PLATFORM &
INFRASTRUCTURE
Every AI adoption recommendation we make is grounded in 30 years of hands-on platform engineering across financial services, digital platforms, defence, and government. We do not advise on what we have not built.
WHAT WE BUILD
Cloud Architecture
Multi-cloud and hybrid cloud design across AWS, Azure, and GCP — built for resilience, compliance, and cost efficiency.
- Architecture reviews and target-state design
- Multi-region, high-availability topologies
- 3 consecutive AWS Well-Architected Reviews — zero critical findings
- Regulated environments: ISO 27001, GDPR, BSI IT-Grundschutz
DevOps & DORA Elite Delivery
From monthly releases to 20+ daily production deployments — DORA Elite transformation with zero P1 incidents across 400+ brand partners.
- CI/CD pipeline design and implementation
- Kubernetes, OpenShift, and container orchestration
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, GitOps)
- Internal PaaS, Golden Paths, and self-service deployment tooling
FinOps & Cost Optimisation
Structured cloud cost governance that turns uncontrolled spend into a managed, predictable line item.
- €250K–€750K annual savings delivered — $3M AWS portfolio managed
- Tagging policies, rightsizing, and reserved capacity planning
- Executive-level cost reporting and accountability frameworks
- AI-driven FinOps tooling across Legal, Finance, and Operations
Observability & SRE
Production-grade monitoring, alerting, and incident management — MTTR under 15 minutes as final P1/P2 escalation authority.
- Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry stack deployment
- SLO/SLI definition and DORA metrics tracking
- Blameless post-mortem culture and incident command process
- On-call runbooks and crisis management playbooks
Security & Compliance
Security embedded into the platform layer — not bolted on after the fact. 14 consecutive years of zero critical audit findings.
- 14 years: ISO 27001, ISO 22301, GDPR, NIST, BSI IT-Grundschutz — zero findings
- Policy-as-Code and automated compliance scanning
- Zero-trust network architecture and secrets management
- Tech due diligence for M&A and provider transitions
Datacentre & Legacy Modernisation
From Tier-3/4 datacentre design to cloud-native migration — the full infrastructure lifecycle, from build to decommission.
- Designed and built 3 Tier-3/4 datacentres — Qatar national digital backbone
- Tier-4 sovereign platform connecting 50+ ministries, agencies, and banks
- eLAB: self-service developer platform onboarding hundreds of ministry developers
- Application rationalisation and data centre modernisation programmes
Why This Matters for AI Adoption
AI tools fail in production when the underlying platform is not ready — unreliable APIs, uncontrolled costs, no observability, and no security governance. We close that gap before it becomes a crisis.
The dual-hat matters: an AI Adoption Architect who has also run the infrastructure layer — achieving DORA Elite metrics, managing $3M cloud portfolios, and maintaining 14 years of zero audit findings — can spot the technical blockers that pure change management consultants miss entirely.
