Challenges in Scaling and Modernizing an Online Education Platform

The client faces difficulties in scaling its engineering infrastructure to support increasing demand for online courses, enhancing user experience across multiple devices, and expanding into new international markets. Additionally, sourcing skilled local developers with expertise in frontend technologies, particularly ReactJS, has been a challenge. Their existing platform needs modernization to handle a surge in content consumption, improve payment and user onboarding processes, and enable targeted global outreach.

About the Client

A rapidly growing online learning platform seeking to expand its global reach, enhance frontend capabilities, and improve user engagement and revenue streams.

Objectives for Modernizing and Scaling the Online Education System

  • Scale engineering capacity rapidly to support increased global demand, including doubling team size within two months during peak growth periods.
  • Modernize frontend infrastructure to improve performance, user engagement, and conversion rates.
  • Implement new functionalities for seamless payment processing, user onboarding, and content delivery across web and TV devices.
  • Enhance platform capabilities to support multiple languages and regional adaptations, preparing for international expansion.
  • Introduce insights-driven design and operational methodologies to continually optimize user experience and platform reliability.

Core Functional System Requirements for the Education Platform

  • Responsive web application with ReactJS/NextJS and Typescript for dynamic content delivery and high-performance user interfaces.
  • Native applications for Android and iOS, including Apple TV and Roku, to ensure content accessibility on diverse devices.
  • Modernized payment infrastructure supporting multiple regional payment methods and currencies.
  • Localization modules enabling content and UI adaptation for diverse linguistic audiences.
  • User engagement features such as peer-to-peer incentives, recommendations, and personalized content experiences.
  • Backend integration with cloud services (e.g., AWS, Heroku) for scalable hosting, deployment, and DevOps management.
  • Data analytics and operational dashboards for tracking platform usage, engagement, and growth metrics.
