Consulting

We work alongside your team or provide end-to-end project delivery. Here are some examples of the work we do.

Software engineering

Build applications, extend existing software and maintain the code your team works with.

When you might need help

  • Software that is hard to change, or slow and risky to release.
  • An internal tool or product feature that needs to be built or extended.
  • Code that people depend on, with few tests and little documentation.

What we do

  • Design and build applications and internal tools.
  • Improve, refactor, and maintain existing codebases.
  • Add tests, documentation, and a repeatable release process.
  • Review architecture and code, and explain the trade-offs.

Cloud & infrastructure

Set up and maintain cloud environments, manage costs and investigate reliability issues.

When you might need help

  • Environments that are hard to reproduce, recover, or hand over.
  • Cloud costs that grow without a clear reason.
  • Outages, slow systems, or alerts nobody trusts.

What we do

  • Review and set up cloud environments and accounts.
  • Describe infrastructure as code, so it can be rebuilt and reviewed.
  • Set up monitoring, backups, and recovery, and test them.
  • Investigate outages, performance issues and cloud costs.

Platforms & integration

Connect systems, build APIs and automate the transfer of data between tools.

When you might need help

  • Data that people have to copy manually between systems.
  • Integrations that break whenever one side changes.
  • An existing platform that should be extended rather than replaced.

What we do

  • Design and build integrations, APIs, and data flows.
  • Work inside the platforms and vendor tools you already use.
  • Replace manual hand-offs between tools with dependable automated ones.
  • Document how the pieces connect, so your team can maintain them.

AI & automation

Automate repetitive tasks and integrate AI into workflows and applications.

When you might need help

  • Repetitive work that might be automated.
  • An open question about whether AI fits a workflow or product.
  • A pilot that never made it into daily use.

What we do

  • Review a workflow and identify tasks that could be automated.
  • Build small pilots that can be tested against real work.
  • Integrate suitable models or services into existing workflows and products.
  • Evaluate the results and decide what needs to change before wider use.

Delivery & operations

Work on deployment pipelines, monitoring and the day-to-day running of systems.

When you might need help

  • Releases that are slow, manual or unreliable.
  • Systems that nobody quite feels responsible for.
  • A team that needs additional technical expertise.

What we do

  • Set up build and deployment pipelines.
  • Operate and maintain systems, and improve them as you go.
  • Write runbooks and improve how incidents are handled.
  • Work with your team, document the work and hand it over.
