Squad Building for Innovative Product Development

The Challenge

A banking end client were looking to develop a new web application which could decrease the involvement of the operations team on engineering tasks, however at the early stage it was merely a vision. As this had never been done before, the team at the time didn’t have the expertise to go and turn this initial vision into a reality.

The Solution

Using are industry expertise, we were able to work alongside our solution partner to build a squad which was tasked with creating a greenfield web application which allows SMEs to design new services for the infrastructure engineering department, which can then be automatically created and deployed within the bank.

The Key Tech Technologies for this solution were - Microservices, Jenkins, Golang, GCP, Angular, Kubernetes and Docker

The Squad included - DevOps Engineer, Front-end Developer, Back-end Developer, Automation Test Engineer, Solution Architect and Product Owner. This squad is still supported by SME/Consultants when needed.

Outcome

Long term booking leading to £X million in revenue for our solution partner, but also a compelling case study and eyes on the ground to help them grow their footprint within the bank.
