Project Description
UserAcquisition.com is a tight-knit group of Marketers & Engineers specializing in building customizable marketing tools for enterprise-level clients. Based out of Los Angeles, CA they've built a reputation for delivering best-in-class marketing technology solutions.
UserAcquisition.com works with some of the largest advertisers in the world including Warner Brothers, Wargaming, Riot Games, Scopely, and Transunion. To keep up with demand our client is extending the engineering team in Kyiv to build more complex products.

Alpha.io is a low-code platform for creating interactive and actionable data-heavy internal applications.

The problem
Internal teams have unnecessarily tedious workflows. They require an excessive number of disparate platforms to merge data and perform daily UA work. These platforms include: analytics tools like Looker and Tableau external and internal APIs, databases and data warehouses, (the dreaded) spreadsheets. This is time consuming and inefficient. We think there’s a better way.

The solution
With Alpha, users define a data model that describes their data across multiple data sources. Data is joined together and presented in tables and visualizations in Alpha Applications. Data sources are bidirectional, meaning that users can modify their data (update a row in a database, make an API call, etc) directly within the application. Any actions a user takes in an application can be automated into a workflow.

The tech
Alpha is designed to enable performant, well-designed, and flexible applications. We use React and Apollo on the front end and Node and Apollo on the backend. We’ve found that the declarative nature of React and GraphQL work great with data-heavy applications, and our front end and backend architecture enable robust and flexible custom integrations and applications. We use TypeScript across the stack to increase productivity and reduce errors.
