Your platform team — as a service

Production-ready platforms.
Security-first infrastructure.

We design, build, and run the mature platform you can't yet justify a full-time team for — production-grade, secure, and cheaper to run than what you've got. A senior platform team, without the headcount.

Who we help

Different starting points, same missing piece

New build, legacy mess, or scaling too fast — what's missing is a platform team. That's us, without the headcount.

New build

A product to ship, and no platform under it

You're racing to launch and infrastructure is an afterthought — until it isn't. We embed with your team and build it properly the first time: the cloud setup, the security, the pipelines. You ship on something real, not free tiers and duct tape.

  • Zero-to-production build
  • Launch-ready security
  • Built to last
Outgrowing your setup

The setup that got you here is now what slows you down

Hand-managed EC2, Lambda sprawl, no autoscaling, and a bill that climbs every quarter. We modernize the platform — and the spend comes down with it — so growth stops meaning a rewrite.

  • Modernize off legacy patterns
  • Cut cloud spend
  • Scale without rewrites
Scaling fast

Growing faster than your infrastructure can keep up

Your engineers should be shipping product, not getting paged at 2am. We stand up the layer that lets you scale calmly — autoscaling, observability, security, the tooling your team actually wants — so the next traffic spike is a non-event.

  • Autoscaling that holds
  • Observability before customers notice
  • Tooling your team will use
The cost of standing still

Old infrastructure doesn't fail loudly. It bleeds.

In cloud spend you can't account for. In engineers stuck on plumbing instead of product. In the outage that lands at the worst possible time. Same story with code shipped fast and never hardened.

The full platform, not just the parts that compile

We build, secure, and run production infrastructure end to end. Take the whole platform, or just the piece you're missing.

01

Zero-to-production builds

Design and ship the whole platform — infra, CI/CD, security — for teams starting from a prototype.

02

Cloud architecture & migration

Zero-downtime moves to AWS or Azure, with an architecture built for where you're headed, not where you were.

03

Kubernetes & autoscaling

Containerization, EKS/AKS, and autoscaling groups that absorb traffic instead of falling over under it.

04

Infrastructure as Code & CI/CD

Terraform, Packer, and pipelines that turn two-day deploys into fifteen-minute ones.

05

Security & compliance

Vulnerability remediation, least-privilege IAM, and SOC 2 / PCI readiness — audits you can actually pass.

06

Observability & on-call

Tracing, metrics, alerting, and runbooks so you see problems before your customers do.

07

Performance & cost optimization

Caching, CDN, right-sizing — measurable speedups and a smaller monthly bill.

08

AI-generated code remediation

Untangle the AI spaghetti: fix the errors, close the vulnerabilities, add the tests that were never written.

Approach

Build it. Modernize it. Run it.

We build your platform — and we don't leave when it goes live. Most engagements grow into an ongoing partnership: your platform team, on call, for a fraction of the cost of hiring one.

01

Build

We scope it, build it, and hand it over working — the platform, the pipelines, the security — documented well enough that your team can run it without us. Fixed scope, clear deliverables, no surprises.

02

Modernize

We find what's costing you — overprovisioned instances, legacy patterns, manual deploys — and fix it. The savings show up on your next bill, and the platform stops fighting you every time you grow.

03

Run

Production doesn't clock out, so we don't vanish after launch. A set block of hours a month: we're on the pager, we triage, we escalate, we own the deploy cycle, and we make sure the same incident doesn't happen twice.

Not sure which fits?

The work

Re-architected, not patched

Most of what we do is under NDA. Here's one engagement, anonymized — the kind of before-and-after we're built for.

Case study · Platform build AI-generated codebase → production platform on AWS

An app that wouldn't even run, rebuilt into a platform its team ships on daily

The product was built fast with AI-generated code and couldn't ship — it wouldn't run reliably on the host it started on. Hundreds of compiler errors, heavy duplication, a single monolithic repo, security holes, and no real infrastructure underneath it. We were brought in to make it production-grade — and we're still building with them today.

What we built

Architecture

Broke a single monolithic repository into roughly a dozen focused services and Lambda utilities — background workers, dead-letter-queue handlers, the pieces a real system needs — each deployable on its own.

Security & identity

A standalone authentication service on Keycloak wired into the main app, a multi-account AWS isolation model, and 10DLC registration for SMS verification. Security-first throughout, closing the vulnerabilities the AI-generated code left behind.

Delivery & quality

A full CI/CD pipeline with SonarQube quality gates, plus guardrails that let non-engineers ship code safely with AI-assisted workflows — product people contributing without putting production at risk.

Reliability & operations

Grafana observability and PagerDuty on-call so problems surface and get owned. Tokenized-card payments, ID verification, and a Kubernetes migration are scoped and underway.

The product went from something that wouldn't run to a platform its team builds on every week — and we didn't hand it off and leave. We're still their platform team.

Advisory

You need someone who's done it before

Not every problem is a full engagement. We advise founders and teams on the calls that are expensive to get wrong: architecture and cloud strategy, what to build next, how your product and site should evolve. Senior judgment on tap, without signing up for a project.

FAQ

Straight answers

Who do you actually work with?

Software teams that need production infrastructure they don't have in-house — founders shipping a first product, teams outgrowing the setup that got them started, and companies scaling faster than their infrastructure can handle.

Can you take over a mess we've already made?

That's most of what we do. AI-generated code that won't ship, a monolith that's painful to change, infrastructure nobody fully understands anymore — we untangle it and turn it into something you can build on.

What happens after the build is done?

Most builds and modernizations roll into an ongoing partnership — a set block of hours each month for incident response, deploys, and the day-to-day of keeping production healthy. You get an on-call team without hiring one.

Will you work with our existing engineers?

Almost always. We embed alongside your team, leave behind clean documentation and tooling, and make sure you can run what we build. The goal is to make your team stronger, not dependent on us.

What's your stack?

Primarily AWS, with Azure where it fits. Kubernetes (EKS/AKS), Terraform, and the full infrastructure-as-code toolchain. We go deep on a focused set rather than dabble in everything.
