Client background
Responsible.us is an eCommerce company that facilitates the resale of premium streetwear. The company collaborates with brands and allows customers to return used items for store credit reducing the amount of clothing sent to landfills.
Business challenge
The client was developing a new version of their product that would allow customers
to return clothing, including a frontend for customers and an admin console for internal teams. They had tight deadlines to deliver an MVP and had to build a team from scratch.
The client lacked dedicated DevOps in their team, and infrastructure creation and maintenance were the responsibility of backend developers.
For the new version of the product, the client decided to hire a DevOps team to design processes and infrastructure from scratch.
Solution
Gart provided two dedicated engineers to the client, a DevOps Architect and a Senior DevOps to work on the project.
We began with the design phase. Over the first two weeks, we accomplished the following with the client’s team:
- Defined and agreed on the branching strategy for the project
- Designed a CI/CD workflow for the chosen branching strategy
- Designed infrastructure and environments to meet development, testing, and production needs
After the design phase, the Gart Solutions team worked with the client to implement all the designed processes and infrastructure.
