Treating a tee-time booking as a reservation system

Situation
A golf booking product planned a paid tier with automated slot booking, and the instinct was to build the feature first.
Task
Lead the product from architecture to launch, treating many users contending for one slot as the hard part.
Action
I framed it as a reservation system, put consistency over latency until payment clears and the slot is held, and deferred automated booking.
Result
The product launched on schedule to its user base, with the concurrency design in place before contention arrived.
