Services

Six specialist services, shaped around the decisions that matter most to engineering teams and the organisations that depend on them.

  1. 01

    Architecture Reviews

    A structured assessment of your system architecture — what is working, what is at risk, and what to change first.

    We look at your service boundaries, data flows, dependency structure, deployment topology, and the gap between intended and actual architecture. You leave with a prioritised action plan, not just a diagnosis.

    Well suited to: teams that have grown fast and want to understand the state of what they have built; organisations preparing for a significant scaling event; teams that have acquired technical debt and need an independent view of the risk.

  2. 02

    Cloud Engineering (AWS, Infrastructure as Code)

    AWS infrastructure design and implementation with Infrastructure as Code as the baseline, not an afterthought.

    We design and build cloud architectures on AWS using CDK or Terraform — with security, cost, and operational simplicity in mind from the start. We also review existing infrastructure for risk, cost optimisation opportunities, and compliance posture.

    Well suited to: teams standing up new AWS infrastructure; organisations looking to migrate from ad-hoc provisioning to IaC; engineering teams that need an experienced AWS hand for a specific project.

  3. 03

    Quality & Test Automation

    Engineering quality is not a separate phase — it is a property of how the team works. We help you build that in.

    This covers test strategy, test architecture, automated regression suite design, CI/CD quality gates, and the practices that keep quality high as the system grows. We focus on what delivers confidence at the right cost, not on maximising coverage metrics.

    Well suited to: teams with slow or unreliable test suites; organisations where production incidents are frequent and not well understood; teams adopting AI coding tools who want guardrails.

  4. 04

    AI-Augmented Engineering

    AI coding tools can accelerate your team significantly — or generate technical debt at scale. The difference is how you adopt them.

    We help engineering teams build the practices, conventions, and guardrails that make AI-assisted development sustainable. This includes code review standards for AI-generated output, prompt conventions for common engineering tasks, and the architectural discipline that keeps AI-generated code coherent with the rest of the system.

    Well suited to: teams actively adopting GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, or similar tools; organisations that have seen early productivity gains but are now experiencing quality or consistency issues; CTOs and engineering leads who want a structured adoption approach.

  5. 05

    Team Upskilling

    Sustainable improvements to engineering practice require the team to own them. We build capability, not dependency.

    Practical workshops and embedded coaching covering areas including: software architecture principles, AWS and cloud engineering, test automation, AI-assisted development, and engineering leadership for technical leads.

    Well suited to: teams building new capability after a hire or reorganisation; organisations investing in senior engineer development; engineering functions that want to raise standards consistently across multiple teams.

  6. 06

    Engineering Due Diligence

    An independent technical assessment for high-stakes decisions: acquisitions, investments, and strategic partnerships.

    We assess the engineering quality, technical risk profile, and scalability of a software business — examining codebase health, architecture, team practices, dependency risk, and operational maturity. Reports are clear, evidence-based, and written for both technical and non-technical audiences.

    Well suited to: private equity and venture capital firms assessing a portfolio company or acquisition target; acquirers conducting M&A technical due diligence; boards seeking an independent view of engineering risk before a strategic decision.
