Platform Engineering

Overview

Empower Your Developers

Platform Engineering is about giving developers superpowers. Instead of waiting days for infrastructure, filing tickets, or figuring out deployment processes, developers get self-service tools that let them ship code faster, safely and consistently.

What is Platform Engineering?

Platform Engineering builds internal developer platforms, curated sets of tools, workflows, and self-service capabilities that make developers more productive. Think of it as “DevOps as a Product” where the platform team builds and maintains infrastructure-as-a-service for internal teams.

Why Platform Engineering Matters

As engineering teams grow, traditional approaches break down. Tickets become bottlenecks where waiting for ops teams to provision resources slows everything down. Inconsistent practices mean every team does things differently, making maintenance a nightmare. Repeated work occurs when teams rebuild the same infrastructure patterns over and over, and knowledge silos form when only a few people know how things work.

Platform Engineering solves this with self-service infrastructure where developers provision what they need when they need it, golden paths with pre-approved templates that implement best practices, consistent standards where everyone uses the same tools and patterns, and reduced cognitive load so developers focus on business logic instead of infrastructure.

Our Approach

We build internal platforms that developers actually want to use:

Developer Portal: Central hub for all platform services, documentation, and tools. Built on Backstage or similar platforms.

Self-Service Infrastructure: Developers can provision databases, queues, caches, and environments through simple interfaces or APIs.

Golden Path Templates: Pre-configured project templates with CI/CD, monitoring, and security built-in. Developers can start new services in minutes.

Service Catalog: Centralized catalog of all services, APIs, and resources with ownership, dependencies, and health status.

Automated Workflows: Common tasks automated from service creation to environment management to deployment.

Key Components

A complete internal platform includes infrastructure as code (Terraform modules and templates), CI/CD pipelines (pre-built pipeline templates for different app types), environment management (easy creation of dev, staging, production environments), service mesh (consistent networking, security, and observability), secrets management (secure, easy access to credentials), observability (monitoring, logging, and tracing built-in), and documentation (auto-generated docs that stay up-to-date).

Who Needs Platform Engineering?

Platform Engineering is valuable when you have 20+ developers, multiple teams building services independently, repetitive infrastructure work, onboarding that takes weeks, inconsistent practices across teams, and operations teams that are bottlenecks.

Platform as a Product

We treat your internal platform as a product with user research to understand what developers actually need, a roadmap to prioritize features based on impact, metrics to track adoption and satisfaction, and iteration for continuous improvement based on feedback.

Get Started

Building an internal platform is a journey. We help you start small, demonstrate value quickly, and scale as needed. Ready to give your developers superpowers? Let’s build a platform that makes your entire engineering organization more productive.
