Path · Cloud & Infrastructure

Infrastructure you can rebuild from a repository.

Public cloud, bare metal, or both, provisioned as code, connected across sites, and simple enough that more than one person understands it.

Sound familiar?

Where these projects usually start.

Our cloud bill grows faster than we do.

Only one person knows how production works.

We pay premium SaaS prices for things we could own.

What I do

Cloud & Infrastructure, start to finish.

Cloud provisioning & orchestration

AWS, Google Cloud, Azure and international hosting, always as code, deployed through GitOps and CI/CD.

Bare-metal Kubernetes

Clusters built from bare metal on open-source hypervisors, with distributed Ceph storage automated across many machines.

Multi-site & multi-region

Compute and networking stitched across sites and regions so they behave like one place.

Own your stack

Self-hosted open-source applications that do the work premium SaaS charges for, backed up and monitored.

How we’d start

No price list. A conversation first.

  1. A conversationThirty minutes about what you’re trying to build or fix, and whether I’m the right fit.
  2. ScopingA written plan with an estimate and an architecture sketch.
  3. The buildA fixed-scope project or ongoing hours, with progress you can see.
  4. Ongoing supportHosting, maintenance and on-call, or a clean handover.
Next step

Talk about your platform.

Tell me what you’re working on. I’ll tell you honestly whether I’m the right fit and what a first step looks like.
