Performance Crisis to Acquisition: Saving a Key Customer Relationship

HealthcareHealthcare Workforce SaaS Startup
The problem

Challenge

Brought in as employee #5 to repair a broken relationship with the company’s largest customer. The application was built for smaller customers and couldn’t handle enterprise-scale volume: massive timeouts and API failures were destroying the partnership.

What I did

Approach

Re-engineered the application for enterprise-scale performance. Took a critical API endpoint from a 30-minute timeout down to under 15 seconds. Stabilized the platform to handle the volume and reliability demands of a major healthcare staffing operation.

Outcome

Result

Saved the customer relationship. The turnaround directly contributed to the company’s acquisition.
