Migration to a Cloud-Native Node.js Platform for Enhanced Scalability and Development Efficiency

The client, a peer-to-peer carsharing platform, is experiencing rapid growth that exposes limitations in their existing legacy monolithic architecture. They face operational challenges due to siloed development teams, time zone differences, and language barriers, which hinder their ability to scale efficiently and accelerate time-to-market for new features. The current system also lacks modern tooling to improve developer experience and code quality.
