Learnings and Initiatives for Continuously Developing Stock Exchange Services Agilely
summary
An agile team builds and operates CONNEQTOR, an electronic RFQ platform for the Tokyo Stock Exchange handling about ¥2000億 monthly for institutional investors. They apply Lean Startup and user‑centred design, pair programming and TDD, organize cross‑functional “balance teams” (designer, PM, developer), use feature flags instead of feature branches, maintain a defined “golden route” for extra QA, deliver small monthly releases while developing longer flows (e.g., a four‑month matched‑trades flow), and run bi‑monthly team health checks to sustain improvement.
