Internal Developer Portal
A single pane of glass for developers. Service catalog, documentation, runbooks, and self-service actions.
- Backstage implementation
- Port / Cortex / OpsLevel
- Service catalog design

Platform Engineering
Internal platforms and golden paths that let developers ship without filing tickets: self-service environments, standardized templates, and guardrails instead of gatekeepers.
Need a new environment? File a ticket. Need a database? File a ticket. Developers wait days for things that should take minutes.
Every team does things differently. Different CI/CD, different monitoring, different patterns. No consistency, no reuse.
"Ask Steve, he knows how to deploy" — tribal knowledge instead of clear, self-service paths to production.
New engineers take weeks to ship their first feature. Too much context to absorb, too many systems to learn.
A single pane of glass for developers. Service catalog, documentation, runbooks, and self-service actions.
Paved roads to production. Standardized templates that make the right way the easy way.
Developers provision what they need, when they need it. Guardrails ensure compliance without tickets.
Optimize the inner loop. Fast local development, quick feedback, minimal context switching.
Expose platform capabilities as APIs. Let teams integrate and extend.
Build internal platform engineering capability. We help you hire, structure, and level up your platform team.
2 days → 2 hours
Implemented Backstage with golden path templates. New services go from idea to deployed in 2 hours instead of 2 days.
-80%
Self-service infrastructure reduced DevOps ticket volume by 80%. Team now focuses on platform improvements, not ticket queues.
1 week
With clear golden paths and documentation, new engineers ship their first PR to production in their first week.
When developer friction is slowing down the business. Signs: long lead times for new services, DevOps team is a bottleneck, inconsistent practices across teams, slow onboarding. Usually makes sense at 20+ engineers.
Backstage (Spotify) is the open-source leader — highly customizable, strong community. Commercial options (Port, Cortex, OpsLevel) are easier to start with. We recommend based on your team size and customization needs.
Policy as code. Resources are provisioned through templates that enforce security standards. Developers get freedom within guardrails — they can't accidentally create public S3 buckets or over-permissive IAM roles.
Eventually, yes. You can start with DevOps/SRE folks spending part-time on platform work. At ~50 engineers, a dedicated platform team (2-4 people) usually pays off. We can help you structure this.
We'll assess your current developer experience, identify the highest-impact improvements, and help you build a platform roadmap.
