Book a 30-min call ↗DevOps & platform engineering
Focused assessment or implementation project
Releases are fragile, cloud costs are unclear, or your platform needs to grow.
Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, observability, migrations, and practical cost controls.
AI-agent engineering
Discovery, bounded prototype, then staged delivery
You want an AI assistant or agent that can do useful work within clear boundaries.
Workflow design, retrieval, tool integration, evaluation, and approval gates around consequential actions.
How working together goes
Understand the problem
A 30-minute introductory call to discuss your product, team, constraints, and what needs to change.
Agree the scope
A proposal sets out deliverables, responsibilities, fees, and a start date. We agree what success looks like before work begins.
Work in useful increments
For a focused project, work toward the agreed deliverables. For an ongoing engagement, maintain clear priorities and review progress with your team.
Pricing
Fees depend on the scope, delivery responsibility, and engagement length. A focused assessment, an implementation project, and an ongoing fractional CTO engagement are quoted differently.
Share your problem and budget, if you have one. You’ll receive a scoped proposal before committing.
Availability
A start date is confirmed after reviewing the scope and current commitments. If you have a launch, migration, or review deadline, include it in your enquiry.
This is consulting and engineering delivery, rather than an emergency on-call service.
