Technical Consulting & Architecture

Senior-level architecture, audits, performance tuning & CTO-level guidance for scalable digital products.

We help companies in Berlin and across Germany make the right technical decisions — from early architecture planning and codebase audits to system redesigns, high-load scaling, and long-term engineering strategy. Our consulting combines enterprise engineering expertise with hands-on design, giving teams a clear, actionable roadmap instead of generic advice. Whether you want to validate a new product idea, prepare for scale, modernize an outdated platform, or solve mission-critical stability issues, we guide your team with senior-level engineering leadership, tailored to real business needs.
