Catalyzr is a SaaS talent optimization platform that uses cognitive science to quantify a person's potential for success for any role in a company.
They needed an exclusive development partner to translate business requirements into a production-grade platform — from architecture design and database schema through frontend, backend, unit testing, cloud deployment, and ongoing support. Key requirements included reusable component architecture, custom integration with the TAO open-source e-testing platform via LTI, ad-hoc reporting for business users, and a highly secured multi-tenant environment.
Approach
Periscope Labs served as the exclusive development partner from concept and MVP to the final shippable product.
We delivered a detailed architecture design with significant emphasis on security, performance and scalability, availability and recoverability, and operational efficiency. End-to-end AWS infrastructure was provisioned (VPC, EC2, Load Balancer, S3, KMS, RDS, IAM). The application was built with .NET Core and Angular, with database encryption, application-layer encryption, client-specific keys, and encrypted communication across every channel. We developed custom LTI integration between Catalyzr and TAO, secure API endpoints for data access, batch processing pipelines, and an ad-hoc reporting engine allowing business users to build their own reports on demand.
Outcome
Delivered a production-ready, highly-secured SaaS platform serving enterprise clients across North America.
The engagement proved that a Dhaka-based engineering team could operate at the speed and quality of a local team — with architecture-first discipline and full lifecycle ownership.
“It never felt like working with an offshore team. Periscope Labs operated as a true extension of our product team.”
