Our Story

Twenty years of building software the way we believe it should be built.

The Beginning

In 2004, Denis Gorshkov founded Diatom Enterprises in Canada with one clear principle, one we still follow today:

“Hire only seasoned professionals and let them do their jobs.”

From Canada to Europe

A few years later, Diatom moved its headquarters to Latvia — a European Union country with stable regulation, transparent legal environment, and access to a strong developer talent pool across the continent.

Diatom Today

Today, Diatom has 80+ in-house engineers. Every person at the company, from a developer to a board member, has a technical background. 

Over 90% of our clients are based in North America, and most partnerships with us last for years. We adapt to every team’s work culture and communication style, wherever they are.

Diatom Team

Two decades of steady growth, with senior engineers at the core of every project.

How We Work

Four principles we’ve kept for twenty years.

Senior by Default

No juniors dressed up as seniors. Most of our engineers have 10+ years of production experience.

Transparent

Open backlogs, weekly reporting, direct access to the team. You always know where your project stands.

Built to Last

Most of our clients stay with us for years. We invest in understanding your business, not just your backlog.

All Engineers

Everyone at Diatom, from developer to CEO, comes from a technical background.

Leadership
