Software rescue
The Challenge
Broken build, missing docs
The previous partner had left; CI was red and secrets were scattered. The operator still had to serve customers.
Our Solution

Stabilise first, features second
Repository cleaned, dependencies raised, smoke tests for core flows. Security-related updates followed; branching with reviews introduced.
