The team
- Every
one of us has had several start-up experiences and on average we have
10+ years of experience in somehow similar challenges. We know success,
we know failure; we've built platforms from scratch, we've dealt with
large legacy systems. We care about each other and about the product
we're building.
- Some of the past projects where our engineers
have been involved before joining OnTruck are: building the billing
system for one of the largest telephony operators in Spain, building up
and optimising complex marketplaces handling millions of orders a month,
building real time video chats, building a global oauth/identity
provider, improving the garbage collector of the JVM, creating social
network libraries even before Facebook existed, building the Eurofighter
simulator used to train pilots, building kernel modules to deal with
real-time processor allocation, creating NLP algorithms to score user
comments and timeline recommendation algorithms, building software to
manage a backbone network, building the mobile apps of tier 1 banks,
building mobile e-readers for millions for users, integrating mobile
apps with Arduinos and dealing with the logistic platform of a big
supermarket chain.
- Investors like our concept and team and
we've been quite successful in fundraising and gathering resources to
support our future growth.
The engineering culture
- We
value speed of iteration and best practices and we care about our
craft: both our API and key components have 100% test coverage, for
instance.
- We get engineers as close to the business problems as
possible, so everybody is involved in solution design. We have
mechanisms to enable anybody in the company to bring their new ideas to
decision makers since we believe that innovative ideas come from
everywhere.
The stack
- We
have a decoupled architecture, based on REST APIs and asynchronous
services. We work with React in the frontend platforms (customers and
admin), native in mobile apps (truck drivers), Python/Django in the
transactional backend and Elixir for real-time functional needs. Our DB
is PostgreSQL and the queues run on RabbitMQ.
- We use a dedicated ERP
to avoid reinventing the wheel there and we also have built a
DWH/Analytics platform which takes advantage of external solutions.
