Building Together Across Products and Platforms

Our work brings together software engineers, QA specialists, designers, product teams, and security experts across Opera's global teams.

We encourage open discussions, knowledge sharing, and ownership, with teams taking responsibility for the features they develop. Through collaboration, mentoring, and continuous learning, we support each other in solving technical challenges and turning ideas into products.

Quality, Privacy, and Product Craft

Building products for millions of users requires careful attention to quality, security, and reliability.

Our engineering teams use code reviews, automated testing, browser and API testing, static analysis, and continuous feedback to identify issues and improve product quality. We also consider privacy, security, and user control throughout development, working to make complex technologies feel simple, reliable, and intuitive.
