The Challenge

What's holding us back

Incident frequency, onboarding friction, and slow feature delivery are all connected to the same root causes.

03 / 06

Our Answer

1

Platform reliability

Reduce P1 incidents from 3/month to under 1 by hardening the payment core and improving on-call tooling.
2

Developer experience

Cut new engineer ramp time from 6 weeks to 2 through better documentation, local environments, and test data.
3

Feature throughput

Ship the stablecoin GA and two merchant-facing features by targeting architectural bottlenecks in the API layer.

04 / 06

How We Work

🔭

No feature ships without dashboards, alerts, and runbooks. Instrument before you merge.

🧪

Feature flags and gradual rollouts by default. Dark launches before public availability.

📖

Architecture decisions recorded in ADRs. API contracts versioned alongside implementation.
