Project Summary

Quantum developed the backend for Bayce’s visual B2B filesharing platform, building user permission management and complex search on AWS using Kotlin, Neo4j, Spring Boot, and CircleCI. They implemented AWS-based storage and CloudFront integration, set up CI/CD pipelines, and provided OAuth2/SSO support. The platform improved the client's technical capabilities and operational efficiency; the team delivered ahead of schedule and maintained high stability since launch.
