We specialize in hands-on engineering leadership for high-stakes platforms, when systems need to be fast, secure, and tolerant for changes in production.
Most teams come to us when
Releases are brittle or delayed
Infrastructure/DevOps work keeps getting postponed
AI/LLM features are scoped but not delivered
Internal staff are spread thin, or lack senior experience
A senior takes point, and others join as needed
A senior technical owner who drives architecture, delivery, and integration
Access to niche specialists only when needed (backend, infrastructure, DevSecOps, AI/ML
A working model designed for progress, not overhead
Typical work we do
Infrastructure & Delivery - Stabilizing infrastructure, automating delivery pipelines, and improving system visibility and reliability
Application Development - Refactoring or extending applications (frontend, backend, mobile), including distributed and event-driven architectures
Discovery & Recovery Sprints - Leading short, focused engagements to map delivery roadmaps or rescue critical, delayed projects
We work with modern technologies: Java, Python, C/C++, Go, JavaScript/TypeScript (Node.js), mobile (Android, iOS), and cloud-native tooling on AWS using IaC (aws cdk). Tech choices are shaped by context, not preference.
Engagement Model
We approach each engagement with a clear structure, focused on ownership, speed, and fit-for-purpose delivery.
Discovery - A short, focused engagement (typically 2 weeks) to review your system, identify risks, and deliver a clear roadmap. We often fix early blockers in this phase.
Build - A senior engineer takes point, driving delivery and making architectural decisions. We often operate in a fractional technical leadership capacity. This way we offer expert support without the overhead of hiring a full-time lead. When needed, we bring in specialists briefly to address specific areas.
Flexible and transparent - We work on a Time & Materials basis with regular reporting. This keeps scope honest and gives you space to adapt as things evolve.
Support - Once the work is done, we harden what we built, document it, and keep ownership of outcomes. We stay engaged on an ongoing, light-touch basis to operate, improve, and support the system as priorities evolve.
Examples of past work
Tier-1 Fintech: Designed, architected and automated multi-region cloud infrastructure with IaC and end-to-end CI/CD (build, test, security scan, deploy), enabling on-demand production releases with lead time of ~30 - 45 minutes and cutting cloud cost by ~15%
Telco: Designed and implemented core components of a resource management platform (resource inventory and catalogue interaction model), unblocking delivery of key features
Gaming: Developed protocols, libraries, and firmware for a custom scanning system used to generate synthetic models, forming a critical part of the core product technology
Transportation: Delivered a telemetry web app for EVs and charging points, giving fleet operators visibility into usage, charging behavior, and fleet health
Who we work best with
Good fit
Product-led teams facing technical complexity, delivery risk, scaling, integration challenges or limited engineering bandwidth
SMEs with active users and delivery bottlenecks
CTOs and Founders who need senior support without adding a team to manage
Not a fit
Early-stage projects without a defined scope or technical direction
Teams primarily looking to compare hourly development rates
Engagements expecting hands-off implementation with minimal collaboration
Let's talk
We usually start with a short technical call to get context, ask questions, and see whether we’re a fit to help.
