The Challenge
Following a period of rapid growth, JET was looking for support across their global platforms. In order to focus on improving the evolution of its core products and platforms, they chose to bolster their custom development capabilities and to build out their engineering teams. This at first meant needing to scale more effectively with a near-shore presence that complimented their global enigineering team across the UK and Europe. Ciklum's ability to help scale teams of talented engineers and developers rapidly, its strong global presence, and expertise in custom software development made this partnership a strong match for JET.
What did Ciklum do
In the first five years of the partnership, we were able to grow a team of approximately 100 Ciklum engineers responsible for delivering some of JET's most strategic initiatives.
JET regularly cites the high quality of talent, co-location nature of the team, and Ciklum’s broader client community as three major positives. We also contribute, improve and provide support for a high-performance and scalable cloud ecosystem.
Ciklum supports JET in six of countries, and in 11 countries, by our engineers who help with development, and our engineers provide on-call service 24/7 with platform stability.
Over the past decade, the partnership has continued from strength to strength. Both company’s from the start have reached success due to a strong cultural match and with a drive to deliver engineering excellence.
