Procom helped a leading North American financial institution, operating across 180 countries, source elite IT talent quickly, on time, and within budget.
The client required app issue resolutions and enterprise-level incident handling. They also sought to reduce manual processes and strengthen communication between regions, all while maintaining strict security standards.
To get this done, the client needed proficient developers with expertise in advanced tech stacks. They also needed specialists who could streamline deployment workflows and enhance overall system reliability.
With fierce competition for top talent and highly skilled IT professionals in short supply, Procom needed to bridge the talent gap.
The client faced complex technical challenges across infrastructure, trading systems, deployment, and support. Each function demanded niche expertise, immediate impact, and zero room for error.
Here’s how Procom sourced IT specialists within unique domains:
Client challenge: The client needed to quickly secure its infrastructure while meeting strict compliance requirements. Sourcing a Network Security Analyst with advanced firewall, access control, and enterprise security experience proved difficult due to market demands and regulatory constraints.
Procom’s solution: Procom placed a Senior Network Security Analyst with expertise in configuring Palo Alto and Checkpoint firewalls, managing Cisco access controls, and executing network segmentation strategies. The candidate met all compliance standards and required no ramp-up time.
Outcome: The placement strengthened the client’s security posture, improved compliance, reduced infrastructure downtime, and accelerated the rollout of security protocols.
Client challenge: Procom’s client sought to reduce the downtime of its critical financial trading applications and infrastructure. To accomplish this, they required Financial and Trading Systems Analysts capable of providing quick incident resolutions and automating processes while supporting global teams. These specialists also needed to be capable of performing under the pressure of real-time financial operations.
Procom’s solution: Procom placed two experienced Application Support Specialists with expertise in UNIX, Oracle, and equities middle-office systems. One focused on enterprise-scale financial application support, while the other managed Level 2 support for trading platforms. Both improved incident handling, communication, and system monitoring across global teams.
Outcome: Manual workload dropped by 30%, trading app downtime fell by 25%, and incident response times improved. The result was greater system stability, better team coordination, and increased operational confidence across critical applications.
Client challenge: Our client faced slow deployments, poor system visibility, and difficulty managing distributed environments. Inefficient workflows, limited monitoring, and a lack of automation were impacting reliability and slowing down project delivery.
Procom’s solution: Procom placed a DevOps Engineer with deep experience in automation, orchestration, and system monitoring. The engineer implemented CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, set up Grafana and Prometheus for real-time monitoring, and used Kubernetes to streamline environment management.
Outcome: Deployment cycles became faster, system downtime dropped, and testing efficiency improved. Teams gained better visibility, stronger collaboration, and delivered more stable releases across multiple projects.
Client challenge: The client needed Full Stack Developers who could ramp up fast and contribute immediately to a high-priority enterprise project. The role required strong skills in Java, Spring Boot, MongoDB, and containerized development tools, along with prior experience in agile teams and financial systems.
Procom’s solution: Procom placed two Full Stack Developers with deep expertise in Java/J2EE, Spring Boot, MongoDB, GIT, OpenShift, and Docker. Both had direct experience working in banking environments and were able to integrate seamlessly with the project team.
Outcome: The developers began delivering high-quality, scalable code from day one. Their domain knowledge reduced onboarding time, increased development speed, and kept the project on track with business goals.
