FAQs
How does a project proceed once commissioned?
Sola’s development style typically involves teams of 2-5 members managing the project. Since all the engineers handling the project are Sola employees, if any specification or design changes occur, the development impact can be minimized. If the method of development is predetermined, we proceed using a waterfall approach. However, if there is uncertainty or anticipated changes in the project, we adopt an agile development approach.
Can we request work from outside of Japan?
Yes, it’s possible. Sola can handle projects from both American and global corporations. Please feel free to contact us at contact@sola.inc for inquiries.
Can we request support for business operations in Japan?
Yes, it’s possible. Sola has extensive experience in supporting businesses within Japan. We have bilingual staff who can assist you in English or various other languages. Sola also has a real estate subsidiary in Japan that supports setting up offices and employee housing. For inquiries about business operations in Japan, please contact us at contact@sola.inc.
Can I work for Sola from a country other than Japan?
Yes, it’s possible if you are located in Japan or the United States. Sola has a subsidiary in the United States, and we employ people from various countries around the world, not just Japan. While the primary language at our Japan headquarters is Japanese, we have management and support systems in place that allow for communication in English. This means that even if you don’t speak Japanese, you can still work at Sola. However, it would be great if you have some interest in learning about Japanese culture and customs!
