Senior expertise, by the slice
A named SRE, Architect or Delivery Lead for a few days a month. Full time when you need it.
The problem
You need senior judgement on reliability, architecture or delivery, and one named person accountable for it.
How we’re different
You get senior ownership, not extra hands. A peer covers when your expert is away, and the community of 150+ is there for specific skills.
Three roles
Fractional SRE & DevOps
Builds and improves infrastructure, reliability, security, observability and delivery.
Hire us when
Incidents keep repeating and no one owns reliability.
A typical month
SLOs and alerting reviewed, incident reviews, an upgrade plan and on-call coaching.
Their FikaWorks Agent
Triages alerts, answers platform questions and suggests runbook steps. Early access.
Fractional Architect
Guides platform architecture and sovereign cloud decisions.
Hire us when
Big platform or cloud choices have no senior owner.
A typical month
Architecture decisions recorded, a target design, vendor and cloud choices, and design reviews.

Fractional Delivery Lead

Hire us when

Their FikaWorks Agent
Builds status from tickets and repositories and flags blocked work. Planned.
Fractional, or full time when you need it
Fractional
A few days a month
Your expert works on a fixed rhythm you can plan around, and you adjust the number of days month by month.

- A peer covers when your expert is away
- Agent support between working days
Option: full time
Part of your team, every day
For a big programme, a migration or a gap in your leadership team: your expert joins full time for a set period and owns the direction day to day.
- The same named person, every working day
- Backed by the cooperative and the community of 150+
- Moves to fractional when the peak is over
