Project Summary

Euristiq developed and designed a privacy-focused identity verification platform for a Canadian interbank network, providing UI/UX reviews, front- and back-end engineering, mobile app development, and QA. The team re-architected the system for event-driven processing by migrating more than 18 microservices from Amazon SQS to Kafka and evaluated OCR providers via a Golang proof-of-concept. The engagement improved scalability, onboarding speed, and fraud prevention while maintaining strong accountability and communication.

Key Challenges

Develop a secure, scalable, and privacy-compliant online identity verification system
Ensure PII is processed only with explicit user consent and deleted immediately after verification
Increase onboarding flexibility and speed
Improve system scalability to support high user volumes
Enable effective API versioning
Identify the most suitable OCR provider for accurate document verification

Project Deliverables

UI/UX design reviews
Front-end and back-end development
Mobile application development
Quality assurance
Designed and implemented APIs with a custom API versioning solution
Migration of 18+ microservices from Amazon SQS to Kafka
Service monitoring, logging, tracing, and event standardization
Golang Proof-of-Concept evaluating three OCR providers and detailed recommendations

Project Solution

Euristiq assigned a 19-person team to provide end-to-end development and improvements for an online identity verification platform. They performed technical stack selection, architecture engineering, and requirements elaboration; conducted UI/UX design reviews; delivered front-end, back-end, and mobile development; and provided QA. The vendor designed and implemented APIs (including a custom API versioning solution), re-architected the system to support event-driven processing by migrating more than 18 microservices from Amazon SQS to Kafka, implemented service monitoring/logging/tracing and event standardization, and executed a Golang proof-of-concept to evaluate three OCR providers with recommendations.

Project Outcome

18+ microservices migrated from Amazon SQS to Kafka, significantly improving scalability and asynchronous event processing
Three OCR providers evaluated through a Proof-of-Concept with a clear recommendation
Streamlined identity verification process resulting in quicker and smoother user onboarding
Improved fraud prevention, including document reuse detection and fuzzy name matching
Enhanced visibility and control over verification workflows via customizable checks and improved reporting
