**Project description**

**Business**

 The client is a New York based real estate company (with 300+ employees) that buys single family houses in bulk (10,000+ houses), maintains them, rents them out and then sells when there's the right time. 

They use several external software services for different stages of their buy-rent-sell process. For example: 
Monday.com
Box.com
Qualia.com
Spruce.co

**Scope** 

 They build software for their internal use and LeanSquad is one of a couple of their software development vendors. Specifically, we are responsible for building integrations between their external services. For example, Monday.com and Spruce.co. From a very simplified view, we create AWS lambdas to handle webhooks from one external service and send data to another external service communicating via AWS EventBridge.

**Tech stack**

Hosting: AWS.
Languages / Frameworks: Angular, Node.js, Serverless.
Databases: PostgreSQL, DynamoDB.
