This is an illustrative sample, not a real engagement. Your real case study could go here.
The challenge
A 30-engineer team had outgrown their early platform. Deploys took 40 minutes, on-call was paged ~5 times a week, and shipping a new service required hand-holding from the SRE team.
What we did
- Replaced their bespoke deploy scripts with a thin GitOps layer (Argo CD) on top of Kustomize.
- Stood up a golden-path service template covering OpenTelemetry, Sentry, healthchecks, and SLOs.
- Tightened CI: parallelized tests, cached dependencies, killed the integration suite that wasn't catching anything.
- Trained the platform team on the new patterns, paired for two weeks, then handed off.
What success looked like
- Deploy time: 40 min → 6 min.
- Pages per week: 5 → 1.
- New-service onboarding: half a day → 30 minutes.
