who we are and how we operate.
Relentless learning
We understand that learning is a lifelong journey. We're committed to expanding our knowledge, pushing boundaries, and exploring uncharted territories. We seek opportunities to grow, challenge convention, and lead the way.
Embracing Change
We acknowledge that there's no such thing as a status quo in our fast-evolving world. Change is our constant companion, and we're agile in adapting to it. We thrive in an environment that values innovation and adaptability.
Sustainable Growth
We're dedicated to building our business sustainably. Our foundation lies in nurturing passionate and loyal customers who believe in the value we bring. We prioritise long-term relationships over short-term gains.
Collaborative Spirit
We value the power of teamwork. We'll never hesitate to lend a hand to a colleague, for we remember our own learning journey and the support we received along the way. Collaboration is our cornerstone.
Impact Over Profit
While financial success matters, we're more motivated by the impact we create. We recognise that true value extends beyond monetary gains, and we strive to make a positive difference in everything we do.
Transparent Communication
Communication is the lifeblood of our distributed company. We prioritise open, honest, and timely communication to ensure that everyone is informed, aligned, and empowered.
The Marathon Mindset
We're in this for the long haul, not just a sprint. We understand that even the most ambitious goals are achievable through consistent, daily progress. One step at a time, we move closer to our aspirations.
Problem Solving
We believe that given time, there's no problem that's insurmountable. Challenges are opportunities in disguise, and with perseverance, creativity, and collaboration, we can conquer them all.
Effective Documentation
We believe in the power of clear, concise, and accessible documentation. We acknowledge sharing is a fundamental part of our collaborative culture. We aim to document our work, ideas, and processes comprehensively, ensuring that our colleagues can easily understand and build upon them.

Who We Support
Armed Forces Covenant
Argo is proud to hold the Armed Forces Covenant (AFC) silver award. Awarded 17th June 2022
Argo's core values neatly align with the typical work ethic and passion that augments the high skills and vast experience that veterans bring. Argo's recruitment of veterans is boosted by adverts placed via the Career Transition Partnership (CTP) and Tech Vets. Many of the existing employees were recruited following recommendations from existing Argo employees. As the company increases its veteran footprint, we hope to exploit our growing connections with the Armed Forces.
In support of this, the company have appointed two internal mentor/advisors to support and help service leavers with the transition to Argo's civilian workforce and customer environments.
