Infrastructure-first IaC, GitOps pipelines, container platforms on ECS and EKS. Internal developer platforms your engineers actually want to use.
Rightsizing, Savings Plans strategy, and architectural changes that cut bills by 30–60%. We show our math and the tradeoffs — no shady vendor kickbacks.
IAM least-privilege, SCPs, GuardDuty, Security Hub, and encryption everywhere. Audit-ready posture for SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI without turning every engineer into a compliance clerk.
Bedrock, SageMaker, and open-source models on your own VPC. RAG pipelines, evals, and production deployment patterns — for workloads that have to earn their compute.
Sprawling AWS accounts with no governance, no guardrails, and no visibility.
ECS is hitting its limits but a botched Kubernetes migration is a bigger risk.
Single-cloud lock-in is a business risk your architecture shouldn't carry.
The AWS bill keeps growing but nobody owns it and finance is asking questions.
Traffic spikes expose every architectural shortcut and the post-mortem is always the same.
IAM is a mess, secrets live in env vars, and SOC 2 is on the horizon.
Based on prior production AWS work across EdTech, retail, recruitment, and telecom.
The client was modernizing the AWS estate behind its education platform as student load scaled across Europe. We architected a multi-account migration on Infrastructure + CloudFormation, rolled out GitLab CI/CD with automated gates, and stood up enterprise monitoring on DataDog and CloudWatch. Security posture was hardened with automated vulnerability scanning and compliance checks against education-sector regulations.
A Berlin-based recruitment platform serving millions of job seekers. We led an AWS modernization combining Infrastructure-with-Atlantis IaC, CircleCI pipelines, and a DataDog + CloudTrail + Inspector + GuardDuty observability and security framework. The platform stayed online through the migration, deployment cycle time dropped ~Flexible, and the ops team got a real on-call story for the first time.
A Fortune-500 retailer needed performance and cost improvements across AWS workloads powering store and e-commerce operations. We ran a full architecture assessment, delivered an ROI-prioritized roadmap, and shipped the fixes with Infrastructure and Python automation. A unified DataDog + PagerDuty framework replaced a patchwork of alerting tools — on-call noise dropped substantially.
A major telecommunications provider was moving core services to AWS. We served as strategic AWS advisor: designed the landing zone, set standardized Infrastructure IaC practices, and built Jenkins + GitLab CI/CD pipelines that collapsed release cycle time. Hands-on workshops with internal teams made sure the handoff stuck after we rolled off.
We listen to the problem, ask uncomfortable questions, and tell you honestly whether we're the right team. No forms, no SDRs, no upsells.
Read-only access to your AWS accounts. We produce a tight report: what's working, what's bleeding money, what will break under load, and where to start.
We work inside your tools and repos, shipping AWS, DevOps, security, cost, and platform improvements with your team.
We leave clean docs and decisions. If the work keeps paying off, extend the embedded support.
10 hrs/week of senior AWS help for cloud architecture, DevOps, security, and platform decisions.
Hands-on AWS/platform help embedded into your team for delivery-heavy work.
A focused 2–4 week sprint for a migration, cost cleanup, security hardening, or CI/CD fix.
“They rebuilt our deployment pipeline and the AWS estate underneath it. Release cadence went from cautious to boring — in the best possible way. They leave behind documentation and Infrastructure our team can maintain.”
“We needed infra that could grow with the business without the usual firefighting. Skylynk delivered Infrastructure, CircleCI, and a DataDog setup that made on-call predictable. Flexible faster deploys was the headline; the durability of the setup is what actually matters.”
“Straightforward, senior, and unafraid to push back when we were about to make a bad call. The architecture assessment paid for itself in the first quarter. We'd bring them back tomorrow.”
Written by the engineers who build it.
The Jupyter notebook ran. The demo landed. Now someone said "put it in production" and the room went quiet. The gap is wider than most teams expect.
Administrator access on every principal. Long-lived keys in CI/CD. Secrets in environment variables. Most AWS accounts are one leaked credential away from a full breach.
Dev, staging, and prod in one account. IAM as a flat list of users. One misconfigured security group away from a bad day. Here is what the right structure actually looks like.
45-minute discovery call. No sales pitch — just a conversation with a senior engineer about what you're building.
