Scheduling and machine automation for a round-the-clock manufacturing process
- The problem
- Planners scheduled jobs and prepared machine instructions by hand, and every mistake stopped production.
- Our contribution
- Software engineering. Built job scheduling, production planning and automatic generation of machine instructions, connected the software to machines on the production floor for live tracking, and added quality-inspection apps.
- ~40% less manual effort
- ~25% less downtime
- ~30% better defect detection
Relevant capabilitiesProduction scheduling, machine integration, real-time tracking, quality-inspection apps
Quotation-to-tracking platform for a freight business
- The problem
- Quotes, bookings, containers and inventory lived in separate tools.
- Our contribution
- Technical leadership and engineering. Led a team of five through design documents and delivery of quotation, booking, container-tracking and inventory modules, built as event-driven services with sprint demos for the client.
- ~20% fewer rework cycles
- Team of 5 led
Relevant capabilitiesEvent-driven architecture, serverless on AWS, CI/CD, quotation, booking and inventory workflows
Approval centre for purchase orders, invoices and expenses
- The problem
- Managers approved spend from email threads and had no single place to decide.
- Our contribution
- UX and workflow design. Designed web and mobile apps for approving POs, invoices, expense claims and access requests, plus timesheet and capex tracking, visitor management and user-role administration.
Relevant capabilitiesUX research, workflow design, design systems, responsive web and mobile UX, developer handoff
Faster, safer releases across a large AWS estate
- The problem
- Releases ran through ageing Jenkins jobs and access rules were maintained by hand.
- Our contribution
- Cloud and release engineering. Migrated pipelines to GitHub Actions, built reusable templates for EKS and Lambda, automated IAM with Terraform Cloud and connected incident handling to ServiceNow.
- 40% faster releases
- 45% shorter release cycles
- 25% lower EKS and runner cost
- 70% faster incident turnaround
Relevant capabilitiesCI/CD, infrastructure as code, IAM automation, release engineering, Kubernetes
One release process across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud
- The problem
- Three clouds, three ways of shipping, and security findings piling up.
- Our contribution
- Cloud, platform and security engineering. Built multi-cloud CI/CD with GitHub Actions, Jenkins and Terraform, tuned EKS autoscaling and health checks, fixed cloud-security findings end to end and automated access requests.
- 35% fewer deployment errors
- 30% better uptime and scaling
- 50% faster access tickets
Relevant capabilitiesMulti-cloud CI/CD, Kubernetes, cloud security, access automation
Edge infrastructure for a multi-location consumer brand
- The problem
- Hundreds of locations need low-latency services that can be updated safely.
- Our contribution
- Cloud and platform engineering. Run and scale edge servers through infrastructure as code, with security scanning in every deployment, and design the release lifecycle and access model.
Relevant capabilitiesGoogle Cloud, infrastructure as code, security scanning, release management
Computer vision that grades seed quality
- The problem
- Inspectors sorted seeds by eye, slowly and inconsistently.
- Our contribution
- Computer vision engineering. Built a camera rig that photographs both sides of each seed and trained a model to separate pure from impure seed, and discoloured from broken.
- ~92% accuracy
- 50,000+ labelled images
- ~60% less manual inspection
Relevant capabilitiesImage capture, model training and evaluation, inspection workflows
Tenant and payments features for a property platform
- The problem
- A growing platform needed secure transaction APIs and fewer incidents.
- Our contribution
- Backend engineering. Built tenant-management features and REST APIs for financial transactions, and improved stability in production.
- ~15% fewer incidents
Relevant capabilitiesREST APIs, transaction workflows, production stability
Leads, customers and orders in one platform
- The problem
- Small businesses tracked sales in spreadsheets and missed follow-ups.
- Our contribution
- Full-stack engineering. Built a cloud SaaS for lead lifecycle and order processing, with SMS notifications to customers.
- ~25% better customer response
Relevant capabilitiesCloud SaaS, lead and order workflows, customer notifications
Operations dashboards and a field sales app (two projects)
- The problem
- Operations teams and field reps worked across too many screens.
- Our contribution
- UX design. Two separate projects: booking, master-data and agent dashboards for a ride-hailing and logistics operator, and a mobile-first lead-capture app for a medical-devices sales team.
Relevant capabilitiesUX design, operations dashboards, mobile-first apps, prototyping, usability testing
