RecruiterWEB: end-to-end delivery and operations for a recruitment website platform

RecruiterWEB is a UK-based SaaS website platform built for recruitment agencies. Since 2004, it has powered websites for agencies of every size, from startups to enterprise-scale businesses. We started working together more than 14 years ago, and today we run its technical delivery end to end as its strategic technology partner: pre-sales, UI/UX design, development, testing, production infrastructure and L2/L3 support.

Executive summary

For over a decade, RecruiterWEB and our team have worked side by side. RecruiterWEB sets the strategy, leads the product vision and manages customer relationships. Our dedicated team takes projects from pre-sales demo through launch and ongoing support, and runs the infrastructure behind them.

‍

We have developed and delivered 400+ websites. With delivery, infrastructure and technical support in one stable team, RecruiterWEB can focus on strategy and sales and grow without building a delivery organization of its own.

The challenge

Building full-cycle delivery

Each sale started a delivery cycle: design, development, testing, launch and long-term support of the agency’s website. RecruiterWEB focused on strategy, product vision and customer relationships. Delivery had to be built almost from scratch alongside the business, with every discipline working as one team.

Predictable delivery for a continuous flow of projects

Projects ranged from websites built on ready-made templates to fully custom-designed ones, with effort that differed roughly tenfold. They arrived in a continuous flow, with busy periods and quiet ones. Clients expected the result when they needed it or when it was agreed, so delivery had to stay predictable regardless of the type of project or the current workload.

Operating hundreds of live websites

Running this portfolio on dedicated servers in a data center meant continuous monitoring, backup management, updates and incident handling.

Evolving the product while delivering sites

Alongside client projects, the RecruiterWEB product kept evolving: new features, process improvements and technical upgrades. This work drew on the same people and had to be planned together with day-to-day delivery.

Continuity over the years

The product and the client websites evolved over many years. Knowledge of them had to stay with the team rather than with individual engineers, so staff changes would not affect delivery or support.

The solution & engineering approach

Delivered scope

Dedicated team

Three developers, a UX designer, DevOps engineers and a delivery manager, working as an extension of the RecruiterWEB team.

Delivery management

Delivery built from scratch and run to this day. It takes the output of the client’s sales process as input, namely the requirements for the website the customer wants, and carries each project end to end: design, development, testing, release, set-up of the live site and ongoing support.

Product engineering

RecruiterWEB’s core product kept current: updated functionality, new features and a refreshed design, with product management support in shaping the roadmap. Technical oversight of the product, covering its architecture and the technologies it runs on, to meet functional and non-functional requirements.

Infrastructure and support

CI/CD pipelines, environments and administration of the servers that host the websites, with monitoring and backups. L2/L3 technical support for the client’s team and its customers, including change requests on live sites.

Technical architecture

Technology stack

Next.js, TypeScript, Bootstrap, Java, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, Jenkins.

Delivery methodology & governance

Engagement model

A dedicated team acting as the client's technology department under a long-term Strategic Technology Partner relationship.

Team & roles

The team includes three developers, a UX designer, DevOps engineers, and a delivery manager.

Sprint-based delivery

Work is organized in two-week sprints with Scrum practices adapted to our context: sprint planning with the whole team, daily stand-ups, and a demo and retrospective at the end of each sprint.

Backlogs & priorities

The team manages two backlogs, one for the evolution of the product and one for delivering websites to clients. Tasks come from the client, and sprint priorities are agreed jointly.

Key Business Outcomes

One partner for the full delivery cycle

Design, development, testing, infrastructure and support are handled by one team, so nothing is lost between vendors or between sales and delivery. RecruiterWEB focuses on strategy and sales without building a delivery organization of its own.

Predictable delivery

Whether a client needs a quick template-based launch or a fully custom build, the result is delivered when it was agreed. Delivery stays predictable through busy and quiet periods, alongside a steady flow of change requests on live sites.

Reliable operation of hundreds of websites

Hundreds of live websites run on dedicated servers that we administer, with monitoring, backups and L2/L3 support in place.

A product that keeps evolving

RecruiterWEB's core product stays current: new features, a refreshed design and up-to-date architecture and technologies are delivered alongside client projects.

A long-term partnership

For more than 14 years we have been RecruiterWEB's Strategic Technology Partner, developing and delivering 400+ websites and evolving the product behind them.
