Who it is for

Product teams establishing a dependable service layer
Organisations connecting several systems
Teams preparing a migration or a clearer API boundary

Problems we solve

Data ownership is unclear across systems
Permissions and integrations have grown without a shared boundary
An existing backend makes common changes risky or difficult to understand

What we build

APIs, databases and service boundaries
Authentication and permission models
Third-party integration planning
Migration and reliability-oriented engineering work

What you receive

A backend direction with visible data ownership, access rules, integration contracts and failure cases.

API and data-model direction
Authentication and permission requirements
Integration, migration and failure-handling plans
Performance and operational considerations appropriate to scope

How we work

Clarify what the service must protect

Map the data, actors, permissions, dependencies and failure paths around one important product capability.

Data and ownership questions
Access and integration boundaries
Known operational and migration risks

Technology and integrations

The technical approach follows the product, data boundaries and integration requirements. We make external-system access, ownership and release needs visible before implementation where they affect the scope.

Engagement model

The work can begin with focused discovery, move into a product design-and-build phase, or continue around an existing product when an ongoing model is agreed.

Explore ways to work together

Boundaries and checks

Not included unless agreed

Security or compliance certification claims
Production access changes without an approved owner process
Undocumented data migration assumptions

What we check early

Sensitive data without clear ownership
External dependencies with untested failure behaviour
Migration scope that is larger than the visible feature suggests

Frequently asked questions

Can backend work begin without redesigning the whole product?

Yes. A focused capability or integration can be scoped first, provided its data and dependency boundaries are understood.

Are migrations part of the work?

They can be, after the source data, ownership, rollback needs and operating constraints are assessed.
