Software product engineering

Golden paths, secure services and SRE for platforms that ship quickly and run reliably.

Golden paths and internal developer portal

Developers thrive when friction is removed. We codify best practices as reusable templates, scaffolds and paved roads exposed through an internal developer portal. New services are created with security, observability and SRE standards pre‑wired. This consistency reduces cognitive load and accelerates onboarding.

Secure APIs and microservices

APIs are the contracts of your business. We unify standards for versioning, authn/authz, rate limits and deprecation. Microservices are right‑sized with clear domain boundaries to avoid distributed‑monolith pitfalls. Observability includes traces and exemplars tied to user journeys so reliability is measured where it matters.

SRE and reliability

SLOs define expectations between platform teams and product teams. We implement error budgets and progressive delivery to keep user experience stable while shipping quickly. Incident response is automated with runbooks and chatops. The outcome is fewer pages after hours and faster recovery when issues occur.

What we deliver

  • Golden paths and internal developer portal
  • Service templates, APIs, and secure microservices
  • Observability, SRE SLOs, error budgets, and incident playbooks
  • DevEx improvements that cut lead time and raise quality

Why it matters

  • AI-native engineering: Engineering practices shift to integrate AI agents, evaluation and ModelOps into product life cycles (Gartner).
  • Throughput: Strong DevEx correlates with shorter lead time and higher reliability (industry DORA research).
