Ship real software, owned by real engineers
Custom software development is building the product itself: frontend, backend, and infrastructure that has to keep working on Monday morning. We do it end to end with senior embedded pods, and you own every line.
30-minute call · no pitch deck · no obligation
Everything this capability ships
Senior-owned, AI-accelerated, and wired into your stack. Not a deck of recommendations.
Product engineering
Web and mobile products from zero to scaled. Senior engineers who care about the user, not just the code.
API and backend
REST, GraphQL, event-driven. Contracts versioned, auth done properly, performance measured.
Databases and data
Schema design, migrations, caching, search. Data models that survive the next three features you have not scoped yet.
Cloud infrastructure
IaC, CI/CD, observability. Infrastructure you can reason about, redeploy, and afford.
Testing and quality
Unit, integration, end-to-end. Automated where it saves time, manual where it catches what automation misses.
Legacy modernisation
Strangle the monolith, lift and shift, or rewrite. We pick the path that keeps the business running.
A platform rebuild that cut response times by 70%
Cobalt Retail · Platform
We re-architected a creaking monolith into clean, well-tested services with CI from day one. We shipped weekly, with observability, alerting, and one-click rollback baked in. The team that built it still runs it.
From first call to production
Kickoff
Pod introductions, environment access, goals alignment. First commit inside the first week.
Architecture and spike
Write the smallest thing that proves the approach. Decisions recorded, trade-offs visible.
Iterative build
Weekly demos, daily stand-ups, continuous delivery. Small increments beat big reveals every time.
Harden and operate
Observability, runbooks, on-call rotation if needed. Your pod carries what it built.
What it actually solves
SaaS products
Multi-tenant platforms with auth, billing, admin, and the rough edges that usually get skipped.
Internal tools
The dashboards, workflow UIs, and back-offices your team asks for but the roadmap never surfaces.
Integrations and data pipelines
Connect the systems that do not talk. ETL, ELT, event streams, and reliable schedulers.
Greenfield MVPs
Idea to launched product, built to survive contact with real users and not collapse in month three.

Questions, answered
Both. We run modernisation projects the same way we run MVPs: small increments, visible trade-offs, always working.
Yes. We match your conventions, your review process, and your CI. You should not be able to tell which PRs are ours.
Your team and ours, same PR. Reviews are where tacit knowledge transfers, so we make them part of the job.
Whatever fits the problem. We pick for the team that will maintain it, not for the stack that looks nicest on a slide.
If your pod runs production, it is on call for production. Incident response is part of the work, not an add-on.
Let’s build it together.
One senior team, one flat monthly subscription, no lock-in. Book a call and we’ll map the fastest path to shipped.
