Cloud Engineering Practice

Cloud infrastructure built for operators, not demos.

We build cloud infrastructure for organizations where downtime is a liability, not an inconvenience. Every design decision is codified, reproducible, and operated by your team.

Architecture Philosophy

"Infrastructure is an engineering discipline, not a cost center. The teams that treat it as a versioned, observable software practice are the teams that deploy with confidence."

Capabilities

What We Deliver

Cloud Architecture & Landing Zones

Multi-account AWS and GCP architectures with proper landing zones, organizational unit structures, and account-level isolation boundaries. We design for security and compliance from the account topology down.

DeliverableTerraform Landing Zone Modules

Production Kubernetes & Cilium

Production Kubernetes clusters with hardened node configurations, namespace-scoped RBAC, network policies enforced at the kernel eBPF layer, and pod security standards.

DeliverableHardened EKS / GKE Clusters

Infrastructure as Code & GitOps

Terraform and OpenTofu modules with remote state locking, workspace isolation, and CI/CD pipelines enforcing plan-before-apply and Conftest compliance rules.

DeliverableAutomated Plan/Apply Pipelines

Internal Developer Platforms

Internal developer platforms reducing cognitive load without hiding critical operational details. Golden paths for workloads with self-service provisioning guardrails.

DeliverableDeveloper Golden Paths & CLI

Site Reliability & Error Budgets

SLO-driven reliability practices grounded in error budgets, not uptime theater. Incident response frameworks, capacity planning, and chaos engineering.

DeliverableSLO Framework & Runbooks

Migration & Modernization

Structured migration from legacy infrastructure to cloud-native architectures. Dependency mapping, data gravity analysis, and phased cutover schedules.

DeliverablePhased Migration Plan & Cutover

High-Throughput Networking

VPC architectures, Transit Gateway topologies, hybrid connectivity via Direct Connect / VPN, and cross-AZ traffic minimization to prevent egress cost spikes.

DeliverableTransit Gateway Mesh & DNS

FinOps Capital Optimization

FinOps practices that go beyond turning off idle instances. Resource tagging, right-sizing automation, 3-year RI commitments, and Graviton compute migrations.

DeliverableRightsizing Audit & RI Strategy

Cloud Architecture Blueprint

Production Infrastructure Topology

Standardized multi-account AWS & GCP topology enforced through deterministic infrastructure code and immutable control planes.

Layer 01AWS Transit Gateway / Cloud Interconnect / Envoy

Network Perimeter & Ingress

Isolation Boundary

Isolated Ingress VPC with centralized inspection

Enforcement & Controls

Strict egress filtering, TLS 1.3 termination, zero direct public IP assignment to compute

Auditability & Observability

VPC Flow Logs mirrored to immutable S3 audit sink with Athena querying

Process

How a Cloud Engagement Works

01

Assessment

We audit your existing infrastructure — architecture, tooling, processes, and operational maturity. You get a written technical assessment.

02

Architecture

We design the target state architecture and document every decision with rationale and tradeoffs. ADRs, network diagrams, and IAM policies.

03

Build

We implement everything in code and deploy through CI/CD. Terraform modules, Kubernetes manifests, and pipeline configurations in your repos.

04

Transfer

Documentation, pair programming sessions, and structured knowledge transfer. Your team owns and operates everything we built.

FAQ

Questions We Get Asked

Do you support multi-cloud architectures?

Yes. We work primarily with AWS and GCP, and we design for multi-cloud when the business case justifies it. We will evaluate whether multi-cloud complexity is warranted for your workload constraints.

How long does a typical cloud migration take?

Most engagements run 8 to 16 weeks. A greenfield landing zone can be operational in 4 to 6 weeks. A lift-and-shift migration of a mid-size application portfolio typically takes 10 to 14 weeks including validation.

How do your engineers integrate with our team?

We work directly in your repositories, attend your standups, and use your communication tools. We are senior engineers embedded in your workflow with zero handoff gaps.

Why Terraform over Pulumi, CDK, or other IaC tools?

We default to Terraform / OpenTofu because of its ecosystem maturity and provider stability. We also support Pulumi and Crossplane when suited to your platform needs.

Let's talk about your infrastructure.

We start every engagement with a technical conversation with an engineer — your architecture, constraints, and operational goals.
