Staffing industry software platform serving 10,000+ companies globally
Bullhorn operates a multi-tenant SaaS platform for staffing and recruitment firms, built on SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB, deployed across AWS, Azure, and GCP. The company faces recurring infrastructure challenges—24/7 availability requirements, database performance tuning, and backup/recovery workflows dominate their project and pain-point lists—typical of a 25-year-old platform managing mission-critical workflows for thousands of tenants. Sales-led hiring (6 sales roles vs. 3 engineering) and geographic expansion into APAC signal growth-phase scaling rather than technical rebuilds.
