Competencies

The technologies and practices our engineers and consultants work with day to day, from the first requirement to support in production.

01

Application development

Custom software for web, desktop and mobile, built on the stacks most enterprises already run.

Software Development Lifecycle

Every project we run follows the same lifecycle: requirements, architecture, build, testing, staging and release, then ongoing maintenance. Each stage ends with a sign-off from the client, so scope changes are agreed before they cost money.

The lifecycle is the same whether we deliver a whole application or supply engineers to a client team. It gives everyone one shared view of progress and risk.

What this covers
  • Requirements and acceptance criteria
  • Architecture and technical design
  • Build in short increments
  • Manual and automated testing
  • Staging validation and release
  • Maintenance and upgrades

Java applications

Java is the backbone of many enterprise systems, and much of our work is on applications that have been in production for years. We build new services with Spring Boot and modernize older ones without stopping the business that depends on them.

Our engineers work across the stack, from REST APIs and data layers to the Angular front ends that often sit on top.

What this covers
  • Java 11, 17 and later
  • Spring Boot and Spring MVC
  • Hibernate and JPA
  • REST APIs and microservices
  • Maven, Gradle and CI/CD
  • Legacy modernization

.NET applications

We build and maintain .NET applications for the web, back-end services and the desktop, on both .NET Framework and modern .NET. Many of our clients run Windows-centric environments with SQL Server, and we work within that setup rather than asking them to change it.

On longer engagements, our lead developers also mentor client teams and help set coding standards.

What this covers
  • C#, .NET Framework and .NET Core
  • ASP.NET web applications and APIs
  • Angular and TypeScript front ends
  • SQL Server development and tuning
  • Azure DevOps pipelines

Full-stack development

On full-stack projects, one team owns the interface, the business logic and the database. There are fewer handoffs, fewer debates about whose bug it is, and a shorter path from idea to release.

We staff these teams with engineers who are comfortable across the stack, backed by specialists when part of the system needs deeper work.

What this covers
  • Angular and React front ends
  • Java and .NET back ends
  • Database design and optimization
  • API design and integration
  • Deployment and support

Desktop applications

Some software works better on the desktop: tools that need local processing power, have to work offline, or handle data that should not leave the machine. We build these applications for Windows, macOS and Linux.

We pay close attention to installation, updates and security, because desktop software runs on machines the client does not always control.

What this covers
  • Windows, macOS and Linux
  • Offline-first design
  • Local data storage and encryption
  • Installers and controlled updates
  • Integration with server systems

Mobile applications

We build applications for phones and tablets, either as native iOS and Android apps or as web and hybrid apps when one codebase makes more sense. The choice depends on the features, the budget and how the app will be maintained.

Common requirements on our projects include offline use, push notifications and secure sign-in tied to company systems.

What this covers
  • Native iOS and Android
  • Hybrid and progressive web apps
  • Offline sync
  • Push notifications
  • Secure authentication
  • App store release support
02

Delivery, data and quality

The practices that keep software reliable once it is in use: automated releases, testing, data pipelines and service management.

DevOps

DevOps is about getting changes into production safely and often. We set up build and release pipelines, automate quality checks, and make sure development and operations share responsibility for what runs in production.

The result is smaller, more frequent releases and quicker fixes when something goes wrong.

What this covers
  • CI/CD with Azure DevOps and Jenkins
  • Automated tests in the pipeline
  • Infrastructure as code
  • Release and rollback planning
  • Monitoring and alerting

Software testing

Testing runs through every stage of our projects, not just the end. We combine code reviews, automated unit and integration tests, and manual testing of real user scenarios.

For systems under heavy use, we add performance, stress and security testing to find problems before customers do.

What this covers
  • Unit and integration testing
  • Functional and regression testing
  • Performance and stress testing
  • Security testing
  • Usability and acceptance testing
  • Test automation frameworks

Data engineering

We build the pipelines that move data from source systems into warehouses and reports. The work covers extraction, cleaning, transformation and loading, with monitoring so that broken feeds are spotted quickly.

Our data engineers work closely with analysts, so the datasets they build answer real business questions.

What this covers
  • Python and PySpark
  • Advanced SQL
  • AWS S3, EMR, Glue and Lambda
  • Snowflake and Redshift
  • ETL and ELT design
  • Data quality checks

ServiceNow

ServiceNow lets companies run IT, HR, customer service and security requests through one platform. We configure workflows, build self-service portals, and connect ServiceNow to the tools a client already uses.

The aim is fewer emails and spreadsheets, faster resolution, and clear reporting on where requests get stuck.

What this covers
  • IT service management
  • HR and customer service workflows
  • Self-service portals
  • Integrations with existing tools
  • Reporting and dashboards
03

Cloud

Planning, migrating and running workloads on public, private and hybrid cloud.

Cloud computing

Companies use the cloud for backup and recovery, development environments, analytics and customer-facing applications. We help decide which workloads to move, migrate them, and run them afterwards with costs kept under control.

We work across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, and with public, private and hybrid setups.

What this covers
  • Cloud readiness assessment
  • Migration planning and execution
  • Backup and disaster recovery
  • Virtual desktops
  • Cost monitoring

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

Infrastructure as a Service provides servers, storage and networking on demand, paid for as you use them. It suits teams that want full control over their environment without buying and maintaining hardware.

We design and manage these environments, from virtual networks to backup policies.

What this covers
  • Virtual machines and storage
  • Network design and security
  • Public, private and hybrid models
  • Scaling and capacity planning

Platform as a Service (PaaS)

Platform as a Service takes care of servers, operating systems and middleware, so developers can focus on the application. It shortens the time from idea to release and removes much of the patching work.

We help teams choose a platform and build applications that make good use of it.

What this covers
  • Managed application platforms
  • Managed databases
  • Developer tooling
  • Automated patching and scaling

Software as a Service (SaaS)

Software as a Service covers ready-made applications such as email, CRM and HR systems that the provider runs for you. We help choose the right product, configure it, connect it to existing systems and move data across.

Where security or control matters more, we look at private or hybrid options.

What this covers
  • Product selection
  • Configuration and rollout
  • Data migration
  • Integration with existing systems
  • User training
