/ SERVICE 01 — CLOUD & DEVOPS

The boring infrastructure that makes everything else possible.

Embedded SREs and platform engineers, from your first Terraform module to a production-grade platform your own team can run when we leave.

/ WHAT WE DO

Four problems we keep solving.

1 · Lift & reshape, not lift & shift

Most "cloud migrations" are forklifts that end with a higher AWS bill. We rewrite the parts that benefit from cloud-native — autoscaling, managed data, eventing — and leave the rest alone until the business case is real.

2 · Platform that your team owns

A Kubernetes cluster only one consultant can run is a liability. We build with your engineers in the room, document as we go, and run a structured handoff in the last sprint. When we leave, your platform team owns the on-call.

3 · CI/CD that's actually fast

Deploy time is the lead indicator for every other engineering metric. We've taken 4-hour pipelines down to 6 minutes, and Friday-only releases up to 40+ deploys a week — without dropping the SLA.

4 · Cost & reliability discipline

FinOps and SRE are the same job from different angles. We instrument first, set SLOs that match your actual reliability needs, then cut cost where the data says it's safe.

/ THE FIRST 90 DAYS

Concrete, not consultative.

A cloud engagement isn't a deck and a roadmap. It's commits, infrastructure-as-code, and dashboards. Here's what shows up in your repo and your monitoring, week by week.

/ WK 01–02

Land & read

Two senior engineers in your Slack. Read every runbook. Map dependencies. First small PR by end of week one — usually a CI fix nobody wanted to touch.

/ WK 03–06

Foundation

Terraform skeleton, environment parity, the one observability gap that has everyone guessing in incidents. We set the SLOs.

/ WK 07–12

Real ground gained

The thing in your roadmap that's been blocked by infrastructure — shipped. With a runbook your team helped write.

/ STACK — TECHNOLOGIES WE LIVE IN

Senior on these, fluent on most others.

We don't pretend to be platform-agnostic. The list below is what our engineers run in production this quarter. Adjacent tools? Usually fine — ask.
