MBI builds WINPACCS, a cloud-based platform serving international aid organizations across 120+ countries. The stack is predominantly Microsoft (.NET, SQL Server, Azure, Kubernetes) with a notable migration underway from PostgreSQL—suggesting a consolidation toward SQL Server as the primary data layer. Hiring is engineering-heavy (28 engineers vs. 8 ops, 2 product) and skews junior-to-mid, with accelerating velocity; combined with active projects in cloud architecture modernization and .NET 6 development, this signals a scaling phase focused on platform stability and infrastructure maturity rather than feature expansion.
