Problems We Solve

Architecture Review

Your platform has become difficult to scale, maintain or evolve. We identify technical risks and provide actionable recommendations.

Technical Due Diligence

Independent evaluation of software products before investment, acquisition or strategic decisions.

See the process

Troubled Project Recovery

Projects behind schedule, over budget or weighed down by technical debt. We assess the situation and provide a recovery plan.

Fractional Architecture Leadership

Senior technical guidance without the cost and commitment of hiring a full-time CTO.

Case Studies

Telecom

Telecom Platform

ContextLarge telecommunications SaaS platform — a contact-center call-distribution system.

Challenge

Contact-center infrastructure handling over 1 million calls per week required high availability, predictable performance and real-time, skill-based routing under sustained load.

Approach

Designed an actor-based distributed call-distribution architecture with skill-based routing, real-time queue management and resilient integration with the telephony layer.

Outcome

Stable operation under sustained high traffic, with a platform the team could extend through a clean control API.

ReferenceChief Architect for large-scale telecom systems processing over 1 million calls per week.
Retail

Retail Platform

ContextHigh-volume cloud point-of-sale and retail-management SaaS platform.

Challenge

Rapid growth across stores and devices required an architecture that could scale transaction volume while staying reliable in real time.

Approach

Designed a microservices architecture with polyglot persistence, event-driven processing and real-time updates, plus device connectivity and multi-tenant isolation.

Outcome

Supported more than 1.5 million orders per month while maintaining operational stability.

Aerospace

Aerospace Data Platform

ContextAerospace software company building cloud-native platforms for flight data and fleet intelligence.

Challenge

Mission-critical reliability and strict data integrity were required to ingest real-time flight telemetry and normalize fleet data at industry scale.

Approach

Architected and built a VPN-less, certificate-based device-connectivity system — a zero-trust PKI — alongside a real-time flight-data synchronization platform, on cloud-native microservices engineered specification-first for correctness.

Outcome

A maintainable, compliant platform normalizing fleet data at industry scale, built for long-term evolution.

Legal AI

Legal AI Platform

ContextLegal-technology platform analyzing European regulatory requirements for compliance teams.

Challenge

Manual legal analysis and document preparation created significant overhead, with complex regulatory texts requiring expert interpretation at scale.

Approach

Designed a multi-agent, retrieval-augmented architecture that ingests regulatory texts and extracts structured requirements through staged analysis and AI-assisted drafting.

Outcome

Reduced the effort required for document preparation and enabled scalable, structured analysis of regulatory material.

Enterprise AI

Enterprise AI Platform

ContextEnterprise AI workspace platform for knowledge work, agents and automation.

Challenge

Delivering AI agents, tool orchestration and integrations as a coherent product required taming architectural complexity across many services.

Approach

Architected a microservices platform with AI-agent and tool orchestration, a provider-agnostic LLM gateway, a document and knowledge layer and a unified session model, delivered through a service SDK.

Outcome

A consistent, extensible platform where new agents, tools and integrations could be added without architectural divergence.
