Celebrating a culture built on agility, growth, and genuine impact
For the fourth consecutive year, Axon Active, a Swiss-owned Agile software development company with a strong footprint in Vietnam has once again secured its position on Computerworld’s Best Places to Work in IT. This milestone reflects more than consistency, it highlights a workplace where people, innovation, and purpose intersect in meaningful ways.

A Workplace Defined by True Agile Culture
Agile thinking has been embedded in Axon Active since its founding in 2008, but what sets the company apart in 2026 is how deeply these principles shape everyday work, not as procedures, but as behaviors.
Teams operate with clarity, autonomy, and share responsibility. Cross-functional collaboration is encouraged. Continuous improvement is a norm. This environment empowers engineers to explore ideas, solve problems creatively, and deliver high-quality solutions in partnership with global clients.
For many employees, this Agile first mindset is what makes work not only productive but fulfilling.

People-First Policies that Support Both Career and Well-Being
Axon Active continues to stand out because its employee experience balances ambition with care. Our company approaches people’s development with long-term vision, investing in both growth and quality of life.
Comprehensive, meaningful benefits
Interesting work and competitive benefit packages create a work environment where people feel both supported and trusted.
Professional development that opens real opportunities
Training programs, hands-on mentorship, and certification pathways allow employees, whether newcomers or experienced engineers, to progress with confidence. Many have built long-term careers inside the company thanks to this structured, continuous learning culture.
A diverse, international work environment
With multicultural teams operating through Agile frameworks like Scrum, employees experience global exposure while enjoying the stability and spirit of a close-knit workplace.
This people-first approach is why Axon Active consistently excels in key Computerworld categories such as Career Development and Retention & Engagement.
A Company That Gives Back to the Future of Tech
In 2026, CSR is more than a responsibility; it’s part of how Axon Active defines its purpose.
Creating access to education
Axon Active has donated 22 computer laboratories and more than 500 computers to underprivileged students across Vietnam, ensuring they have access to technology and modern learning tools. Its Axon Active Edu program provides training that helps young people prepare for real careers in IT, expanding opportunities where they’re needed most.

In collaboration with the HCMC Student Cultural Center, Axon Active distributed 2,536 school packages in December 2025 to students at three schools in Đắk Lắk province, shortly after Central Vietnam was hit by severe storms and flooding. These supplies are carefully curated to meet essential learning needs, help students return to school with dignity, stability, and renewed hope after a difficult period.

Building and connecting Vietnam’s tech community
Axon Active is the founder of DevDay, one of the country’s most anticipated technology events, bringing together thousands of developers, enterprises, and students every year. It also co-organizes major sports and tech-friendly competitions like DSC Championship, ICT Badminton Tournament, and ICT Friendship, reinforcing community bonds through shared passion and collaboration.

Driving sustainability and responsible innovation
With an emphasis on circular technology, our company recycles and refurbishes used devices to minimize e-waste. Combining Vietnamese environmental standards with Swiss expertise, Axon Active promotes greener, more sustainable ways of working.
These efforts reflect a workplace that believes success should uplift not only employees, but entire communities.
Why This Recognition Matters
Computerworld’s annual ranking is one of the industry’s most respected indicators of workplace quality for IT professionals. Receiving this recognition for the fourth time reaffirms Axon Active’s commitment to maintaining a culture where people feel inspired, supported, and proud of the impact they help create.
It is a testament to consistent leadership, resilient teams, and a shared belief that great software begins with great people.
