Project Summary

Vention provided staff augmentation services for a B2B SaaS hybrid workplace platform, embedding engineers across frontend, backend, and QA to extend the client's product pods. Their contractors worked alongside the client's engineers on backend PHP/Symfony, frontend Angular, and QA/SDET tasks, delivering customer-facing features and internal platform improvements. Engineers were fully embedded and productive within about eight weeks, and account management was responsive when scaling roles or capacity.

Key Challenges

Scale engineering capacity quickly.
Need experienced developers across full-stack, backend, and QA roles.

Project Deliverables

Feature work across the hybrid workplace platform
Customer-facing functionality
Internal platform improvements
Automated test coverage to support the release process

Project Solution

Vention provided embedded engineering talent across multiple disciplines to extend the client's in-house team. Contractors worked alongside staff engineers within existing product pods, covering backend development in PHP/Symfony, frontend development in Angular, and QA/SDET roles. They delivered feature work across the hybrid workplace platform, contributed to customer-facing functionality and internal platform improvements, and built out automated test coverage to support the release process. The engagement allowed the client to scale capacity up and down as priorities shifted without the lead time required for permanent hiring.

Project Outcome

Engineers were fully embedded and productive within around 8 weeks.
Delivered customer-facing features on a consistent sprint cadence.
Output measured the same as permanent engineers: story points delivered, PRs merged, and features shipped.
Engagement maintained product roadmap velocity without slowing core delivery.
Responsive account management eased scaling and commercial processes.

Quality of Deliverables

“Vention's engineers were fully embedded and productive within the client's team in around eight weeks. The team was genuinely responsive whenever the client needed to bring on new roles or adjust capacity. Moreover, they made the commercial side feel easy rather than transactional.”
