The Opportunity
Angi Homeservices’ rebranding and corporate reorganization was fast approaching when our work together first began. This period of planned transition was soon accompanied by an unplanned transition: an opportunity to adapt and accelerate its growth plans as stay-at-home orders created a surge in demand for home services. Angi needed a reliable and flexible technology partner more than ever.
Our Response
We collaborated with CTO Kulesh Shanmugasundaram and SVP of Engineering Amit Gulati to create a pool of MojoTech Engineers, Product Managers, Designers, and QA Engineers to meet Angi’s most important criteria: the ability to shift priorities from quarter to quarter and to minimize managerial burden on their directors.
From this pool a variety of teams were formed, each led by an experienced MojoTech Product Manager and Tech Lead. An Engineering Program Manager and Product Program Manager coordinated efforts across teams, worked with Angi directors to set priorities, and ensured Angi saw maximum value out of our partnership.
As quarterly priorities changed we helped identify high value work to take on, shifted teams to new workstreams, and adjusted the size and composition of teams to adapt to changes in needs, including creating hybrid MojoTech/Angi teams.
The Outcome
Six MojoTech teams have worked across a variety of initiatives to increase revenue and decrease expenses, including partnership integrations, a Next.js migration, and API upgrades.
