Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
Since 2018, our team has partnered with Fireup on numerous digital transformation initiatives, with one particularly complex heterogeneous database migration project standing out due to its unique challenges.
Working across disparate systems, we encountered significant technical hurdles including platform incompatibilities, mismatched data types, varying data interpretation mechanisms, and complex mapping requirements. Additional complexity came from different encoding and character set handling, timestamp conversion issues, numerical precision variances, and binary data storage differences - all while working under strict business continuity requirements and regulatory compliance needs.
The success of this migration demanded developers who could not only understand both technical limitations and business requirements but also design creative solutions for seemingly incompatible systems, implement robust data validation processes, and maintain data consistency while managing complex transformations.
This project highlighted the critical importance of having experienced developers who can bridge the gap between technical constraints and business objectives, as their ability to understand the broader context while solving specific technical challenges proved essential for achieving a successful migration outcome
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Reduced maintenance costs: Maintenance costs of the application were reduced by 50% due to the implementation of the new version of Aurora.
Unified technological stack: By migrating from MySQL to PostgreSQL, the technology stack was standardized across the team, meeting a key goal of technological consistency.
Avoidance of unsupported components: The migration and adaptation to Aurora 3 ensured that the system remained supported by AWS, avoiding the use of components that would no longer have support by 2024.
Creation of a compatible application: After several months of work, starting from experiments and conceptualization, a compatible application was developed. This was achieved by simplifying the process of switching between databases, which involved changing a parameter in the application.
System Synchronization: The systems were successfully synchronized, offering a product that aligns with the vision of our organization.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Fireup.pro aligned with our project management needs, enabling us to see immediate advantages. They maintain clear communication through tools like Slack, Jira, Google Meets, and email. Every inquiry or request is handled on time and with exceptional professionalism.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The fireup.pro engineers stand out for their product ownership mentality - they approach each project as if they were building their own product rather than simply fulfilling requirements. Their decisions consistently reflect long-term thinking, considering future maintainability, scalability, and business impact. This level of engagement stems from their selective hiring process that attracts top-tier talent passionate about digital product excellence. Beyond technical capabilities, their engineers seamlessly integrated with our in-house teams, sharing our values of craftsmanship and user-centric development, which made the collaboration particularly effective.
Are there any areas for improvement or something fireup.pro could have done differently?
From a delivery perspective, there is not much they can improve.

At first, we hired fireup.pro as a backend expert support. That project is focused around the company's main application, which is supported by a substantial backend component.
Later on we decided to expand our cooperation so the database expert joined our team which is building ETL solution integrating data from two databases (located in two different places) into one data store.
The latest project we are working on together is product’s brand new website.
SOLUTION
How did you select fireup.pro and what were the deciding factors?
We were in the need for experienced Java engineers who could support our local teams in creating and implementing complex integration processes. The vendor was recommended by someone from the local IT environment. That person used to work together with fireup.pro’s developers. After the recruitment process we decided to give that cooperation a try.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
There are three projects we are working on together right now:
Backend solutions project and implementation focused on our main app (Java, Hibernate, Spring, CXF, MySQL, Amazon Web Services)
Global data warehouse integrating data from databases located in different places (ETL processes based on AWS infrastructure)
The product’s brand new website (Web frontend, HTML, JavaScript)
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
2x Backend Software Engineer (Java), 1x Data Warehouse Engineer, 2x Web Frontend Engineer
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Fireup.pro team members are working as active members of mySugr's development team, therefore seamlessly extending our development capacity.
The collaboration with fireup.pro works smoothly on all levels (highly skilled individual contributors, seamless integration with development teams, professional management of the collaboration on the procurement/administration level) and gives us the confidence of working with a reliable and strong development partner.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
Fireup.pro fully adapted to our project management requirements quickly so we noticed benefits immediately. Communication is very clear, using remote tools such as Slack, Jira, Google Hangouts, or email. All questions or requests are processed promptly and with a high degree of professionalism.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The collaboration with Fireup.pro is unique in the sense that the vendor team works really hard to understand our requirements, which are often very special due to our domain (healthcare/medical), and is extremely passionate about fulfilling them to our best expectation.
People on all levels are motivated, easy to work with, compassionate, and actively participate in open feedback and discussion.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Two things I could wish for at this time, and with which fireup.pro could bring even more value to us: first, mobile developers with the same degree of experience and understanding, and second more domain knowledge in the healthcare/medical area. This would allow us to extend our collaboration even more

"fireup.pro’s developers were collaborative, responsive, and helped to reach effective management."
fireup.pro was initially hired to build the web version of a grocery shopping startup's mobile app, along with a UI for backend operations. Over time, their involvement became more focused on the app itself.
Using React Native, fireup.pro developed an MVP that has helped the client gain external funding and put their values into practice. The team came up with different solutions, demonstrating their proactive style of work. Their respectful and friendly approach was appreciated by their partner.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
Our company is a start-up that wants to provide consumers with scientific-based data on the environmental, social, and biodiversity impact of grocery products to influence daily shopping choices. My position is Product Manager & Co-Founder
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire fireup.pro?
In retrospective, the main part of the project was the development of our mobile app that is currently released as a beta version to a limited amount of test users. Initially, fireup.pro was hired to build a web version of the mobile application as well as a user interface for backend operations.
What were your goals for this project?
In the beginning, the goals were to build the web application, consisting of the following layers:
Backend algorithms to allow passive tracking of consumption behaviour
Databases
Backend UI
Frontend Web-App with User Profile Creation
Quite soon, we switched to React Native, allowing us to build a native mobile application for both Android and iOS. All backend services could of course be neatly integrated without additional efforts. The backend algorithms (1) where continuously improved throughout the course of the project.
SOLUTION
How did you select fireup.pro?
The vendor was recommended by our CTO, who used to work with fireup.pro before.
Describe the project in detail.
The initial prototype covered a few layers as mentioned before. The backend was developed in Python/Django and for the passive tracking algorithms we mainly built on serices from AWS. A scraper for advanced product search was written in Scrapy. mySQL and ElasticSearch were used for data operations and as a querying/matching solution. The Frontend was initially written in React, but very soon development was continued with React Native in order to build a proper mobile app.
What was the team composition?
2 Python backend developers, 1 frontend developer, 1 data scientist
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The project developed in cooperation with fireup.pro was quite urgent for our startup since the application itself is crucial for our business. The prototype helped us to gain external funding and the mobile application put our ideas and values into practice.
Our main goal is to make the impact of consumption more visible to consumers and thereby help mitigating ecological and social crises. The developers who were in the team showed great interest in the project and came up with their own ideas by means of a proactive style of work, which was always highly appreciated.
Also, different solutions were constructively discussed to find the best path towards a certain goal.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
Project management was handled by me, I organized the scrum ceremony, plannings, demos, dailies, and retrospectives. fireup.pro’s developers were collaborative, responsive, and helped to reach effective management. We mainly used Slack, Jira, GitHub and Google Meet for communication.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
A young dynamic team that proactively came up with solutions and contributed to the product vision of our company and massively helped to shape our initial app. I experienced collaboration with fireup.pro as very respectful and friendly and also during stressful times everyone stayed calm and focussed.
Are there any areas for improvement?
For a startup without a complete scrum team it is often hard to estimate the scope of a sprint correctly.
Although the initial phase of a startup is never without disturbances, we would have had an easier time with regards to internal planning and goal setting if developers would have given more updates on how reachable certain goals are, especially when it already becomes obvious that specific tasks cannot be reached because of too ambitious planning.
To be more concrete, a very rough number such as "one more day", "half a week" or "one week" until completion, including a rough estimate about the risk of that number, would already be more than sufficient.
