Software Engineering Consultancy
We build the systems
that build your business.
Full-stack engineering, cloud architecture, and end-to-end systems modernisation. Nearly two decades of experience across energy, finance, insurance, and spatial data — delivered with the precision of a team that's done it before.

What we do
Engineering that covers the full picture.
From frontend to infrastructure, greenfield builds to legacy rescues — we bring depth across the entire stack.
Full-Stack Engineering
End-to-end application development across React, Angular, Node.js, and .NET. From frontend interfaces to robust backend APIs, we deliver complete systems — not just features.
Cloud Architecture
AWS-certified infrastructure design and migration. Serverless, containerised, or hybrid — architected for scale, security, and cost-efficiency from day one.
Systems Modernisation
Legacy system transformation without the disruption. We've migrated monoliths to microservices, rebuilt platforms end-to-end, and modernised codebases serving thousands of users.
Data & Spatial Intelligence
Business intelligence, analytics dashboards, and geospatial data systems. We turn complex datasets into clear, actionable insights — with the rigour of an MSc in GIS behind it.
API & Integration Design
GraphQL, REST, and real-time APIs designed for interoperability. We connect disparate systems, third-party services, and internal platforms into cohesive architectures.
Technical Leadership
Embedded engineering leadership for teams that need direction, not just developers. Architecture decisions, code review, mentoring, and delivery management — the kind of experience that only comes from leading teams through large-scale projects.
Selected work
Real projects. Real outcomes.
A selection of projects across industries — from greenfield builds to legacy transformations.
Real-time analytics platform for commodity traders
Built a full-stack analytics system helping energy traders make faster, data-driven decisions. React frontend with C#/.NET and Node.js backend, processing live market data into actionable dashboards.
Outcome: Sub-second data refresh across multiple trading desks
FX trade blotter on serverless AWS
Built a real-time trade blotter for an FX desk, giving traders visibility of open positions and trade history. Entirely serverless on AWS — Cognito authentication, GraphQL APIs via AppSync, Lambda compute, and DynamoDB.
Outcome: Fully serverless architecture with enterprise-grade auth
End-to-end system rebuild for fleet management
Modernised the complete technology stack for a multi-site operations company. Replaced legacy systems with a modern, server-side rendered platform covering bookings, fleet tracking, customer management, and reporting.
Outcome: Full legacy replacement across multiple business units
Catastrophe modelling and risk assessment systems
Led development of risk and insurance platforms used by global broking teams. Spatial data, catastrophe modelling, and business intelligence systems built to handle complex, high-stakes datasets.
Outcome: Systems used across global broking operations
Frontend platform migration and team leadership
Led the frontend engineering team through a major platform migration from legacy tech to Angular. Mentored developers, established coding standards, and delivered a modern, accessible web application.
Outcome: Successful migration with zero downtime for users
Commercial server-side rendered retail platform
Developed a production e-commerce platform with server-side rendering, payment integration, inventory management, and a content-managed storefront — built for performance and SEO.
Outcome: Live production site serving paying customers
Legacy platform consolidation for real-time asset monitoring
Delivered a phased migration from a fragmented legacy stack — five separate databases, distributed workers, and multiple ingestion pipelines — into a unified PostgreSQL platform on AWS. Real-time sensor data flowing through a single API layer on ECS Fargate, with a custom matching engine replacing a brittle legacy pipeline.
Outcome: Consolidated five legacy data stores into a single unified platform
Technology
The right tool for the job. Every time.
We're not wedded to a single stack. We choose technologies based on the problem, not the trend.
