Engineering
Impact.
Don’t take our word for it. See how fast-growing companies use Athen to scale infrastructure, launch products, and reduce technical debt.
NexPay Global
NexPay needed to migrate their legacy monolithic payment gateway to a Rust-based microservices architecture to handle Black Friday traffic spikes. Local hiring was taking too long.
The Challenge
Existing Java monolith was crashing under 500 RPS. Internal team was maxed out on maintenance.
The Athen Solution
Deployed a specialized pod of 3 Senior Rust Engineers and 1 Tech Lead. The team integrated into NexPay’s Slack and Jira within 48 hours and began refactoring critical paths immediately.
MediScout
MediScout required a HIPAA-compliant RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipeline to process patient records securely. They lacked specialized Vector DB expertise.
The Challenge
Handling sensitive PII data while leveraging LLMs required deep knowledge of data sanitization and vector search optimization.
The Athen Solution
Athen provided a Principal AI Engineer and two Senior Backend Developers. They built a secure, air-gapped pipeline for embedding generation and retrieval.
GlobalFreight Corp
A Fortune 500 logistics firm needed to modernize a 15-year-old on-premise Java system to the cloud to reduce operational costs and improve tracking visibility.
The Challenge
Costly on-premise hardware maintenance and inability to scale during peak shipping seasons. Internal IT was resistant to change.
The Athen Solution
We deployed a “Tiger Team” of 10 engineers to work alongside internal staff. We implemented a strangler-fig pattern to slowly replace legacy modules with serverless functions.
