Fixed Scope
A defined deliverable, a fixed price and a date. Best for audits, migrations and well-understood features.
Services
Practical engineering help for teams that need to ship, scale, or fix something that has stopped keeping up.
Web Development
Front ends and APIs built to be read by the next developer as easily as they are used by the customer.
We build marketing sites, internal tools and customer-facing applications. The stack is chosen to fit the problem and the team who will maintain it — not the other way round.
Every delivery includes the tests, deployment scripts and written notes needed to run it without us.
- Server-rendered and single-page applications
- REST and GraphQL API design
- Accessibility and responsive layout
- CI/CD pipelines and automated deployment
- Integration with existing identity and billing systems
System Architecture
Designing resilient and scalable backend systems that can grow with your business.
Most scaling problems are structural rather than infrastructural. We start by measuring where time and money actually go, then change the shape of the system instead of adding capacity to a bottleneck.
Deliverables are concrete: diagrams, trade-off notes, migration sequence, and a rollback plan.
- Service decomposition and boundary design
- Database modelling, indexing and query review
- Caching strategy and background job design
- Observability: metrics, tracing and alerting
- Cost review of the existing cloud footprint
Performance Optimization
Analyzing and enhancing your application’s speed and efficiency for a better user experience.
We profile before we change anything, then report the numbers. Optimisation work is ranked by impact, so you can stop at any point and still be ahead.
Typical engagements run two to four weeks and finish with a reproducible benchmark.
- Front-end payload and rendering audits
- API latency profiling and query plans
- Asset pipeline and caching headers
- Load testing and capacity planning
- Regression benchmarks in CI
Engagement Models
Pick the shape that matches the size of the problem.
Ongoing Retainer
A reserved number of days each month for maintenance, improvements and on-call escalation.
Embedded
We join your existing team and ceremonies for a set period, working inside your repositories and process.
Common Questions
How long does a typical project take?
Audits and optimisation work usually run two to four weeks. New applications typically take six to twelve weeks depending on scope and how much of the design is already settled.
Do you work with existing codebases?
Yes, and most of our work is exactly that. We start with a short review so both sides know what the codebase actually needs before any larger commitment.
Who owns the code and the infrastructure?
You do, entirely. We work in your repositories and under your accounts wherever possible, and hand over credentials and documentation at the end of each phase.
Can you work alongside our in-house developers?
Frequently. We are happy to pair, review pull requests and run internal sessions so knowledge stays with your team after the engagement ends.
Not sure which service you need?
Describe the problem in a few lines. We will tell you what we would look at first, and whether it is a job for us at all.
