Employee Handbook

Our Internal Systems

The tools and systems we use at Sevenview Studios to build, communicate, and run the company.

Our Internal Systems

Here are the tools and systems we use to build, communicate, and run the company.

Slack

Our primary communication tool. All day-to-day conversation happens here — team chat, project discussions, standups, and quick questions. You'll be invited to the relevant channels on your first day.

Outport

Our own internal tool, and where most of the day happens. Your cards and sprint board live here, along with time tracking, leave and your break timer. Log your time daily against the right project. Stacey will walk you through how we use it during onboarding.

GitHub

All of our code lives on GitHub. You'll get access to the relevant repositories on your first day. We use pull requests for code review. If you're not familiar with our Git workflow, a teammate will walk you through it.

Payment Evolution

Our payroll system. You'll receive pay stubs through PayChequer (Payment Evolution's employee portal). You'll get an invitation to set up your PayChequer access during onboarding.

Google Workspace

We use Google Workspace for email, calendar, documents, and file storage. Your @sevenview.ca email will be set up before your first day.

1Password

We use 1Password for shared credentials and secrets. Never store passwords in plain text, Slack messages, or documents. If you need access to a shared credential, ask Steve.
