Challenge

The client needed a strong engineering team that could quickly understand a complex lending marketplace model, integrate seamlessly with the in-house team, and take ownership of building a new business vertical—mortgages—while operating in a heavily integrated, regulated environment

Solution

ZoolaTech ramped a Kyiv-based team and assumed ownership of technical solutions, production support, development, and recruitment. We built the mortgage vertical from scratch (pre-qualification data collection, rules engine, user dashboard, direct lender submissions), upgraded the personal loans vertical, and set up scalable infra with Kubernetes, CI/CD, monitoring/logging, and Kafka. 

Results

The platform became robust and scalable across multiple verticals. Borrowers can compare real refinance rates in ~3 minutes, and automated document collection (W2/1099/bank statements/tax records) plus digitized upload/sign-off significantly reduced application time versus offline workflows, supporting continuous expansion and integrations.
