Problem

Conversant approached TEAM International to help build out their engineering delivery teams. This called for accessing talent bases across several different disciplines, including back-end (Java and Node.js), Front-end (Angular), and Business Intelligence

Our TEAM

TEAM International augments 6 different solutions teams at Conversant, working side by side in front-end, back-end, and BI capacities.

Conversant is an industry leader in personalized marketing.

The Solution

Conversant is in the midst of evolving its systems across multiple fronts, and TEAM's engineers help provide the talent and horsepower needed for such an ambitious endeavor. This effort includes designing and building a new microservices architecture, a looselycoupled front end platform, and a sharable component library, while simultaneously supporting existing codebases.

The BI engineers from TEAM work with Conversant's analytics development group in developing and maintaining ETL jobs that feed growing and diverse reporting needs. Conversant has the challenge of reporting details that represent millions of rows per day, so writing high-performance SQL is a must. TEAM's BI engineers are up to that task and have earned Conversant's confidence.
