Software & DevOps in Birmingham

Automation

Replace repetitive manual work with reliable scripts, workflows and CI/CD pipelines, so releases and routine jobs run themselves.

Custom software

Internal tools, integrations and APIs built around how your organisation actually works, with tests and documentation.

Containers & Kubernetes

Containerise your applications and run them on Kubernetes: cluster design, migration and day-to-day operation.

Chef & infrastructure as code

Servers and environments defined in code with Chef, so every build is repeatable, reviewable and quick to recreate.

Linux infrastructure & scaling

Linux platforms that stay fast and available as load grows: tuning, high availability, hardening and capacity planning.

Managed infrastructure

We build, run and monitor the infrastructure your software needs, as a service, so your team can focus on the product.

Birmingham: common questions

Do you work with Birmingham tech teams?

Yes. We work alongside in-house engineering teams on Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, CI/CD and Linux, or take on whole pieces of work.

Can you join our team on a contract basis?

Yes. Embedded work inside your team, with your tools and processes, is one of the ways we work.

Can you help us scale our Linux infrastructure?

Yes. We tune, harden and scale Linux platforms, adding high availability and capacity planning so growth doesn’t mean outages.
