Dev.Pro staffed a full engineering team for Popmenu, a restaurant website hosting CMS, providing a project manager and multiple engineers to collaborate on development work.

Project Solution

Dev.Pro staffed an entire development team (one part-time project manager and eight engineers) and managed project delivery. Over ~six months they ramped from a single engineer to a full team and provided hiring guidance. Their engineers implemented a self-service payment management system, multi-location subscription support, migrated billing from Stripe to Chargebee, and implemented ongoing Salesforce-Popmenu data synchronization. The team used Ruby on Rails, React, PostgreSQL, Redux and CircleCI.

Some Dev.Pro resources outperformed internal team members in delivery speed
Successfully staffed the team quickly, including recommending expansion to Latin America and supporting Ukrainian staff relocation
