Capability
Platform Engineering & SRE
Give your developers a paved road, not a pile of infrastructure. We build the internal platforms, reliability practices, and observability that let teams ship quickly and keep services healthy — with reliability measured, not hoped for.
Proven where it counts
100+ microservices, event-driven architecture
Accelerated build, deployment, and scaling timelines for a large-scale program by maintaining 150+ AWS EC2 instances and a 90-microservice polyglot containerized platform.
- Java
- GovCloud
- Microservices
API design & development
Accelerated delivery with cost savings for two public-facing API products. Transitioned from Akamai to AWS firewall for a direct cost reduction.

What we deliver
Internal Developer Platforms
Self-service platforms with golden paths that let teams ship safely without filing a ticket for every environment.
Kubernetes & Orchestration
Production-grade clusters — hardened, multi-tenant, and observable — on EKS, AKS, GKE, or self-managed for air-gapped needs.
SLOs & Error Budgets
Reliability defined in numbers: service objectives, error budgets, and the practices to spend them wisely.
Observability by Default
Metrics, logs, and traces wired in at the platform layer so every service is observable the day it launches.
Incident & On-Call
Runbooks, blameless postmortems, and on-call practices that shorten time-to-recover and prevent repeat outages.
Progressive Delivery
Canary and blue-green rollouts with automated rollback, so releases are routine events rather than white-knuckle nights.
Approach
Paved roads beat gatekeepers.
Reliability doesn't come from a team that says no — it comes from making the safe path the easy path. We build platforms with golden paths and guardrails, wire in observability at the foundation, and define reliability with SLOs and error budgets. Teams move faster because the platform handles the hard parts by default.
- Self-service golden paths with guardrails
- Observability wired in at the platform layer
- SLOs and error budgets that guide the roadmap
- Progressive delivery with automated rollback
Unified systems across the cloud / on-prem boundary. Built secure data pipelines connecting Salesforce cloud and on-prem TSA systems — one platform surface across two worlds.

Common questions
What is platform engineering, versus just running Kubernetes?
Running Kubernetes gives you a cluster; platform engineering gives your developers a paved road on top of it. We build the self-service capabilities, golden paths, and guardrails that let teams deploy, observe, and operate their services without deep infrastructure expertise — reducing cognitive load and standardizing how software reaches production.
How do SLOs and error budgets actually change how we operate?
They replace opinion with a shared number. An SLO defines what "reliable enough" means for a service; the error budget is what remains before you break that promise. When the budget is healthy, teams ship features; when it is spent, they invest in reliability. It turns the feature-versus-stability argument into a data-driven decision.
Where does AIOps fit with platform engineering?
The platform produces the signal; AIOps makes sense of it. We build the clusters, golden paths, SLOs, and on-call practices that keep services reliable — and when you want machine learning working that telemetry (anomaly detection, alert correlation, automated remediation), our AIOps practice consumes what the platform emits. One foundation, two disciplines.
Can you build a platform for air-gapped or GovCloud environments?
Yes. We build on self-hostable, open-standards tooling so the platform runs in AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, or fully disconnected enclaves, and we design to the security controls your authorization requires — including NIST 800-53 and continuous monitoring.
