Project Summary

Binar::Apps provided staff augmentation to help build a freelance management system for a startup, working with React and Node.js. They collaborated with the client to define architecture and have been integrated into daily workflows, identifying bugs and producing high-quality, structured code. The engagement is ongoing since October 2017 and includes daily communication and periodic onsite workshops.

Key Challenges

The CTO was essentially the entire tech team and needed development capacity
There was a local shortage of development talent in the client's location
The client needed a remote development team that could integrate and act like internal staff

Project Deliverables

Full-stack development (React and Node.js)
Rough system architecture and ongoing architectural guidance
Ongoing codebase maintenance and bug identification

Project Solution

The vendor provided three full-stack developers to augment the client's small tech team, collaborating without full product specs to co-design a rough system architecture and deliver iterative, agile development. They integrated into the client's daily workflows (Slack, daily standups), reviewed specs with the in-house designer, identified bugs and non-functioning components, and contributed continuous code development and quality improvements.

Project Outcome

The platform was planned to launch within a month of the feedback and remains in final stages of development
Delivered high-quality, structured code that follows the client's best practices
The remote team functions like an integrated extension of the client's team with smooth communication and proactive support
