Architecture & reliability review
Single points of failure, backups and recovery, and the limits you’ll hit as you scale.
DevOps and infrastructure audit with a clear roadmap
Sometimes the most valuable thing is an outside view. I review your infrastructure, pipelines, security and cloud costs, and give you a written report with a prioritized roadmap — what to fix first, what to automate and where you are overpaying.
When to call me
Sounds familiar?
These are the situations where teams usually bring me in.
- You’ve inherited infrastructure and need to know what you’re dealing with.
- The cloud bill keeps growing, and nobody can say exactly why.
- You’re preparing for growth, a funding round or a security review.
- Your team is too close to the system to see its weak spots.
- You’re choosing between cloud and bare metal for the next stage.
What I deliver
What you get
Security review
Access, secrets, network exposure and patching — the basics attackers check first.
CI/CD & workflow review
How code gets to production, how long it takes and what can go wrong along the way.
Cloud cost analysis
Where the money goes, what’s idle or oversized, and what could run cheaper — including bare metal for steady workloads.
Written report & roadmap
Findings ranked by impact and effort, so you know exactly where to start.

FAQ
Common questions
- What access do you need for an audit?
- Read-only access is usually enough: the cloud console or a billing export, repositories and monitoring. Nothing is changed during the audit.
- Do we have to keep working with you after the audit?
- No. The report is yours, and it is written so that your team — or anyone else — can act on it.
- Can an audit really reduce cloud costs?
- Often, yes: idle resources, oversized instances, unused discounts and expensive data transfer add up. The report estimates the effect of each recommendation, so you can decide what is worth doing.
