About the Cross-Functional Engineering Department
Money Forward has developed dozens of products over the past 10 years. This rapid development was possible because we tried various development strategies using different technology stacks in various locations. However, to deliver further value to our users, it has become necessary to unify these disparate approaches. To address these challenges, the Cross-Functional Engineering Department was established in 2023. Our mission is to integrate Money Forward’s ERP products at a feature level, enhance collaboration amongst the ERP development teams, and to make development more efficient and streamlined across all ERP products.
