How we work

Engineer-built engagements with fixed scope and fixed fees.

No open-ended retainers. No staff-augmentation contracts. Every engagement begins with a free 30-minute intro call.

Principles

Three commitments behind every engagement

Security baked in, not bolted on

Signed software releases, automatic secret rotation, runtime guardrails. Security is wired into the platform from week one. Compliance becomes a documentation exercise, not a panic.

Everything as code

Infrastructure, pipelines, response playbooks, policies: all version-controlled and peer-reviewed. Manual one-off changes are the exception that gets a ticket and a date.

Build it, run it, own it

Engagements end with documentation your team uses, not a wiki nobody reads. Ongoing operations continue only if you want them; self-sufficient is the default.

Engagement model

From first call to handoff

  1. 01

    Intro call

    Free 30-minute call. We talk fit, scope, and timeline. If we're a clean match, you'll have a fixed-fee proposal in a few business days; if your scope needs deeper diagnosis first, the next step is the paid Discovery & design phase below. No-pressure exit at this stage.

  2. 02

    Discovery & design

    1–2 weeks paid. Deep technical audit, target architecture, sequenced rollout plan. Output is a written design document and a fixed-fee SOW for implementation. Engagement stops here cleanly if the design isn't a fit.

  3. 03

    Implementation

    Typically 4–12 weeks fixed-fee, fixed-scope; larger multi-region or migration engagements run up to ~16 weeks on the same fixed-scope model. Weekly progress visible in the same repos your team works in. We embed when needed, hand off cleanly when done. Optional managed-ops retainer continues the relationship if you want it.
