CHALLENGE

DELIVER SEVERAL PRODUCTS IN THE SHORT TERM

When our paths crossed, Lingu had a small team of two engineers working on the product. They have recently raised a new round of investments and needed to provide the results within 6 months. During that time, they had to deliver several products.

To meet the deadlines, Lingu had to extend the team fast and swiftly onboard experienced developers.
