Working alongside the lead ruby architect, I was brought onboard to lead the refactoring of existing legacy services and break up the ruby on rails monolithic application into microservices. Significant emphasis was placed on code quality and it was achieved by implementing tools like rubocop, sorbet, rubycritic, reek. Test coverage was nothing short of 100% where we focused more on integration tests rather than plain unit tests.
