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.

Energy & Trading

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

Finance & FX

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

Operations & Logistics

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

Insurance & Risk

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

Professional Services

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

E-commerce

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

Infrastructure & IoT

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.
