"Lars helped us solve some major scaling challenges with our realtime billing system. We onboarded him into our team via Slack for a high touch targeted engagement which worked amazing well. Lars was able to quickly dig into our complex code base aided by our team. He was able to provide fast and actionable solutions which we could implement immediately. Overall this netted us *an 80% improvement in performance* in data access alone. At the end of the engagement we had a roadmap of items or game plan for improvement that could be actioned as needed. We will be getting Lars back in for more engagements as the product evolves. Lars provided the team with a great sounding board for technical implementation problems as well, which went above and beyond his contracted work."
