DevOps & Platform Engineering

Kubernetes, GitOps, IaC, CI/CD, observability, cost guardrails. The boring foundation that prevents 67% of AI production incidents (per our research).

▸ What's in scope

What you get, end to end

Kubernetes platform

EKS / GKE / AKS. Karpenter or cluster-autoscaler. Hardened defaults. Multi-environment from day one. We don't build snowflake clusters.

GitOps + IaC

ArgoCD for delivery, Terraform for everything else, Atlantis for PR-driven plan/apply review. Drift detection wired into Slack.

Observability

OpenTelemetry traces, structured logs, SLOs and error budgets. Honeycomb / Datadog / self-hosted Grafana stack — your call.

CI/CD pipelines

GitHub Actions or GitLab CI. Cached, parallel, fast. Secrets via OIDC, never long-lived. Same pipeline runs in PR and prod.

Cost guardrails

Budgets per namespace, per service, per AI feature. Alerts on velocity, not just totals. Monthly cost report you can read.

Runbooks & oncall

Incident playbooks, on-call rotation setup, post-mortem templates. We oncall with your team during the first launch week.

▸ Who this is for

A good fit if…

You're shipping AI but the platform is ad hoc

Console-clicked infra, drifted Terraform, no SLOs. Adding AI workloads to that is asking for incidents you'll diagnose at 2 AM.

You inherited a platform you can't change quickly

A previous team / vendor built something fragile. You need a working version that your team can actually evolve.

Engineering velocity has stalled

Multi-week release trains. Manual deploys. Nobody trusts the build. We get you to same-day deploys without a rewrite.

Cost is going the wrong way

Cloud bill grew faster than headcount. We instrument, find the leaks, and put guardrails in place — typically 25–40% off the cloud bill within a quarter.
