01. Our client
Our client is a Swedish product company that offers a platform for HR procurement automation. This platform lets employees—new and existing ones—easily order the proper work devices from a curated selection and buy them out for personal use after their lifecycle is over. It also simplifies offboarding, ensuring a hassle-free transition of devices when an employee leaves.
As the client’s user base grew, they needed skilled Ruby developers to expand the platform. They chose us for our technical expertise and strong cultural fit.
02. Challenge
02. Challenge
From the start, the client had an ambitious vision and a lot to accomplish. They wanted to attract more customers to hit key KPIs and secure the next round of investment. But to make it happen, they needed to scale their platform so it could handle growing traffic and user demands.
This task required bringing in more tech experts, particularly those skilled in Ruby. Since finding the right people quickly was critical, a lengthy recruitment process wasn’t an option. Simply handing off tasks to an external team wouldn’t work, either, as the client needed developers fully involved in their workflows. They chose staff augmentation as a perfect solution for their challenge and partnered with Teamvoy for relevant services.
03. Cooperation
03. Cooperation
We started working together in 2021, at the peak of COVID-19, and our partnership is still ongoing. Over the years, we’ve consistently delivered excellent results, helping the client reach their goals and effectively tackle pitfalls along the way.
Working together: How it started and how it’s going
The client set high expectations for the developers right from the start. The Teamvoy experts they hired are all senior professionals who have been with the client through both highs and lows. Here’s how our partnership has evolved.
Starting point
When our cooperation began, the client had two in-house teams in Stockholm and Göteborg. Alongside Teamvoy’s experts hired through a staff augmentation model, they worked with multiple subcontractors. But when investors cut funding, the client was forced to downsize their team and end their collaboration with other vendors.
Yet, they chose to continue cooperation with our team because, over the first year of cooperation, Teamvoy had proven to be a high-performing, trustworthy partner. As a result, most of the development work shifted to our experts. But going through these hardships together has only strengthened our relationship.
Where we stand today
Our experts now make up most of the team behind the platform. The user base continues to expand, and we are the core people responsible for the platform’s technical evolution required to support this growth.
Teamvoy’s talent at work: Cooperation format
We’ve been working with the client through the traditional staff augmentation model. Here’s what it looks like in practice.
Team
Our experts are integrated into multiple client’s in-house teams led by product owners. On a daily basis, they work just like internal team members, participating in meetings and following the client’s workflows.
The client has full control over the Teamvoy experts: they assign projects, manage tasks, and oversee the work.
Availability
Our experts are available whenever the client needs them. Always ready to go the extra mile, they can put in additional hours to meet the project’s goals.
Processes
The team works on a project-by-project basis. A project manager from the client’s side assembles a team for each project, which typically lasts 3-6 weeks. Once one project ends, the cycle repeats. So, our experts must quickly adapt to new requirements, a fast-paced work environment, and different collaborators.
We have monthly follow-ups with the client’s top management to discuss project progress, gather feedback on the team’s performance, and make sure everything stays on track.
