Even to work in a software house company, of course you must have special abilities in the IT (Information Technology) field. At least in it there must be an IT Agency or IT Specialist who is an expert in application development matters.

Large companies that are now developed such as: Microsoft, Apple Inc., Google Inc., and Oracle Corporation are real examples of software house companies.

Software House Structure
The characteristics possessed by one software house company with other companies are indeed not the same, but if viewed from the structure of software development, they are usually the same. These structures include the following:

1. Programmer
   Programmers must be owned by every software house company because they are the ones who will make the software. They will build the program according to the instructions given by the System Analyst.
2. Project Manager
   A Project Manager has full control over the projects being worked on by the software house. They have responsibility for projects carried out by programmers, System Analysts, Product Owners, to Testers.
3. System Analyst
   The task of a System Analyst is to analyze the needs of the application that will be made by the programmer by providing the best solution by making the system more efficient and practical.

The analyst will also analyze various lines, either from the development side or from the client side.

4. Product Owner
   Someone who bridges the programmer with the client is the Product Owner. That way, a product owner must have good communication skills, because they will communicate directly with clients as well as programmers who interact with each other to complete the best solution.
5. Tester
   The software created by the programmer will be tested by a tester, who in the test will be tested based on the standard operating system of each Software House agency.

Software testing is very mandatory, the main goal is to avoid unwanted things such as bugs, crashes, errors, and force closes.

This means that testing by a tester must be detailed and must be perfect before the system made is submitted to the client or demo.
