IT Staff Augmentation for a financial technology company

Trading platform / 12-month engagement / 7-person team

About the project

The client is launching a new product with an advanced architecture. It consists of multiple microservices developed by different teams. The company aims to expand its development capacity while minimizing the time required to hire and onboard new employees.

Proposition and cooperation

Radency streamlined team extension at scale. By connecting technical leadership directly with our Delivery Partner, the client was able to build the team from scratch in 3 months and deliver the product MVP on time.

Delivery Partner - a seasoned software engineer with over 10 years of industry experience. They may participate in every important aspect of the SDLC, including gathering requirements, designing the architecture, and staffing the team.

Depending on project needs they may act as a Solution Architect, Delivery Manager, or an Engineering Manager.

First candidate in 3 weeks

Our Delivery Partner held a series of meetings with the product management and technical leadership to gain a comprehensive understanding of the project requirements, team expectations, product demands, and the necessary skill sets. The client received their batch of pre-screened candidates within 3 weeks after the start of cooperation.

Interview top 5%

We took on the major part of the hard work of the hiring process. Every candidate passed the interview with the Delivery Partner to match their engineering skills with project expectations. The client only needed to engage in conversations with the top 5% of the qualified candidates.

From 6 down to 1 round of interviews

For each candidate, we provided a summary of our interview, including the strengths and weaknesses we observed. The client conducted only a final interview round, ensuring the best fit for their team.

First commit in 2-3 days

Our Delivery Partner, located in the same time zone as the engineers, could answer most of the technical and organizational questions. By accumulating knowledge, they could anticipate and resolve many issues for engineers in advance. The new engineers quickly grasped the system, processes, and requirements, allowing them to start coding within the first 2–3 days.

20 % faster hiring of new team-mates

We maintained open communication and fostered a collaborative partnership with our client, enabling us to align with their evolving goals and hire engineers 20% faster.

Continuous improvement of the cooperation

The Delivery Partner set up monthly meetings with the client to share feedback and adjust expectations. We took on the responsibility for replacing engineers if needed, without any extra charges, ensuring minimal risks for the client.
