Let's face it, building a stellar remote product development team can feel like wrangling kittens – adorable, but oh-so-chaotic. Today's story features Nylas, a company that provides an email API that makes developers do happy dances (we've seen the videos, it's true), and how Upstack swooped in as the talent augmentation superhero!

Nylas' Challenge: Building a Remote Team Faster Than a Bat Outta You-Know-Where

Nylas had a need: a team to handle custom software development. The catch? They needed these developers to be remote ninjas – skilled, adaptable, and comfortable working across borders because, let's be honest, good code transcends geography.  Finding these devs quickly, especially with niche skill sets like Java, Python, Go, and Javascript, felt like searching for a four-leaf clover in a freshly mowed lawn.

Upstack to the Rescue with Lightning Fast Talent-Matching

Your friendly neighborhood talent matchmaker, Upstack, saved the day. Nylas reached out to us for help, and within three days, they had their first coding whiz on board!  That's the Upstack magic – a pre-vetted network of developers who are not only brilliant but also remote-ready. No wading through endless resumes or deciphering cryptic interview requests.

Since then, Upstack has helped Nylas assemble a team of 11 developers, each a master of their coding domain.  Java? Yep. Python? Absolutely. Go and Javascript? You betcha.

Don’t Take Our Word For It

Nylas' CEO raves: “Upstack has been phenomenal! They found us the perfect talent, and fast! We wouldn't be where we are today without their awesome team."

Nylas API v3 Launch

The amazing development team built with Upstack's help wasn't just coding ninjas for everyday tasks. They were also instrumental in launching Nylas API v3, a game-changer that boasts better performance and tighter security. This new version means faster, more reliable access for users – basically, it's the Usain Bolt of email APIs.  Learn more about this coding masterpiece.
