A CTO’s Guide to Choosing the Right Dev Agency
Crunch Time Criteria: Domain Understanding: Do they “speak your language”? A fintech partner should know KYC, PCI-DSS, etc.
Full-Stack Depth: React, Node, Python, DevOps pipelines—ensure bench strength.
Agile Mindset: Look for certified Scrum Masters and transparent sprint demos.
Quality Assurance: Automated testing, pair programming, and code reviews should be standard.
Communication Cadence: Daily stand-ups, weekly retrospectives, and real-time Slack access.
Example:
When FinTrust chose a Seattle-based dev agency with embedded QA engineers, their defect rate plummeted 60% in production releases.
