  • Observability and SLOs
  • SOC2 / PCI compliance
Differentiators

Why a specialized SRE

Generic cloud is for getting started. When your product grows — microservices, Kubernetes, multiple regions, compliance — you need someone with real experience operating production at scale. Not a generalist, a specialist.

GCP and GKE specialization

Not generalists who dabble in everything. We run GCP and Google Kubernetes Engine as our primary focus.

Istio certification (ICA)

One of the few professionals in LatAm with the CNCF Istio Certified Associate credential.

Experience in regulated environments

Hands-on SOC2 and PCI running production for a Fortune 500 financial. Not theory.

Fractional model

You pay only for the hours you need. No headcount, no long onboarding, no payroll overhead.

Honest filter

Who it’s for and who it’s not for

We’d rather lose a client up front than deliver something outside our specialty.

Who it’s for
  • B2B SaaS with product in production
  • Companies with microservices on Kubernetes
  • Startups that migrated to GCP and need governance
  • Software houses needing a cloud specialist for their projects
  • Companies with compliance requirements (SOC2, PCI, local regulation)
Who it’s NOT for
  • Companies that aren’t in the cloud yet → we recommend starting with our Cloud Infrastructure service.
  • Operations that require dedicated 24/7 on-call → you need an in-house team or an MSP.
  • Stacks outside our specialty: Azure as primary, deep AWS, or pure on-premise.

Is your infrastructure starting to feel too big for one person? Let’s talk.
