Client Needs and Challenges:

indyRIOT was building a next-generation community platform designed to be genuinely good for its users. They needed engineering support that could hit the ground running and operate with startup-level agility.

Сhallenges:

  • Startup pace and flexibility. Priorities shifted quickly. Our team had to adapt to changing requirements and take initiative rather than wait for detailed specifications.
  • Complex, interconnected modules under tight timelines. Features like Forums and Events were foundational pieces of a social platform, not isolated add-ons. We had to design and ship them as complete modules within aggressive deadlines.
  • Infrastructure and performance at scale. Growing platform usage puts increasing demands on infrastructure and database performance, requiring ongoing optimization alongside feature delivery.
  • Modern stack requiring senior-level expertise. The platform's technology stack demanded engineers who could work confidently across the full architecture without a long ramp-up period.

Services Delivered

HBM operated as an embedded engineering partner, contributing across product development, infrastructure, and operations.

Software development

Our engineers led full lifecycle development of the Forum module and its Admin panel, from design through release. We also played a key role in building the Events module, which added rich engagement capabilities, including file attachments, location mapping, custom tags, and category management.

DevOps

We supported indyRIOT's deployment and infrastructure pipeline, ensuring reliable delivery cycles and environmental stability as new features rolled out. This included database optimization and maintaining consistency across environments to match the team's rapid development pace.

Outcomes

HBM's involvement helped indyRIOT accelerate feature delivery and strengthen its platform during a pivotal growth stage.

Project results:

  • Full delivery of the Forum module and its Admin interface, shipped on schedule and at production quality
  • Successful launch of the Events module, adding a major engagement layer with extensive customization for end users
  • Proactive contributions to the development process, including direct communication with end users to identify improvements and enhancements to the existing platform
