Fixing What Wasn’t Built to Scale

When a Mexican startup focused on employee wellness set out to improve its Android mobile app, it faced serious challenges.

Originally built by non-Android specialists, the app struggled with performance issues, lacked scalability, and had no solid architectural foundation for long-term growth. Technical debt was high, documentation was nonexistent, and timelines were tight. That’s when Brocsof

The company faced several critical challenges:

Unscalable architecture

The Android app had been developed by an iOS engineer using architecture patterns native to iOS, which made the codebase fragile, difficult to scale, and misaligned with Android best practices.

Technical debt & lack of documentation

There was no documentation about past implementations, making it hard to understand how certain features worked or why decisions had been made

Dysfunctional collaboration

The backend engineer often refused to make necessary updates, citing unfamiliarity with the codebase.

the solution

Scalable Android Development with Proactive Problem-Solving

Brocsoft found, screened, and delivered Senior Android Developers with the technical expertise needed to bring structure to the project and move it forward. Beyond the code, Brocsoft also took active steps to improve collaboration and project organization. A dedicated project manager was introduced to bring clarity and structure to the workflow, while a specialized iOS developer was brought in to take ownership of that platform, reducing friction and allowing the team to move faster.

Migrated static, hardcoded logic into dynamic, backend-driven configurations.

Resolved critical bugs, stabilized the app, and improved maintainability.

Our devs reviewed the backend logic and provided guidance even when it wasn’t part of the original scope.
