Defined scope. Fixed timeline. No surprises.
Specific infrastructure work that needs to ship — not an open-ended team retainer. We scope it upfront, deliver it on schedule, then you decide if you want us to stay. Most clients do.
Microservices decomposition
Monolith-to-services migration with defined service boundaries, inter-service communication patterns, and data ownership strategy. Delivered with runbooks.
Kubernetes setup and optimisation
Production-grade cluster setup, Helm chart authoring, autoscaling configuration, observability stack (Prometheus, Grafana, alerts). From scratch or inheriting existing infra.
Data pipeline build
Event-driven pipelines with Kafka or similar. Ingestion, transformation, aggregation, and delivery layers. Idempotent by design. Replay-safe.
API redesign and platform engineering
REST or gRPC API redesign, versioning strategy, rate limiting, authentication patterns. Internal developer platform foundations — CI/CD, IaC, developer experience layer.
How a project engagement runs
Scoping call (1–2 hours). We document requirements, constraints, existing infra state, and success criteria.
Proposal within 48 hours. Fixed-scope or T&M (your preference), timeline, team composition, milestones.
Execution (6–16 weeks typical). Weekly progress updates. Milestone check-ins. No scope creep without explicit sign-off.
Handover with documentation. Runbooks, architecture diagrams, post-project knowledge transfer. Optional: transition to a dedicated team.
