Element 14

Element 14 undertook a custom software development project for an employment matchmaking platform. The project involved building upon a platform previously developed by another vendor and implementing changes and iterations to it. The team consisted of two full-stack developers, a frontend developer, a backend developer, and the CTO. The partnership, which began in March 2022 and is still ongoing, was facilitated by a CEO friend who had a positive past experience with Element 14. The client has invested approximately $60,000 in the project.

For a fintech startup, Element 14 provided staff augmentation services to boost the speed of development. The team, which fluctuated in size but averaged five members, worked on various features of the client's app, including the dashboard, invoices, integrations, and payments. The technologies used were Angular and .NET, despite Element 14's expertise being in React and Node. The team also created automated testing for the client. The decision to work with Element 14 was based on their expertise, flexibility, and a referral.

Element 14 was hired by a software company, Umbrello, to build out a screening solution, develop a tech stack, and provide ongoing development support. The team, consisting of 6-10 employees, designed and implemented a scalable, secure architecture tailored to the product’s requirements. They also developed robust, maintainable server-side logic, including database design and API endpoints. The team seamlessly integrated critical services including authentication, payments, and external data providers. They established CI/CD pipelines and configured cloud infrastructure for smooth, automated deployments. Additionally, they delivered comprehensive automated testing coverage and supported rapid iteration cycles with minimal regression. Post-launch, they provided reliable maintenance, bug fixes, and feature enhancements with quick turnaround and consistent communication. The decision to work with Element 14 was based on their pricing, culture fit, value for cost, and alignment with company values.
