Cloud & Infrastructure Engineering
Infrastructurethatcanberebuiltfromsourceandrecoveredundertest.
We design, build and operate multi-cloud and hybrid compute, network, storage and identity estates. Infrastructure is a program: if a resource cannot be recreated from version control, it does not exist.

Who this is for
The situation that makes this urgent
The mandate and boundaries below come directly from the approved service catalogue.
Cloud resources have drifted beyond what the declared configuration can recreate.
Recovery objectives exist on paper but have never survived a real simulation.
Cloud spend rises without ownership, enforced tagging or evidence of value.
Three ways to engage
Assess, Transform, Operate
Each package has a defined duration, retained outputs, commercial model and objective exit criterion.
Assess
Cloud estate and resilience baseline.
Transform
Landing zone, migration and resilience build.
Operate
Managed cloud and infrastructure.
Capability detail
The technical substance, on the page and not behind a form
The operating capabilities and controls that define this practice.
Multi-cloud
AWS, Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure
Hybrid
On-premises and colocation topologies
Automation
Declarative infrastructure as code
Resilience
Immutable backup and recovery simulation
FinOps
Merge-time ownership and cost controls
Operations
Drift, patch, capacity and SLO management
Technical standard
Requirements that apply to every engagement
Must and should requirements from the board-approved practice standard, made visible before a conversation.
Provision and modify every environment through declarative infrastructure as code.
Continuously detect drift and safely revert unauthorised change.
Keep immutable backups cryptographically isolated from production credentials and test restores.
Prove recovery objectives annually for Tier 1 and every 18 months for Tier 2.
Enforce cost-centre tags and non-production schedules at merge time.
Separate environments with network segmentation and least-privilege identity.
Classify every environment by SLO tier at Design.
Keep managed platforms within one minor supported version or publish a dated exception.
Report committed, on-demand, wasted, eliminated and forecast spend monthly.
Rehearse Tier 1 failover, including human decisions, at least twice yearly.
How we work
Four phases. Objective exit criteria.
A gate passed on assertion has not been passed. One exit criterion per gate is shown here; the full set sits on each practice page.
Discover
Workload profile, dependency map and recovery objectives written down and signed off by the client owner.Design
Target architecture reviewed against the vendor-supported pattern for the engine in question; failure modes enumerated.Deliver
Recovery tested from backup within the stated RTO, evidenced by a timestamped test record.Operate
Runbooks in place, rota published, first quarterly service review held with measured figures.
The boundary
What we do not do
A capability list without explicit limits is only marketing.
Physical layer
No data-centre construction, cabling, power, cooling or hardware break-fix.
End users
No device management, corporate helpdesk or desktop support.
Carriers
We define and manage connectivity requirements but do not sell circuits.
Evidence
The artefacts that make the claim testable
Evidence replaces unqualified promises and unattributed metrics.
Drift position
Every live resource reconciled to version-controlled state, with exceptions dated. Measurement method and review date accompany the delivered record.
Recovery simulation
Measured RTO and RPO results, including the human decision path. Measurement method and review date accompany the delivered record.
Get started
A cloud estate baseline measures drift, recovery and cost before a migration or operating commitment is made.
You keep the written baseline whether or not we continue together.
