CI/CD pipeline engineering
Build, test, scan and deploy pipelines in GitHub Actions, Jenkins or GitLab CI — with environment promotion, approval gates and one-command rollback.
DevOps & CI/CD
Ship faster, break less, and know immediately when something is wrong
Manual deployments are slow, inconsistent and frightening — so teams deploy rarely, which makes each release riskier still. We break that cycle: automated pipelines that build, test and deploy on every change, container platforms that scale predictably, and observability that tells you about a problem before your customers do.
Capabilities
What this service covers
Kubernetes & containers
Docker images built to sensible standards, orchestrated on Amazon EKS or ECS, with autoscaling, health checks, resource limits and zero-downtime rolling deployments.
GitOps delivery
Argo CD keeps the running cluster reconciled with what is in Git. The repository becomes the single source of truth, and drift becomes visible instead of silent.
Configuration management
Ansible playbooks for server configuration and fleet management, so machines are configured identically and repeatably rather than by memory.
Observability & SRE
Prometheus metrics, Grafana dashboards, structured logging and alert routing, with service level objectives that reflect what your users actually care about.
Release & incident practice
Deployment strategies, rollback drills, runbooks and post-incident reviews — the operational habits that keep a growing system trustworthy.
Deliverables
What you actually receive
Every engagement is scoped in writing before it starts. A typical DevOps & CI/CD engagement includes the following — adjusted to what your organization genuinely needs.
- Pipeline design covering build, test, scan, deploy and rollback
- Working CI/CD implementation in your repositories
- Containerization of existing applications where appropriate
- Kubernetes or ECS cluster configuration with autoscaling
- GitOps repository structure and Argo CD setup
- Prometheus and Grafana monitoring stack with alerting
- Environment strategy: development, staging, production
- Runbooks, rollback procedures and on-call documentation
- Team enablement so your developers own the pipeline confidently
Proof of work
Our Process
How we deliver it
A predictable sequence with a clear decision point at each stage — so you always know where the project stands.
1
Audit
We review how code currently reaches production, how long it takes, and what breaks most often.
2
Design
We agree the branching model, environments, gates and rollback strategy before writing a single workflow file.
3
Implement
We build the pipeline incrementally, starting with the highest-friction step so you feel the benefit early.
4
Instrument
Metrics, logs and alerts go in alongside the pipeline — not as a later phase that never arrives.
5
Hand over
We document everything and work alongside your developers until they are running it comfortably without us.
Questions
Frequently asked
We have no DevOps engineer. Can you be ours?
Yes. Many clients engage us as a fractional DevOps team — we build the platform and then support it on an ongoing agreement, which costs considerably less than a full-time senior hire.
How long does a first pipeline take?
For a single well-understood application, a working build-and-deploy pipeline is usually a matter of days rather than months. Multi-service platforms with compliance requirements take longer, and we scope that honestly up front.
Do we have to move to Kubernetes?
No, and often you should not. Kubernetes is powerful and it is also operational overhead. For many workloads ECS or a managed platform is the better answer, and we will recommend it when it is.
Can you work inside our existing tooling?
Yes. We adapt to the stack you already run rather than insisting on a rebuild, unless the existing setup is genuinely the problem — in which case we will explain why.
