Care.com Tech Stack

Marketplace platform connecting families with caregivers across child, senior, pet, and household care

Consumer Services Dallas, Texas 1,001–5,000 employees Privately Held

Care.com operates a multi-vertical care marketplace serving both families and caregivers, with B2B benefits distribution through Care for Business. The tech stack reveals an organization mid-modernization: heavy .NET/SQL Server legacy paired with newer microservices patterns (Go, GraphQL, gRPC, Docker), AWS infrastructure, and active Salesforce adoption. Pain points around consolidating to a cloud-native platform and modernizing web/mobile experiences map directly to the project list—telecom/contact center work on Amazon Connect, mobile platform rebuilds, and large-scale distributed system engineering—suggesting a multi-year infrastructure shift underway.
