This year marks 10 years of business for the Engine Room team. After a decade of offering web development and consulting solutions, we are grateful to reflect on the journey that began and grew our company to where it is today.
At its inception, Founder and CEO Dennis Egen named Engine Room for life lessons learned from the sport of rowing. The “engine room” refers to the four seats at the center of the boat, providing power and momentum to propel the craft forward. Similarly, Engine Room aims to use our approach and expertise to drive your business forward toward your goals.
Embodying the boat’s engine room and a successful crew team, Dennis sought to create an organization founded on leadership, teamwork, strategy, and tenacity. The Engine Room team works to live out those qualities daily as we design, build, and secure high-performing digital assets with our partners and clients. Just as a strong rowing team requires intentional coordination, we aim for effective synchronicity with clients and vendors to yield prosperous results in digital technology.
To communicate that vision and organizational identity, our team developed and lives by six core values that drive our work each day:
- We’re all in, all the time.
- We take care of our people.
- We are earnest, honest, and inventive.
- We are fanatical problem solvers.
- We build everything around our client’s objectives.
- We show up every day.
As Engine Room has advanced, we have added team members, expanded expertise, and adapted to new physical and virtual work environments to meet our growing client base. Each year has been punctuated by new team members, fresh office spaces, or milestone project achievements. Through all of those changes and developments, the core values remain constant.
The Engine Room community consists of U.S.-based technology, coding, UX, QA, and engineering experts who use their decades of combined experience to create innovative digital solutions for industry-leading clients.
No matter what role our team members represent, we are all dedicated to delivering impeccable digital assets, providing fanatical customer service, and offering personalized solutions. We work together seamlessly to provide clients with a coordinated and beautifully designed experience with unmatched results.
Just like the skilled athletes on a rowing team, each person on the Engine Room team excels in their area and respects the distinct value of their colleagues. The internalized personal responsibility and mutual respect across individual team members allow our company to succeed as a whole. This matters greatly because when we succeed as a group, our clients see unprecedented gains. Engine Room’s results allow clients to vastly improve their bottom-line outcomes and grow toward their institutional goals.
