Scaling innovation in fintech means more than delivering code, it means building systems that can power entire ecosystems. One of the largest fintech networks in the U.S. needed to expand engineering capacity to develop reusable services across dozens of interconnected platforms. A regional team of experts was embedded to design backend systems, automate testing, and maintain infrastructure as code, supporting sustainable growth and ensuring consistency at scale.
The Challenge
One of the largest fintech ecosystems in the U.S. needed to scale its engineering capacity to support the development of reusable services powering dozens of interconnected financial products. The challenge was to build a dedicated team capable of integrating seamlessly with the client’s in-house U.S. developers, all while maintaining the high standards required by financial institutions.
The Process
Oceans assembled a multicultural, regional team of remote code experts across Latin America, carefully selected for their expertise in backend engineering, QA, DevOps, and technical leadership.
The team was fully integrated into the client’s internal squads and contributed to:
- Designing and developing shared services that could be reused across multiple fintech applications.
- Implementing automated testing and QA workflows using tools like Jest and Cucumber.js.
- Maintaining infrastructure as code practices using Terraform and Flyway to ensure consistency and stability.
- Facilitating smooth communication between distributed teams and aligning delivery cycles.
The Team
The Oceans team included senior engineers, quality analysts, and technical leads, all collaborating remotely with the client’s U.S.-based developers. This regional approach enabled fast ramp-up, strong cultural alignment, and 24/7 development cycles across time zones.
The Solution
As a result, the client’s already high-performing engineering team was able to scale its capabilities, launching a range of high-value services now used across dozens of fintech platforms in the ecosystem.
This engagement shows how Oceans enables complex tech organizations to grow strategically and sustainably, by embedding high-caliber teams that deliver real impact, not just velocity.
