Refuge Software is a small, friendly and agile
software company in Central Florida. We make
custom software on-demand as well as extend
(reverse engineer and then re-design) software
for a number of clients in the private and
government sector.
Kevin Inscoe and Gil Young started the company
in 1995 because they wanted to develop software
the right way, hire the best software people and
treat them like stars. Our developers work from
home and have total freedom to do great work.
We're privately held, and profitable since inception.
And we collaborate together on-line every day.

"The environment that nutures creative programmers kills management and marketing types - and vice versa. Programming is the Great Game.
It consumes you, body and soul. When you're caught up in it, nothing else matters. When you emerge into daylight, you might well discover
that you're a hundred pounds overweight, your underwear is older than the average first grader, and judging from the number of pizza boxes
lying around, it must be spring already. But you don't care, because your program runs, and the code is fast and clever and tight. You won.
You're aware that some people think you're a nerd. So what? They're not players. They've never jousted with Windows or gone hand to hand
with DOS. To them C++ is a decent grade, almost a B - not a language. They barely exist. Like soldiers or artists, you don't care about the
opinions of civilians. You're building something intricate and fine. They'll never understand it." -- Orson Scott Card
