Grover GMBH - ecommerce marketplace

Created and launched a card product from scratch, powered by Solaris bank APIs.

Developed an end-to-end understanding of how cards are issued in Germany and performed integrations with the existing eCommerce portal.

Led the pre-paid cards team and designed the initial architecture with limited resources. As we got more clarity, we started building the team along with the engineering manager.

Created OKRs, used t-shirt sizing, worked in 2-week sprints, and had daily standups and regular 1-on-1s, ensuring everyone was on the same page.

Scaled our lean squad to six developers within two years and launched the pre-paid card in partnership with Solarisbank. Continued to grow steadily, with the maximum number of transactions reaching 20 requests per second (RPS).

Assigned on-call devs as it was a 100% remote team working in different time zones.
