Path · Appliances & IoT

Software that ships on hardware and installs cleanly anywhere.

Delivery pipelines, portable machine images and secure remote access for appliance, IoT and media products.

Sound familiar?

Where these projects usually start.

Every customer install is a special case.

Our devices sit on networks we can’t reach.

Building a release image takes a week and a hero.

What I do

Appliances & IoT, start to finish.

Appliance pipelines

Repeatable builds that turn a release into a tested, versioned appliance image.

Portable images

Machine images that run on private hypervisors and public cloud alike.

Isolated networks

Secure access into segmented and air-gapped device networks.

Media environments

Digital asset management environments for media and studio workflows.

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 product.

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.
