Egeniq not only develops apps for customers, but we also support customers that have their own development team and even other app developers. If a company has a need for such skills, we can fulfill the role of architect or lead developer.
As the scale of a mobile project increases, a solid architecture becomes crucial.
If you don’t just expect thens of thousands, but rather hundreds of thousands of users then a great user experience is heavily dependent on a proper architecture, tailored to the characteristics of a mobile device. Many performance issues that we encounter during our work stem from a bad architecture or from not taking into account the memory and processing limitations of a small device.
Designing a mobile architecture and documenting it is not a task many companies deal with on a daily basis. Translating an interaction design to an API and technical app design, connecting to databases and third parties (such as payment providers), enriching content, are not trivial exercises. We constantly need to take performance, security, scalability and maintainability into account.
With our temporary presence in a development team app developers can take on larger projects and increase their customer base and revenue. Egeniq can perform various roles during a project: Lead developer, overall architect, but also team coaching and coaching of individual developers.
In the Lead Developer role we help teams with the right choice of tools, the implementation of a development methodology, creating project development environments, and the right choice of test methodologies. Our involvement can be temporary, during the initial setup of a project, or it can last throughout the life cycle of the project, all the way until the support phase.
In the Architect role we create a solid foundation on top of which a project can be built; we essentially de-risk the project by identifying bottlenecks, problem areas and providing a technical solution.
We are convinced that the mobile market is so growing so rapidly, that cooperation between app developers is a critical success factor, just to be able to meet the increasing demand of the market. This is true for app developers, but also for interaction and graphical designers. We believe in The Netherlands as a mobile technology knowledge hub, with high quality technical solutions and a pool of talent. Egeniq loves to support the market in its role as a knowledge provider for the technically challenging projects, in other words for ‘the hard stuff’.
