To build world class digital products takes more than just design and development.

Dovetail offers a diverse range of skillsets across various disciplines. With Dovetail you have the ability to bring a subject matter expert into your business as required.

Selected skillsets include:

Digital Strategists

Ultimately your project will be judged by its commercial results and our entrepreneurial team can help you to position your product in the market, research competitors, validate ideas and help you evaluate the commercial opportunity.
Mobile UX Designers

The design patterns and conventions for mobile are subtly different to other formats such as web. If you’re launching a mobile product then you want a designer with years of experience working on large, highly-rated, popular apps.
Product Experts

Dovetail’s product team sit at the intersection of commercial strategy, engineering and design. You don’t want PMs, engineers or BAs making the all important product decisions on your platform. Our product team have led product for many of the largest digital products in Australasia and beyond.
Integration Engineers

We don’t just build beautiful interfaces. We’ve got senior engineers with decades of experience working on large mission-critical software. Whether you’re building a complex platform or need to integrate with large back-office systems, we’ve got your back.
QA Testers

Dovetail uses a range of automated testing strategies and CI/CD techniques to ensure that our projects continue to function as they should. In addition to that we have dedicated QA specialists with an eye for detail to catch any issues not picked up programmatically.
