Project Solution

TeaCode.io acted as an embedded development partner on multiple projects, taking responsibility for implementation and QA while the client provided design. Projects began with discovery and UX design phases run by the client, then moved into development executed by TeaCode.io in weekly or biweekly sprints. The vendor supplied full-stack development and QA engineering support (including a named QA engineer), migrated thousands of legacy users to the cloud, implemented an identity verification flow for the student loan app, developed an approval portal, and is currently developing a small CRM system. The technology stack included React on the frontend and Node.js on the backend.
