Highlights

AI-forward engineering culture — daily use of tools like Claude, Cursor and Copilot.

Multi-year re-platform in progress: migrating from a Ruby on Rails monolith to Go microservices on AWS — engineers join with real influence over architecture, not just maintaining legacy code.

A logistics problem most software was never built for: getting hot food through a loading dock, past security, and set up on time for a room full of people, at national scale, every day.

Deliberate nearshore strategy — the client has an explicit goal to source 30–40% of engineering capacity from nearshore partners, with real headroom to grow the team.
