Purpose of the product
Over nine months, our team collaborated closely with Nordstrom’s IT department to modernize their staff management system.

Project Description
Over nine months, our team of six developers collaborated closely with Nordstrom’s IT department to modernize their staff management system.
We migrated from a monolithic architecture to a Kubernetes-based microservices infrastructure, enabling a 40% faster onboarding process for new employees while ensuring seamless reliability.
We automated CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins, reducing deployment times and increasing release frequency from monthly to bi-weekly. Legacy code refactoring and infrastructure optimizations cut manual bug-fixing by 30% and infrastructure costs by 20%.
