summary
EPAM builds an internal analytics tool (public Open Source Index planned) that uses push-event velocity and GitHub IDs linked to HR to quantify contributor activity, language adoption (Western Europe: Java; Eastern Europe: Python), and retention. It tracks repo pulse graphs, predicts monthly contributions, detects a post-June rise in contributors after training, and ties metrics to business OKRs (claims like contributing toward 25% attrition reduction and Net Zero goals). A $50k bonus program for contributors is active and data drives hiring and product decisions.
