Big Data & Analytics

Your data, always available and ready to use.

We design and build data platforms that handle real-world scale — from raw ingestion to live dashboards — so your teams always have the data they need to decide.

What We Build

Three practice areas

End-to-end data stack coverage — from raw pipeline to the dashboard your CEO uses every morning.

Data Engineering

We build the pipelines that move, transform, and deliver your data — batch at scale and in real time. ETL/ELT from any source, streaming with Kafka and Spark, and integration with Snowflake, BigQuery, and Databricks. Data quality and lineage included.

Data Warehouse & Modelling

A well-designed warehouse is the foundation of every data-driven organisation. We design dimensional models, integrate data from operational systems and third-party APIs, optimise query performance, and implement governance policies that scale.

BI & Analytics

We turn raw data into dashboards and reports that decision-makers actually use. Interactive, always connected to live data, and designed for self-service — so teams stop waiting on data requests.

Selected data platform projects from our portfolio — real results, anonymised where requested.

Client

Structural monitoring & IoT company

Scope

Real-time IoT sensor data platform on AWS

Built an end-to-end platform ingesting billions of sensor events per day using Apache Spark and InfluxDB. Query time reduced by 40% through time-series optimisation. 99.9% uptime with Terraform-automated infrastructure and Grafana dashboards providing real-time operational visibility.

Scope

Petabyte-scale Cloudera/Spark stabilisation

Identified and fixed root causes of corruption in a petabyte-scale Cloudera distribution. Optimised Spark job algorithms, enabling daily job runs that were previously too slow. Migrated from Cloudera to vanilla Hadoop with HA master, eliminating vendor lock-in entirely.

Scope

End-to-end AWS data platform: ETL, ML, and BI

Delivered a unified data platform covering the full lifecycle — raw ingestion through ETL to ML models and executive BI dashboards. Built on AWS with SageMaker for real-time predictions and QuickSight for cross-departmental reporting.

How We Engage

Three ways to work with us

From a two-week diagnostic to a fully embedded team — structured around where you are in your data journey.

Productised

2 weeks · Fixed price

Data Platform Audit

A structured review of your current data architecture: pipeline reliability, warehouse design, cost efficiency, and analytics gaps. Delivered as a prioritised roadmap with effort estimates.

6–16 weeks

Pipeline & Warehouse Build

Fixed-scope delivery of a data pipeline, warehouse layer, or BI system. Clear milestones, weekly check-ins, handover with full documentation and runbooks.

Ongoing

Embedded Data Engineering

Senior data engineers embedded in your team. Ideal for organisations scaling their data platform or building out a new analytics capability.

Our Standards

What we don't do

We work with companies that are serious about their data. That means being direct about the shortcuts we won't take.

Build warehouses without data quality checks — garbage in, garbage out

Dashboard sprawl disconnected from a reliable source of truth

Pipelines that work in dev but fail silently in production

Lock you into proprietary tools when open standards serve you better
