03 · Mission

We build software the way infrastructure used to be built — to outlast the people who deploy it. Quiet, observable, boring on purpose.

Architecture · Operations · Stewardship
04 · Core services

Eight practices, one engineering culture.

Each practice operates with shared standards for architecture review, security, and operational readiness.

01

Custom Software

Domain-driven apps built to live in production for a decade.

02

Web Development

Performance-budgeted, accessible, search-optimized interfaces.

03

Cloud Solutions

Cost-modeled platforms on AWS, Azure, GCP and hybrid metal.

04

Cybersecurity

Zero-trust, identity, perimeter, monitoring and response.

05

IT Consulting

Architecture reviews, roadmaps and engineering due diligence.

06

Automation

Workflow, RPA and pipeline automation for back-office leverage.

07

Infrastructure

24/7 SRE, observability and disaster recovery operations.

08

Data & Analytics

Warehouses, pipelines and decision systems with governance.

05 · Software development

Software written as if you'll have to operate it on a Sunday.

Our engineers ship behind feature flags, on trunk, with observability and rollback designed in from day one. Architecture decisions are recorded; tradeoffs are explicit; complexity is rented, not bought.

Trunk-based delivery
Multiple shipped commits per day.
ADR-led architecture
Every decision documented.
Type safety end-to-end
From DB schema to UI props.
Operational ownership
You build it, you page for it.
deploy.ts — production
// glass/deploy
import { pipeline } from "@glass/ci";

export const release = pipeline({
  name: "checkout-service",
  strategy: "canary",
  gates: ["unit", "integration",
          "security-scan", "load"],
  observability: {
    traces:  true,
    metrics: ["latency_p99", "error_rate"],
    slo:     { availability: 99.95 },
  },
});
06 · Cloud & infrastructure

Platforms that scale with your business — and your budget.

From greenfield landing zones to legacy migrations, we build cloud platforms that finance, security and engineering can all defend. Cost is treated as a first-class architectural constraint.

  • Landing zones · multi-account governance
  • Migration · lift, refactor or replatform
  • FinOps · cost models and unit economics
  • Edge · CDN, WAF and global routing

07 · Cybersecurity

Security is a property of the system — not a checkbox.

We embed security into the architecture: identity-first design, hardened pipelines, secrets discipline, continuous monitoring and incident playbooks rehearsed before they're needed.

08 · Business automation

Quietly removing the busywork around your best people.

Process discovery

We map the work as it actually happens — not as it appears in slides.

Integration fabric

Event-driven backbones connecting ERP, CRM, finance and operational systems.

Continuous improvement

Metrics-driven iteration with humans in the loop where it matters.

09 · How we work

A delivery cadence that is calm, visible and reversible.

  1. Step 01

    Discover

    Stakeholders, risks, constraints, success metrics.

  2. Step 02

    Design

    Architecture, interfaces, security model, runbook.

  3. Step 03

    Deliver

    Trunk-based, incremental, behind feature flags.

  4. Step 04

    Operate

    SLOs, dashboards, alerts, on-call, post-mortems.

  5. Step 05

    Evolve

    Quarterly reviews and reinvestment of saved capacity.
