Product Engineering
Beyond the Code
Product Engineering goes beyond just code. It involves all of the processes and tools get a product running and keep it moving. This includes deployment of fixes and updates, backups, and the careful watch of every intricate component. Every product must be built on an infrastructure that is stable, scalable, and cost-effective. This infrastructure could be cloud based, on-premise or both. Model Rocket builds every project as a cloud-native container designed to run anywhere. We have a few tricks up our sleeve that allow projects to also seamlessly and even simultaneously run in common micro-service systems like AWS Lambda or Google Compute and transition back and forth without any code changes. Our team will monitor, maintain, and ensure the product is always available and running like a well oiled-machine.
The Keys to Success
Focus on the Job to be Done
Regardless of how big or small your company is, your products are "hired" to do a job for your customers. In order to stand out from the competition, it has to do its job better than anyone else. The first step when developing any product is to understand what what we are building. When your customer seeks out your product, it is critical to understand the job they to be done and how will it help them accomplish it. Most importantly we need to know what experiences the customer needs and expects? Our team will step you through our product development approach and apply our decades of experience to launch your product into orbit.

Data is your most valuable asset. For many businesses the challenges is two-fold, how do you best represent your data to your clients, and how can you utilize it to exceed their expectations. Science doesn’t stop at the database, it flows all the way to the end user themselves. Model Rocket has deep experience in building concise data models, intuitive user interfaces, and powerful machine learning systems. We have built time-series platforms with scalability to millions of IoT devices.
We can help you with:
- Data modeling and analysis
- Date lake creation and processing
- Time-series data platforms (i.e. TimescaleDB, InfluxDB, etc)
- Machine learning platforms (i.e TensorFlow, Keras, AWS SageMaker)
- Data layering and caching (i.e. Redis, ElasticCache)
