Industry: FinTech

Technology Used: React, Node.js, MongoDB, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes

Region: North America

Challenge: A rapidly growing FinTech startup needed to expand its development team quickly to build a new payment platform for its growing customer base. With an influx of new users and product features, the company lacked the resources to scale development operations and meet tight delivery deadlines. The company required highly skilled developers, project managers, and DevOps engineers who could integrate with their existing teams seamlessly.

Business Impact:

• Limited technical resources to scale development operations
• Delayed product releases impacting revenue generation
• Increased project management overhead due to the need to hire and manage new team members

Solution: MSP and IT introduced the Build-Your-Team model to help the client scale its development resources with highly specialized technical talent. We provided the startup with a dedicated team of full-stack developers, front-end specialists, and DevOps engineers with expertise in React, Node.js, MongoDB, and AWS. This team was embedded within the client's existing structure, following Agile development practices to accelerate product development and ensure smooth collaboration. Additionally, we set up a containerized environment using Docker and Kubernetes to ensure scalability and optimize their infrastructure for future growth.

Technology Stack:

• React for front-end development
• Node.js for back-end development
• MongoDB for database management
• AWS for cloud hosting and scaling
• Docker & Kubernetes for containerization and orchestration

Outcome:

• 50% faster development timelines due to the specialized offshore team
• 30% reduction in infrastructure costs through the use of containerized environments
• 20% increase in customer satisfaction from the faster rollout of new features
• Improved scalability to support the platform’s growing user base

Client Testimonial: "With MSP and IT's Build-Your-Team model, we were able to scale quickly and deliver our platform ahead of schedule. Their team seamlessly integrated with ours, and the technical expertise they provided was invaluable."
