The challenge

A small in-house team could not keep up with roadmap and customer requests.

The solution

Two Laravel developers joined the existing team's sprints, code reviews and on-call rotation, while a QA engineer added automated regression tests.

Remote developers worked as part of the same team — same tools, same rituals, same standards.
