SERVICES / SOFTWARE ENGINEERING
Software built for the long run
We help you design, build and modernize the systems your business runs on, and keep them easy to change.
When the core system can’t take the change, every launch ships with another workaround bolted on. We build software to be changed, not worked around: clear interfaces, automated tests and pipelines from the first sprint, on whichever cloud you run. The architecture and the code are yours.
What we do
APIs and integration
Well-defined APIs and event-driven integration between the systems you already run, with contracts, versioning and monitoring.
- API gateways and message brokers on your cloud of choice
- Versioned contracts for every interface
- Monitoring on every interface
Core platform builds
New business platforms built for regulated work: secure by default, tested, and ready to run from the first release.
- Architecture and code you own
- Automated tests and CI/CD from the first sprint
- Audit logging built in
Java and .NET modernization
Frameworks, runtimes and hosting upgraded in steps, so the application keeps running while it moves forward.
- An upgrade path to supported versions
- Hosting on managed app services or containers
- Security findings cleared as part of the work
Microservices, where they earn their place
Service boundaries drawn along your business domains, and only where independent change is worth the extra moving parts.
- Domain map and service boundaries
- Shared pipelines and observability
- Teams that own what they ship
Our solutions
Replace exports, email and re-keying with integrations that are documented, monitored and owned.
- Inventory of current point-to-point links
- APIs or events chosen per interface
- Alerts when an integration fails
A new core platform for the product ideas the old one can’t carry, designed with your team and handed over in working order.
- Architecture decision records
- Security and audit logging by default
- Runbooks and handover for your team
Java and .NET applications moved off out-of-support frameworks with builds anyone on the team can reproduce.
- Reproducible builds
- Dependency and runtime upgrades in steps
- Regression tests before each step
How it runs
Blueprint
A short first engagement: we map the system, the constraints and the change you need, and recommend whether to extend, rebuild or route around it.
Design
Architecture, interfaces and a delivery plan agreed with your team before code is written.
Build
Short iterations with working software at the end of each, tested and deployed through the same pipeline every time.
Hand over
Documentation, runbooks and pairing with your engineers, so the team that runs it can change it.
What you get
- Source code, architecture and documentation you own
- Automated tests and CI/CD pipelines
- Integration contracts and monitoring
- Runbooks for the team that will operate it
- Deployment in your cloud account and your region
Questions we get asked
Which languages and clouds do you build on?
Mostly Java and Spring Boot, .NET, TypeScript and Python, on AWS, Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud. We recommend what fits your estate and your team, not what we resell.
Should we rebuild or extend our current system?
It depends on what the system does well today and what it needs to do next. The Blueprint gives you a recommendation with the trade-offs written down before you commit to either.
Who owns the code?
You do, from day one. It lives in your repositories and runs in your cloud accounts.
