I've worked with Toptal for a number of years in three different companies and have always had phenomenal results. Bringing them to the university was just a natural extension of my experience with them. You have somebody who really becomes part of the team and becomes part of the inspiration for changes within the project.

Toptal was an excellent partner in helping us modernize a key platform that enables us to build digital twins of existing and future Nylon 6,6 assets. The legacy FORTRAN codebase limited our ability to make changes. The integrated team that Toptal brought together delivered a great result—on time and under spend forecast—that we are now using to create value for our customers.

Partnering with Toptal to execute the vision was easy. The experience was not overly corporate, which is a slight concern I had in engaging with consultants. I didn’t want to work in an overly corporate environment, and Toptal has been great and flexible. You’ve all been happy, helpful, and easy to deal with. A breath of fresh air.
