Kavak
Latin America's largest used car marketplace and the region's first automotive unicorn. Operating in Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, and beyond, Kavak has reinvented how people buy and sell cars in the region — offering a fully digital experience with inspections, financing, and warranties built in.
Challenge
- Support a hyper-growth operation scaling across multiple Latin American countries simultaneously, with engineering demand outpacing internal hiring capacity.
- Integrate seamlessly into existing squads working across a large, complex microservices codebase with strict quality and deployment standards.
- Ramp up quickly and deliver production-ready code from day one, with minimal onboarding time in a fast-paced environment.
Solution
FlyDevs embedded senior engineers directly into Kavak's product squads, contributing across the stack:
Squad embedding — developers integrated into existing cross-functional teams with no ramp-up friction.
Frontend development — built and improved key user-facing flows across the marketplace experience.
Backend microservices — contributed to the distributed services powering inventory, pricing, and transactions.
Multi-market support — adapted features and configurations to meet requirements across different country operations.
CI/CD compliance — followed Kavak's internal deployment standards and quality gates from day one.
Result
FlyDevs engineers shipped production code from week one, becoming a reliable extension of Kavak's internal teams. The collaboration helped Kavak scale its engineering capacity without sacrificing code quality or slowing down its aggressive growth roadmap.
