20+ years designing and operating distributed systems, data platforms, and AI infrastructure at scale. AKS Engineering offers select architecture advisory, technical reviews, and principal engineering engagements.
You may need this if:
Engagements range from one-time architecture audits to ongoing embedded advisory work.
LLM application architecture, RAG pipeline design, agent orchestration frameworks, evaluation infrastructure, and production guardrails for AI systems.
Schema design, query optimization, migration strategy, and operational runbooks for PostgreSQL, MongoDB, vector databases, and multi-model data platforms.
Multi-region architecture, reliability engineering, cost optimization, and system design for AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI. CAP theorem tradeoffs made concrete.
In-depth technical review of existing systems: design gaps, scaling bottlenecks, security posture, and a prioritized remediation roadmap you can act on.
Cloud spend analysis, right-sizing, and reservation strategy across AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI. Software license inventory system design — tracking entitlements, usage, and renewal exposure at scale.
Principal engineering advisory, engineering strategy, hiring criteria, and technical due diligence for investors and acquirers evaluating a codebase or team.
Team workshops on distributed systems, database internals, and production architecture patterns. Interview-ready system design preparation for senior engineers.
No retainer traps. No mystery pricing. Three steps from first contact to active work.
30-minute free call. You describe the problem; we dig into the questions that usually get skipped. No pitch deck, no NDA required to start.
Written proposal with clear deliverables, timeline, and fixed-price or retainer options. No surprise invoices at the end of the month.
Advisory calls, async Slack reviews, written architecture documents, or fully embedded work — matched to what your team actually needs.
