CE Cloud Elevate
Services

Cloud, AI and software — built and run by senior engineers.

Three things we do, and we do them properly. No SAFe ceremonies, no offshore handoffs, no slide‑deck delivery. Lean engineering teams that turn up, build the thing, and either hand it over or stay on to operate it.

What we do

Three services. One accountable team.

Each engagement is bespoke. We scope to your control framework, your timeline and your budget — then deliver against it.

01 · Foundations build & run

Secure cloud foundations

Landing zones, networking and policy‑as‑code aligned to your control framework — IRAP, Essential Eight, ISM, APRA CPS 234. Most clients are running production workloads within six weeks.

  • AWS, Azure and Google Cloud landing zones
  • Network architecture and segmentation
  • Policy‑as‑code and continuous compliance
  • Migration of legacy systems
  • Disaster recovery and resilience testing
  • FinOps and cost governance

03 · Operate support

Operate and improve

Once it's live, our team can keep it running. Site reliability, security operations and ongoing improvements — one accountable team, local hours.

  • Site reliability and on‑call
  • Security operations and incident response
  • Modernisation of legacy applications
  • API design and integration
  • Cost management and capacity planning
  • Continuous improvement, weekly reporting

Fixed‑scope packages

Need to spend end‑of‑year capex?

Two short, fixed‑price engagements designed to land before 30 June. Both produce something tangible — a report, a roadmap, a working system — not a stack of slides.

Resilience & readiness audit

Senior engineers embed with your team for four to six weeks and deliver a detailed assessment of how your platforms will behave under stress — and a prioritised plan to fix what won't.

  • Failure‑mode analysis and chaos testing
  • DR, RTO and RPO review
  • Security posture and IRAP gap analysis
  • Executive briefing and remediation plan

Red‑team simulation plan

A structured red‑team and chaos‑engineering exercise against production‑like systems, designed and run by people who've done this for Defence and the Big Four banks. Capitalisable as capex.

  • Custom red‑team and blue‑team playbooks
  • Live‑fire chaos exercises in a clone environment
  • After‑action report with severity ratings
  • Remediation guidance and rerun option

Platforms we work across

Your stack, not ours.

We're cloud‑agnostic. Our engineers have hands‑on production experience across the major platforms and the modern tooling that ties them together.

Why us

Six reasons clients keep coming back.

Plainly: we're a small team of senior engineers, we live in Canberra, and we don't sub the work out.

01

Mission‑critical experience

Decades of hands‑on delivery for Australian Government, Defence and Intelligence agencies. We've built systems that genuinely cannot fail.

02

Lean delivery

No bloated process, no slide‑deck theatre. Senior engineers shipping working software, with weekly progress in writing.

03

Deep technical expertise

We understand both the technology and the regulatory context — Essential Eight, IRAP, ISM, APRA CPS 234, Privacy Act.

04

Honest scoping

We'll tell you when something is the wrong shape, the wrong time, or simply not worth doing. Including when it's our own idea.

05

Local team, on call

Australian hours, Australian phone numbers, Australian citizens with appropriate clearances. Nothing gets sent offshore.

06

End‑to‑end accountability

From first conversation to running it in production, you deal with the same team. One throat to choke when something goes wrong.

Talk to us
