Impaciente

How a healthcare compliance platform built in 2016 still serves 8 clinics across Chileβ€”with long-term reliability, no rewrites, and no pivot anxiety.

8 clinics8 yearsReliable opsComplianceMeteor.js
Challenge

Chilean healthcare law requires strict patient complaint tracking. Paper fails. Generic tools don't understand compliance.

Approach

Built domain-specific SaaS with Meteor.js/MongoDB. Real-time workflows, deadline alerts, compliance reporting.

Outcome

8 clinics, 8 years in production. Still running on original codebase. Proof that boring tech + domain knowledge wins.

Coffee? Collaboration? Just want to nerd out about docs?

I'm always down to chat about frontend architecture, developer experience, or why your commit messages should be essays.
