Do you take one-off projects or ongoing retainers?

Both. Typical formats are a fixed-scope architecture review, a delivery-focused project such as a Kubernetes migration, or a monthly advisory retainer for an in-house platform team.

Cloud & Platform Engineering Consultancy

Q: Which cloud platforms do you support?

AWS is the primary focus, backed by AWS Solutions Architect Professional and DevOps Engineer Professional certifications. GCP and hybrid or on-premises Kubernetes are also supported.

Q: Can you help reduce our cloud bill?

Yes. Cost work is a dedicated service: workload rightsizing, commitment planning, storage lifecycle policies and a tagging model so the savings do not erode after the engagement ends.

Q: How do we get started?

Book the free 15-minute consultation. After the call you receive a short written summary with the recommended scope, timeline and next step.

I help engineering teams design, automate and run cloud infrastructure that scales without surprises. As an AWS Community Builder I work across architecture, Kubernetes, CI/CD and cost — from the first diagram to the production on-call rota.

Cloud Architecture

Well-Architected designs on AWS and GCP — scalable, secure and sized for the budget you actually have. Greenfield builds and legacy migrations alike.

Kubernetes & Containers

Production clusters that survive real traffic: EKS design, multi-tenancy, autoscaling, service mesh and the GitOps workflow around them.

DevOps & CI/CD

Pipelines that ship in minutes, not hours. Build optimisation, release automation, environment promotion and GitOps-driven deployments.

Infrastructure as Code

Reusable Terraform modules and Ansible roles, a sane state strategy and review gates — so infrastructure changes stop being scary.

Observability

Metrics, logs and traces that answer questions instead of generating noise. Prometheus, Grafana and ELK with alerting people actually trust.

FinOps & Cost Control

Find the spend that delivers nothing, then build the guardrails that keep it gone: rightsizing, commitments, lifecycle policies and tagging discipline.

SuperPentest

AI Security Cloud Platform

An autonomous AI penetration testing platform for web applications, APIs and AI agents. Given an approved scope and test identities, it maps the attack surface, probes real authorization boundaries and returns replayable, control-verified evidence engineers can act on — instead of another queue of scanner alerts.

Platform engineering

A senior engineer, not a slide deck

I design, build and hand over the platform — then your team owns it.

AWS GCP

Hands-on delivery

I write the Terraform and debug the cluster myself. Advice always comes with implementation, not a document you have to turn into one.

Knowledge that stays

Runbooks, architecture decision records and hands-on sessions, so the platform keeps running long after the engagement ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still unclear on something? Bring it to the free call.

What happens in the free consultation?

A 15-minute call where we go through your current infrastructure, the bottleneck you're hitting, and the realistic options to fix it. You leave with a concrete direction — whether or not we end up working together.

Do you work with teams outside Latvia?

Yes. Engagements run remotely across European and US time zones. On-site workshops and architecture sessions are available on request.

Which cloud platforms do you support?

AWS is the primary focus — backed by AWS Solutions Architect Professional and DevOps Engineer Professional certifications. GCP, plus hybrid and on-premises Kubernetes, are also fully supported.

Can you help reduce our cloud bill?

Yes — cost work is a dedicated service. It starts with finding spend that delivers nothing, then covers rightsizing, commitment planning, storage lifecycle policies and a tagging model so the savings don't erode after the engagement ends.

One-off projects or ongoing retainers?

Both. The common formats are a fixed-scope architecture review, a delivery project such as a Kubernetes migration or CI/CD rebuild, or a monthly advisory retainer alongside an in-house platform team.

How do we get started?

Book the free 15-minute consultation. After the call you get a short written summary with the recommended scope, a timeline and a clear next step.

My approach

Infrastructure that earns its keep

Planned around what your team actually needs, built with automation and observability from day one.

Platform engineering

End-to-end cloud delivery

A cloud platform isn't a Terraform repo and a cluster. It's the architecture underneath, the pipeline that ships to it, the dashboards that explain it and the cost model that keeps it affordable. I work across all four, so the pieces fit instead of fighting each other. After go-live the work continues — ongoing support and optimisation keep the platform sustainable as the team and the traffic grow.
