MobieTrain Platform
Cyrex partnered with MobieTrain to design and implement the full architecture of its gamified microlearning platform, delivering backend and frontend development, DevOps support, and building the company’s inaugural engineering team.
The Challenge
Building a Scalable Mobile-First Learning Ecosystem from Scratch
MobieTrain set out to modernize workplace training with a mobile-first microlearning application built around gamification. The objective was clear: deliver the right training content at the right time, across devices, at scale.
The complexity was equally clear.
MobieTrain required:
- A full product architecture from backend to frontend
- Cross-device and browser compatibility
- Scalable infrastructure capable of handling enterprise growth
- Integrated analytics and data handling
- A custom management CMS
- DevOps support and structured project management
- Recruitment and onboarding of a permanent in-house development team
With no existing development team in place, MobieTrain needed not just technical execution — but architectural leadership and operational guidance.
The Cyrex Solution
End-to-End Architecture & Product Development
Cyrex designed and implemented the complete ecosystem architecture for MobieTrain’s product stack.
The engagement included:
- Backend architecture design focused on scalability and maintainability
- Frontend development optimized for mobile-first progressive web app (PWA) delivery
- Integration of gamification mechanics
- Implementation of analytics and data pipelines
- Development of a customized management CMS
The platform was built to support high-volume usage while maintaining flexibility for future expansion.
DevOps & Project Governance
Beyond development, Cyrex provided:
- DevOps support and infrastructure setup
- Scrum-based project management
- Code quality standards and structured workflows
With no internal engineering team initially in place, Cyrex effectively operated as MobieTrain’s founding technical arm.
Recruitment & Team Handover
A critical component of the engagement involved assembling MobieTrain’s first in-house engineering team in Portugal.
Cyrex led the recruitment process and onboarded:
- 2 Senior Backend Developers (scalability & architecture focus)
- 2 Mid-Level Frontend Developers (React expertise)
- 1 Junior Frontend Developer (React foundation)
Each team member was integrated into the codebase under Cyrex’s supervision, ensuring adherence to coding standards and architectural principles.
For less experienced developers, Cyrex provided structured training to align them with the product stack.
In addition, Cyrex supported:
- HR and recruitment process setup
- Cultural onboarding
- Initial project management frameworks
- Assistance with establishing MobieTrain’s Portuguese legal entity
This ensured a seamless transition from external development partner to fully operational in-house team.
The Outcome
Scalable Platform & Sustainable Engineering Foundation
- Complete architecture implementation across backend and frontend
- A fully functional mobile-first microlearning platform
- DevOps and analytics infrastructure
- Successful recruitment and onboarding of a permanent development team
- Knowledge transfer enabling continued independent growth
