what we
build, and
hand back.
every engagement ends with the work in your repositories, a runbook next to it, and people on your side who have already run it.
cloud
infrastructure.
we design, build and run infrastructure on amazon web services, microsoft azure and google cloud - accounts laid out for isolation, networks that hold up under failure, and a bill someone can explain line by line.
we express everything we touch as code and scope every account. the cloud bill gets treated like a production metric, because it is one.
- landing-zone design and multi-account setup with guardrails.
- reproducible terraform modules, reviewed and documented.
- cost-attribution, rightsizing, and finops baselines.
- tested disaster recovery and backup strategies.
containerisation
& orchestration.
we build kubernetes platforms that teams deploy to without filing a ticket - containers built the same way every time, clusters that scale and recover on their own, and a deploy path your developers can read.
clusters should be boring and upgrades routine. we bake in the patterns - declarative config, progressive delivery, policy, secrets - so developers deploy without thinking about them and on-call stops dreading them.
- hardened kubernetes clusters with enforced policies.
- gitops with argo cd, with drift detected and reported.
- helm charts and kustomize overlays, team-owned.
- migration paths off legacy compute.
continuous integration
& continuous deployment.
we build the pipelines that take a commit to production - tested, built, signed and rolled out the same way every time, with no manual step between a merged pull request and a running release.
we go for fast feedback, short builds, reproducible artifacts and a clear signal when something breaks, and we keep the yaml from turning into a museum.
- reusable ci workflows with tests, builds, and signing.
- cd strategies per environment with rollback.
- self-service pipeline library for teams.
- build-time cost and duration tracking.
software
development.
we write the software a platform needs around it - internal tooling, command-line interfaces, backend services and integrations, kept small, tested and documented well enough to hand over.
most platform work needs glue - a cli to bridge two systems, a webhook receiver, a small service that puts your team's process in code. we write that glue with a small surface area and tests around it, so the next person can own it.
- internal cli tools in go, replacing runbooks.
- production-ready backend services and apis.
- sdks and integrations for existing saas tools.
- codebases with docs, tests, and runbooks.
application & system
observability.
we wire up metrics, logs and traces across your systems and applications, so a problem shows up on a dashboard or in an alert before it shows up in a support ticket.
a dashboard nobody opens during an incident is wallpaper. we design observability around the questions your team asks at 2am - are users affected, what changed, and where is it failing - and set alerts on thresholds that mean something.
- prometheus + grafana dashboards for services and clusters.
- structured logs and tracing via opentelemetry.
- slos with error budgets and burn-rate alerts.
- runbooks linked directly from alerts.
how an
engagement runs.
our engagements are small and written down: we name the problem, scope the work and ship in the open. a typical one looks like this, adjusted to fit.
- 01 week 0
scope.
a single written brief: what we'll change, what we won't, and how we'll know it worked. no 40-slide decks.
- 02 week 1 - 2
design.
architecture, iac modules, pipeline shapes, and runbooks drafted in your repo, reviewed by your engineers.
- 03 week 2 - n
build.
we implement in small, reviewable pull requests, each one tested, documented and deployable on its own.
- 04 final week
hand over.
a walkthrough with your engineers, a runbook, and a short report on what's left for the roadmap.
