Services
How I can help your team #
I work with small engineering teams and early-stage startups to design, simplify, and implement DevOps practices and infrastructure that you can actually maintain.
Below are the core services. Each can be adapted to your stack and stage.
1. Minimal DevOps Stack Review #
What it is
A focused review of your current DevOps setup for a single product or small team.
Deliverables
- 60–90 minute live session (call/screen share).
- Written summary of your current stack (CI/CD, environments, cloud, observability, security basics).
- 3–7 concrete, prioritized recommendations for simplification and risk reduction.
When it helps
- You feel the stack is “overbuilt” or chaotic.
- Deployments are fragile or too manual.
- Nobody really owns the infra, and you want a clear plan.
2. MVP Infra & CI/CD Setup #
What it is
End‑to‑end setup of a minimal, production‑ready infrastructure and CI/CD pipeline for your MVP or early product.
Deliverables
- Repo‑level CI/CD pipelines (build, tests, staging/prod deploy).
- Staging + production environments in your chosen cloud.
- Basic observability (metrics, logs, a few critical alerts).
- Short handover session and documentation of what was built.
When it helps
- You’re launching a new product and don’t want to “wing it” with infra.
- You want a clean baseline that your team can extend without you hiring a full‑time DevOps engineer yet.
3. Cloud Cost & Reliability Checkup #
What it is
A light‑weight audit focused on cloud spending and obvious reliability risks.
Deliverables
- Analysis of current cloud resources and bills.
- List of quick wins for cost savings (rightsizing, unused resources, storage/egress issues).
- Identification of major reliability gaps (no backups, no alerts, single points of failure).
- Short written report with suggested next steps.
When it helps
- Cloud bill is creeping up and you’re not sure why.
- You worry about “what happens if X fails” but don’t have time to dig into it.
4. Observability Setup & Tuning #
What it is
Helping you get from “we have some logs somewhere” to a usable, minimal observability stack.
Deliverables
- Agreed minimal metrics and log signals for your services.
- Configuration of metrics/log collection and routing.
- A small set of dashboards and 5–10 meaningful alerts.
- Quick guide for your team on how to use it during incidents.
When it helps
- You get production incidents but can’t quickly understand what happened.
- You have monitoring/logging tools, but nobody feels they’re really useful.
5. Ongoing DevOps Mentoring / Advisory #
What it is
Regular, light‑weight guidance instead of a full‑time DevOps hire.
Format
- Bi‑weekly or monthly calls.
- Async questions/review of plans (architecture sketches, runbooks, tooling choices).
- Help prioritizing what to fix next in your infra and processes.
When it helps
- You have capable engineers but lack a senior DevOps/SRE to validate decisions.
- You want to grow internal ownership instead of outsourcing everything.
Ready to improve your infrastructure? #
If one of these fits your situation (or you’re not sure which one does), let’s figure out the right starting point:
- Send a short note describing your product, team size, and current stack at: hello@ohmyops.dev
- Tell me what you want to improve in the next 1–3 months (e.g., faster deploys, fewer incidents, a smaller cloud bill).
- Include links to anything that helps me prepare (architecture diagram, IaC repo, CI config, monitoring screenshots) — optional.
I’ll respond with a concrete recommendation for how to start (often a short call + a tight, time‑boxed scope).
