To meet AvioBook’s needs, Cactus applies its Engage an Expert methodology—embedding experienced developers directly into AvioBook’s workflows and culture.
The onboarding process begins with an in-person immersion in Hasselt, where developers connect face-to-face with AvioBook teams. This personal introduction ensures smoother integration and a deeper understanding of aviation-specific workflows.
At Cactus, we place strong emphasis on both the personal and technical development of our team members during their assignment. While we always adapt to meet the specific needs of our customers, we firmly believe that empowered and well-trained software engineers deliver greater productivity and higher performance. Our goal is to cultivate well-rounded, 360-degree software professionals. To achieve this, Cactus invests significant effort in ensuring that every team member follows a structured and continuous training path.
In addition, our cross-cultural and international team brings diverse perspectives, problem-solving approaches, and experiences to the table—leading to stronger collaboration and more creative solutions. This diversity creates a dynamic and engaging work environment and brings value to our customers. With a broader, more global mindset, our combined teams are able to develop higher-quality, more user-focused products.
To support ongoing alignment, Cactus conducts structured follow-ups post-onboarding. These check-ins, led by HR and technical managers, help proactively identify needs and maintain productivity. Cactus also ensures consistent coordination through dedicated team managers.
Beyond the day-to-day work, both teams strengthen collaboration through team-building activities in Belgium, joint attendance at iOS conferences, and meetups in Seville, fostering integration, trust, and cross-border synergy that enable Cactus developers to act as true strategic partners.
