The Problems

Is Your DevOps Infrastructure Holding Your Team Back?

Companies that come to us are usually dealing with one or more of these

You've probably tried to fix them

Slow, fragile deployments

Because every release needs manual oversight. The team batches deploys because the process breaks when it runs too often.

Infrastructure knowledge concentrated in one or two people.

If they leave, the system becomes a black box. Nobody else can confidently deploy, debug, or explain why it works the way it does.

Automation that stalled halfway

Because the CI/CD pipeline covers some things but not others. Environments drift. The gap between what's automated and what isn't grows every quarter.

Engineers stuck in operations

When the people you hired to build your automation strategy spend their weeks firefighting config drift instead.

You've probably tried to fix them

Hired DevOps engineers who got consumed by daily maintenance

Brought in offshore help that couldn't make architectural decisions without constant direction

Started building internally and stalled when complexity outpaced the team's experience

Infrastructure at scale requires diagnostic depth that's hard to hire for and expensive to learn on production systems.
Why Pelotech

Why Engineering Teams Choose Pelotech for DevOps Automation

Diagnosis Before Implementation

The problem in the statement of work is rarely the actual problem. We start every engagement by finding the real one before building anything.

Senior Engineers Who Write Code, Not Slide Decks

The people who scope your engagement are the ones writing your Terraform modules, designing your CI/CD architecture, and building your GitOps workflows. No junior staffing swaps after the contract is signed.

Production-Ready in Months, Not Years

A client needed to replace a third-party virtualization layer their team had estimated at two to three years. Three Pelotech engineers finished it in four months. Multi-year estimates for infrastructure work usually reflect a scoping problem, not complexity.

Full Ownership Transfer

Client engineers work alongside ours from day one. Every architectural decision gets documented with the reasoning behind it. If your team can't explain, modify, and recover the system without us, the work isn't finished.

What We Do

Our DevOps Automation Capabilities

CI/CD Pipeline Architecture

Automated, repeatable build-test-deploy workflows that replace manual releases and production babysitting.

GitOps Implementation

Git as the single source of truth for infrastructure state. Reproducible deployments, full audit trails, and routine disaster recovery.

Kubernetes Architecture and Migration

Cluster design, migrations, cost optimization, and operations for teams that have outgrown manual environment management.

Observability & Monitoring

Monitoring that informs decisions, not just collects data. We reduce observability spend by up to 10x without losing visibility.

Cloud Cost Optimization

Infrastructure audits that identify wasted spend, redundant tooling, and over-provisioned resources. Savings often fund the engagement itself.

Infrastructure as Code

Version-controlled environment definitions that eliminate drift between what's declared and what's actually running.

Mid-to-large SaaS, FinTech, and technology companies

That have hit product-market fit but accumulated infrastructure debt.
Typically post-Series B/C or PE-backed, running on AWS, and moving toward or already using Kubernetes. Internal complexity has outpaced the team's capacity to manage it.

Government contractors and agencies

That need cloud-native solutions meeting federal security standards. GovCloud environments, FedRAMP certification, and infrastructure built for compliance from day one. Learn more about our GovCloud consulting

EdTech and cybersecurity platforms

Serving regulated sectors where uptime, security, and scalability requirements go beyond what standard cloud setups can deliver.

Case studies

Proven Results from Real Engagements

Stem Learning Cloud Migration

Facing an "impossible" three-month deadline and stringent security requirements, STEM Learning entrusted Pelotech with migrating an on-premises application to a cloud-native application on AWS. Pelotec completed the migration ahead of schedule and under budget, delivering an 8x faster transition than initially anticipated.

Ultimate Knowledge Institute

Pelotech partnered with Ultimate Knowledge Institute (UKi), a government-aligned organization, to modernize their cloud infrastructure using Kubernetes. The company partnered with Pelotech after facing difficulty hiring individual cloud experts. This collaboration eliminated costly third-party dependencies, optimized their AWS architecture, and paved the way for FedRAMP certification.

Our Process

End-to-End DevOps Automation in Months, Not Years

Most engagements are completed in 3 to 5 months.

(1–2 weeks)
Diagnosis

We walk through your infrastructure with your team, map dependencies, identify confidence gaps, and define the actual problem.

Success criteria are set before implementation begins.

(2–4 months)
Implementation

Time-boxed sprints with your engineers embedded throughout.

Each sprint delivers a working infrastructure against the criteria from phase one.

(2–4 weeks)
Knowledge Transfer

Structured ownership transition. Pairing sessions, architecture decision records, and runbook reviews.

Your team takes full control once engagement ends.

Talk to Our Engineers

No sales team. The engineers on the call are the ones who do the work. Tell us what's going on with your infrastructure, and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does DevOps automation consulting cost?

Pricing depends on scope, team size, and duration. We structure project-based engagements with defined deliverables rather than open-ended retainers. We'll scope the work and set success criteria before you commit to anything.

What's the difference between consulting and staff augmentation?

Staff augmentation adds execution capacity when you know what to build. Consulting adds diagnostic and architectural judgment when you don't. We offer both and will recommend whichever fits your situation.

Do you replace our engineering team or work alongside them?

Alongside. Your engineers are embedded from day one. If we build something your team can't maintain independently, the engagement isn't finished.

What tools and platforms do you work with?

AWS, Terraform, Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Flux, Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Docker, Ansible, and others. Tool choice follows diagnosis. We don't prescribe a stack before understanding your system.

Can you work within government compliance requirements?

Yes. We have direct experience with GovCloud environments and FedRAMP certification processes. More on our GovCloud consulting.

What if we're not sure consulting is the right move?

That's what the first conversation is for. We'll ask about your situation and tell you whether consulting, staff augmentation, or something else makes more sense.
