At ScanCAD, we take pride in our legacy of technical innovation, unparalleled expertise, and top-tier customer support. But let’s be honest… we’d be absolutely lost without our dogs.
No, really. They run the place. While the humans are busy reverse engineering impossibly complex PCBs and developing cutting-edge tools, the ScanCAD Canine Division keeps morale high, trash bins emptied (literally), and security on full alert (even if no one asked for it).
Let’s introduce you to the real staff behind the scenes:
🐾 Oliver “Karl” Loving
Title: Chief Barking Officer / Early Warning System / Definitely Not an Emotional Support Animal
Human: Travis (but you wouldn’t know it by where Oliver chooses to sit)
Job Duties:
Providing intense security enforcement—mainly against mail carriers, light wind, or absolutely nothing.
Alerting everyone that his humans are not at their desks (critical information).
Barking first, asking questions never.
Key Traits:
Loud. So loud. And for reasons known only to Oliver.
Deeply suspicious of surprises, people, cars, air, etc.
Refuses to sit near either of his actual owners, for independence… or spite?
Has… quirks. We love him for it.
👑 “Beefmaster” Brava
Title: Princess Valium / The Baby
Human: Derek
Job Duties:
Silent alarm system for anything Lemon-related.
Attempting (and failing) to calm Oliver during his “outbursts”
Staring majestically out the window like a Victorian ghost.
Serving as Lemon’s best friend and emotional support sidekick.
Key Traits:
Quiet, chill, and slow — but in a totally endearing way.
Extra cute. Like, cartoon-character-level cute.
Just trying her best to keep the peace in this chaotic little office pack.
💫 Lemon
Title: Director of Mischief
Human: Holly
Job Duties:
Running the office (unofficially, but let’s be honest… officially).
Stealing trash and making Holly chase her for it (agility training for humans).
Wrestling with Brava, chasing Oliver around the meeting table and spreading joyful chaos.
Looking very sad for no reason to earn extra attention.
Key Traits:
Cute and fluffy with a side of sass.
Side-eyes like a pro.
Scared of the office robot vacuum, yet somehow fearless when it comes to stealing toys from other dogs.
Knows a dozen tricks. Will perform exactly none of them unless she’s in the mood.
Loves swimming, frisbee, her RC car, and being admired by all.
Why It Matters
Sure, we’ve built industry-defining CAD tools and offer the most advanced PCB reverse engineering services in the world… but none of that compares to the unconditional love (and occasional chaos) our dogs bring to the office. They remind us to take breaks, keep things light, and occasionally chase each other under the conference table at full speed during meetings. You know — bstandard productivity strategy.
