Platform Development · Houston
We design and build the platform underneath the product: APIs, data, cloud and the reliability work that decides whether you scale or stall. Built for Houston teams who would rather ship than re-platform in a year.
Trusted by teams across Australia, North America and beyond
Sound familiar?
Houston is energy plus the world's largest medical center — operational data, safety and reliability are where a platform has to earn its place.
Houston platform problems are operational and regulated: energy with historian/SCADA and sensor data at volume, health systems in the Texas Medical Center under HIPAA, and aerospace engineering data.
We integrate operational and historian data into the cloud across the OT/IT boundary, build HIPAA-aware clinical pipelines, and engineer for the reliability safety-critical energy operations demand — with ClickHouse + Superset for analytics.

1"Our backend was built to reach launch. Now it slows every release down."
2"We are moving to enterprise customers and our architecture was never designed for it."
3"Our data sits in five systems and nobody trusts the numbers on the dashboard."
4"We pay per seat for Tableau, Power BI or Looker and the bill grows faster than revenue."
5"We have outages we cannot explain and no real observability to find out why."
What we do
Every engagement starts with a 30-minute call. If we cannot tell you something useful in that window, we do not take the work on.
APIs, services and data models designed for where you are going, so new features do not add fragility.
Pipelines, warehouse and a semantic layer, so the dashboard, the product and finance agree on the numbers.
Apache Superset and ClickHouse inside your product in place of per-seat BI. A stack we run ourselves.
AWS, Google Cloud or Azure done properly: infrastructure as code, CI/CD, secrets and cost guardrails.
Tenant isolation, row-level security and per-tenant configuration, so you can sell to enterprise without a rebuild.
SLOs, tracing, logging and alerting that tell you what broke and why, before the customer does.
Outcomes
We measure ourselves on what your team does differently afterwards, not on hours billed.
Typical BI licensing reduction when per-seat tools give way to embedded Superset and ClickHouse.
Tenant isolation and row-level security that let you sell to enterprise without a rebuild.
CI/CD, infrastructure as code and observability, so releases are routine and outages explainable.
Everything lands in your repo and your cloud account. No black box, no lock-in to us.
How we engage
A two-week diagnostic of architecture, data and reliability: what to fix first, what to retire, what breaks at the next scale step.

We design for HIPAA where health data is in scope, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and state privacy law such as CCPA and CPRA.
We are headquartered in Sydney and work with Houston teams remote-first, in your timezone, with on-site visits for kickoff and key milestones when needed.

Questions
Straight answers to what Houston teams ask before they book.
We are headquartered in Sydney and work with Houston teams remote-first, in your timezone, with on-site visits for kickoff and key milestones when needed. We work with teams across Downtown, the Energy Corridor and the Texas Medical Center.
A two-week Platform Assessment can start the Monday after the scoping call. Larger engagements usually begin one to two weeks out.
Yes. We contract and price in USD. We design for HIPAA where health data is in scope, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and state privacy law such as CCPA and CPRA.
Yes. We meet the codebase, cloud and tools you already run, and only recommend a change when staying clearly costs more than moving.
Yes. We run Apache Superset and ClickHouse embedded inside our own products, so it is an architecture we operate, not just recommend.
Yes — we bridge historian, SCADA and operational systems into a cloud platform across the OT/IT boundary, securely.
Yes — isolation, audit trails and lineage designed in, for the clinical and research data the Medical Center generates.
Both, and we never advise without being willing to build. If the answer is Apache Superset, we stand it up. If it is a senior hire, we write the spec and sit on the panel.
