Challenge

Positron’s goal was to rapidly build a sophisticated SaaS platform designed to deliver high-performance scientific computing and machine learning capabilities on the cloud while providing a seamless user experience.

The Project

Positron, a funded stealth software company specializing in scientific computing and machine learning cloud infrastructure, sought an experienced partner to assist in building their Minimum Viable Product (MVP) and preparing for a successful Beta product launch. With a focus on innovative scientific computing, machine learning, and cloud-based solutions, Positron required a team with deep technical expertise in DevOps and modern software development. Collinear Group stepped in to provide the necessary resources, tools, and agile project management to meet their ambitious timeline and technical needs.

Positron’s goal was to rapidly build a sophisticated SaaS platform designed to deliver high-performance scientific computing and machine learning capabilities on the cloud while providing a seamless user experience. The company faced several challenges:

Challenges

Accelerating Time to Market

Positron needed to develop an MVP within a tight schedule to secure additional investor interest and support.

Complexity of the Platform

The platform required seamless integration of machine learning models, scientific computing algorithms, and cloud infrastructure, demanding expertise across various domains.

Ensuring Scalability

The product needed to be scalable from day one, with robust infrastructure to ensure continuous delivery and deployment of new features.

Solutions

CG Accelerate’sUI/UX, Software Development, DevOps, and Quality Assurance teams collaborated closely with Positron to execute a full-scale product development strategy from the ground up, focused on delivering the MVP and ensuring a smooth product launch.

Agile Development Process:

CG Accelerate employed agile methodologies to break down the complex product requirements into manageable sprints, ensuring that Positron’s MVP development stayed on schedule while maintaining high-quality code.

Custom Cloud Infrastructure

CG Accelerate’s cloud engineering team designed a scalable cloud infrastructure to support Positron’s unique computational needs, leveraging AWS and pivoting mid-way through the project to additionally support running workloads on the Massachusetts Open Cloud (MOC). We developed a full-scale Infrastructure asCode (IAC) deployment leveraging cloud tooling including AWS EKS, IAM, S3, RDS, and RedHat OpenShift to successfully deploy a multi-cloud solution meeting the evolving business requirements typical in a startup landscape.

DevOps Automation

To ensure rapid iteration, Collinear implemented CI/CD pipelines that automated testing, integration, and deployment. This significantly reduced the time required to ship new features and updates, enabling Positron to quickly respond to customer feedback.

CollinearGroup’s partnership with Positron resulted in the successful development and launch of a high-performance scientific computing and machine learning platform.

By leveraging CGAccelerate’s software engineering and DevOps expertise, Positron was able to meet its product goals on time, secure investor interest, and prepare for future growth. This collaboration exemplifies CG Accelerate’s ability to deliver complex, cutting-edge technology solutions tailored to a client’s specific needs while enabling rapid time to market and long-term scalability.

Technologies Used:

  • AWS Cloud Infrastructure
  • Kubernetes and OpenShift for Container Orchestration
  • GitHub for CI/CD Pipelines
  • Python library for scientific computing workloads
  • React/NodeJS for SaaS platform user interface and backend
