Product engineering
New products and internal tools, built with a small, maintainable codebase. We cover the full path from data model and API design to the interface and release process.
Services
Four areas of work. Engagements are scoped individually — usually one to three months, with a clear end state and a handover.
Platform & infrastructure
Reliable delivery foundations: Linux services, containers, configuration management, CI/CD and monitoring that answers questions instead of raising them.
Data & integrations
Pipelines, scheduled jobs and integrations between systems. We pay particular attention to idempotency, failure handling and replaying after an incident.
Technical advisory
Architecture reviews, technology selection and second opinions before a significant investment. Delivered as a written assessment with concrete recommendations.
Modernisation
Incremental replacement of ageing components without a freeze on delivery. Each step is reversible and measured against the same acceptance criteria.
Handover & documentation
Runbooks, architecture notes and onboarding material for the team that will own the system. Written for people who were not in the room.
How engagements are structured
We prefer fixed-scope work with a defined outcome. Where that is not practical, we work in monthly increments with a review and an exit point at the end of each one.
- Fixed scope A written statement of work, a timeline and a single price for a defined deliverable.
- Monthly increment A prioritised backlog and a demo at the end of each month; either side can stop at the boundary.
- Advisory A short, time-boxed review with a written report and a follow-up session.
