We mapped competitors to secure a handson leader—scaling teams and driving SaaS transformation
from legacy to AIpowered microservices.

The Challenge

A fast-paced product company needed a Head of Engineering to manage a team of 50+ and migrate their legacy architecture to a modern Microservices/AI-driven stack. The candidate needed to be a “Hands-on Leader” from a Tier-1 institute.

The Solution

We utilized Competitor Mapping, specifically targeting “Growth-Stage” startups that had recently gone through an IPO or acquisition. We focused on a candidate who had successfully scaled a product from 1.0 to 3.0.

The Result:

  1. Ratio: 5:2:1
  2. Timeline: Closed within 30 days of assignment.
  3. Success: The new leader reduced the product release cycle from 4 weeks to 1 week within their first 90 days.
