Project Overview

A finance organization in the USA needed experienced engineers to support banking software, payment platforms, and cloud modernization without a long internal hiring cycle. Starling Elevate provided dedicated IT talent through staff augmentation, embedding developers, QA specialists, DevOps engineers, and cloud experts into the client's existing Agile teams.

The five-month engagement covered Java, .NET, React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, AWS, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, and Jenkins across backend services, customer portals, and CI/CD pipelines for financial applications.

Augmented engineers joined sprint planning, code reviews, and release workflows as integrated team members while supporting banking software, regulatory compliance requirements, and ongoing product roadmaps.

The staff augmentation model covered technology assessment, talent selection, finance-domain onboarding, Agile squad integration, continuous delivery support, and ongoing delivery performance reviews.
