We keep the team small and the outcomes big. Drop us into a complex problem—architecture, security, or delivery—and we’ll leave your people stronger than we found them.
System design, domain modeling, cloud architecture, performance and cost optimization. Clear diagrams, pragmatic patterns.
Senior engineers who code. Short‑term delivery sprints, refactors, integrations, and instrumentation with real momentum.
Threat modeling, secure‑by‑default patterns, code & cloud posture reviews, and practical remediation plans.
Workshops on architecture fundamentals, defensive engineering, and incident‑ready operations. Built for busy teams.
Tracing, metrics, logs. We wire up actionable telemetry so you can see production clearly—and sleep better.
Independent assessments of systems, vendors, and processes with crisp reports and prioritized actions.
Names withheld by NDA. The results speak for themselves.
Re‑architected ingestion pipelines, right‑sized databases, and implemented autoscaling with SLOs.
Introduced caching & idempotent APIs; added distributed tracing to burn down hotspots.
Threat modeling, defense‑in‑depth review, and rollout of secret hygiene playbooks.
Fast to start. Low friction. Clear impact.
90‑minute deep dive to map goals, risks, and constraints. We outline a punchy plan.
1–4 weeks of focused architecture and hands‑on engineering with daily progress.
We hand over clear docs, diagrams, and a prioritized backlog your team can run with.
We run practical workshops and independent audits. Your team leaves with habits that stick and a roadmap that actually gets done.
We keep our core team intentionally small (3 senior engineers) and collaborate with trusted specialists. You get direct access to the people doing the work—no telephone game.
We’ve spent years in the trenches across finance, retail, manufacturing, and SaaS. We know how to ship value quickly and safely.
Tell us about your goals and constraints. We’ll suggest a sharp, low‑risk starting point.
