TK Elevator: scaling engineering capacity 10x without losing quality
How dedicated Venko R&D extension teams grew from two engineers to approximately twenty in 18 months — fully integrated with TKE's development organization.
Growing technology programs
TK Elevator required additional engineering capacity and specialized platform software expertise to support the growing demands of its technology development programs.
Scale fast, keep quality
The primary challenge was to rapidly expand engineering capacity while maintaining technical quality, effective communication, team continuity, and seamless integration with the client's existing development organization.
Dedicated R&D extension teams
Venko established dedicated R&D extension teams, initially comprising two engineers and progressively expanding to approximately 20 professionals over 18 months.
The engagement combined specialized expertise in platform software, hardware-software integration, and software testing with a collaborative, people-oriented management approach. Continuous feedback, close technical coordination, structured onboarding, and the adoption of AI-assisted engineering practices supported team productivity, knowledge retention, and consistent delivery quality.
From 2 to approximately 20 professionals in 18 months.
