Project Summary

WyeWorks provided IT staff augmentation to a bank to support a migration of its core from Go to Elixir. They supplied engineers who worked remotely from Uruguay and Argentina, typically three at a time, delivering features independently and integrating with the client's internal team via Slack and Zoom. The client praised their performance, patience, and ability to handle sensitive work.

Key Challenges

Migrate the underlying banking core from Go to Elixir
Find developers already proficient in Elixir because the client had no internal Elixir expertise

Project Deliverables

Elixir codebase and features to support the banking core migration
Delivered independent features and flows
Staff augmentation (software engineers integrated into the client's teams)

Project Solution

WyeWorks provided software engineers who wrote Elixir code and worked as integrated members of the client's engineering team. The vendor supplied typically three concurrent developers (six developers in total over the engagement) who worked remotely from Uruguay and Argentina, partnered with full‑time engineers on various projects, and executed delivered features with minimal supervision.

Project Outcome

Delivered features independently and consistently shipped work
Took on sensitive flows and entire flows unsupervised
Engineers integrated into the client's processes and participated in stand‑ups and code reviews
