About the Project
A prominent global sports and entertainment company that manages high-profile events like Olympic Games and major sports tournaments, faced the challenge of scaling their development capabilities while maintaining efficiency and quality.
The company needed to expand operations following a strategic acquisition, managing multiple simultaneous projects across different time zones. With events like the Olympics in their portfolio, the stakes were extraordinarily high, requiring seamless coordination and consistent delivery.
It began with just two frontend developers. Within three years, the team grew from 2 to 36 specialists – a staggering 1,700% increase.

Team Roles & Setup
Our approach to resource deployment centered on flexibility and specialization. The team’s structure evolved to include roles like Technical Leads and Release Managers. This allowed us to tackle complex tech challenges efficiently. We maintain a core group of 10-15 senior engineers who provide technical leadership while supporting rapid scaling during peak event periods.
Cut Administrative Costs
By using Microsoft tools and taking full control of HR functions, we reduced administrative costs. Teams in the US, Mexico, Europe, and the Philippines maintained smooth workflows through efficient communication and needed only about three hours of daily interaction to deliver projects effectively.
Trust Our Recruitment
The client initially participated in interviews but gradually transitioned to trusting our judgment as we consistently delivered high-quality candidates. We prioritized engineers with strong English skills and confidence to work as equals with the client’s team.
The Legacy
We created a sustainable model for delivering world-class sporting events while maintaining peak operational efficiency. Like any great sports story, it proved that with the right team, strategy, and execution, extraordinary growth isn’t just possible – it’s inevitable.
