Hire DDD Experts | Nearshore Software Development

Domain-Driven Design (DDD) is an approach to software development for complex needs by connecting the implementation to an evolving model. It's about placing the business domain at the heart of your software and creating a shared understanding between technical and domain experts. You need an expert who can use the principles of DDD to build software that truly meets the needs of your business and can evolve as your business evolves. Our vetting process, powered by Axiom Cortex™, finds engineers who are masters of DDD. We test their ability to collaborate with domain experts, to model a complex domain, and to implement that model in clean, maintainable code.

Is your software a poor reflection of your actual business?

The Problem

When developers don't understand the business domain, they build software that is a poor fit for the business's needs, leading to a system that is complex, difficult to use, and a drag on the business.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We vet for engineers who are experts in collaborating with domain experts to create a rich, shared understanding of the business domain. They must demonstrate the ability to use techniques like event storming to explore the domain and to create a ubiquitous language that is shared by everyone.

Proof: Software that Accurately Models the Business
Is your codebase a 'big ball of mud' that is impossible to change?

The Problem

A codebase that doesn't have clear boundaries and a well-defined architecture can quickly become a 'big ball of mud' that is difficult to understand, maintain, and evolve.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our engineers are proficient in the strategic and tactical patterns of DDD. They are vetted on their ability to use patterns like Bounded Contexts, Aggregates, and Entities to create a clean, modular, and maintainable codebase that can evolve with your business.

Proof: Clean, Modular, and Evolvable Architecture
Is communication between your developers and business experts broken?

The Problem

If developers and business experts speak different languages, it leads to misunderstandings, incorrect implementations, and a lot of wasted effort. The business requirements get 'lost in translation'.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our experts are masters of creating a Ubiquitous Language. We vet their ability to work with domain experts to create a shared, unambiguous vocabulary that is used in all conversations, documentation, and, most importantly, in the code itself, bridging the communication gap.

Proof: A shared Ubiquitous Language across business and tech
Are you struggling to break down a complex system into manageable parts?

The Problem

Decomposing a large, complex system into smaller, independent microservices is a huge challenge. Choosing the wrong boundaries leads to a 'distributed monolith' that has all the downsides of microservices with none of the benefits.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We hire architects who use the strategic patterns of DDD to guide their microservice design. They are vetted on their ability to use Bounded Contexts to identify the natural seams in your business domain, leading to a set of loosely-coupled, highly-cohesive services that can be developed and deployed independently.

Proof: Microservice boundaries aligned with business domains

How We Measure Seniority: From L1 to L4 Certified Expert

We don't just match keywords; we measure cognitive ability. Our Axiom Cortex™ engine evaluates every candidate against a 44-point psychometric and technical framework to precisely map their seniority and predict their success on your team. This data-driven approach allows for transparent, value-based pricing.

Core Competencies We Validate for Domain-Driven Design (DDD)

Strategic DDD (Ubiquitous Language, Bounded Contexts)
Tactical DDD (Aggregates, Entities, Value Objects, Repositories)
Event Storming and domain modeling
Connecting DDD to a microservices architecture
Implementing DDD in code

Our Technical Analysis for Domain-Driven Design (DDD)

The Domain-Driven Design evaluation focuses on the ability to model and implement complex business software. Candidates are given a complex business domain and are required to lead a domain modeling session, demonstrating their ability to collaborate with non-technical stakeholders. A critical assessment is their ability to design a set of Bounded Contexts and to define the Aggregates and Entities within them. We also test their ability to translate that model into clean, well-structured code. Finally, we assess their understanding of how DDD relates to other architectural patterns like microservices and event sourcing.
