Building a Secure, Bitcoin-Based Crypto Platform

About Abra

Abra built one of the first blockchain-based peer-to-peer money networks, helping users invest, trade, send, and manage crypto across many markets.

The challenge

Abra wanted to streamline the trading experience, elevate UX for about two million users across 150 countries, and scale engineering without proportional hiring overhead.

The solution

Abra used Rocketeams’ staff augmentation model to scale development with nearshore engineers for time-zone alignment. The team brought depth in Android, Java, Scala, and iOS, with emphasis on automation, QA, and delivery speed.

Outcomes

1. Improved test automation, coverage, and QA discipline
2. Delivered US domestic wires and ACH capabilities and ETFs/stock trading modules
3. Better mobile performance on iOS and Android
4. Reduced hiring effort while accelerating delivery
