Infrastructure — 04

The data foundation
behind every decision.

We build the pipelines, lakehouses, and real-time systems that turn raw data into decision-ready insight — powering analytics, reporting, and machine learning.

Why it matters

Decisions are only as good as the data behind them.

01

Data lives in silos

Product events, CRM records, support tickets, payments — scattered across systems that don't talk to each other, with no single source of truth.

02

Reports are always stale

Manual exports and weekly spreadsheet refreshes mean decisions get made on data that's already a week out of date.

03

Nobody trusts the numbers

Without lineage and quality checks, every dashboard becomes a debate about whose numbers are right instead of what to do next.

What we provide

A data foundation every team can trust

Pipelines & orchestration

Reliable pipelines that don't wake you up at 3am

We build ingestion and transformation pipelines with Airflow or Prefect — scheduled, monitored, and self-healing where it matters most.

  • Batch and streaming ingestion from any source

  • DAG orchestration with retries and alerting (Airflow, Prefect)

  • dbt-based transformation and modelling layers

extract_orders → transform → load ✓ 08:00
sync_crm_contacts ✓ 08:15
aggregate_daily_revenue running…
SELECT region, SUM(revenue)
FROM lakehouse.fact_orders
WHERE order_date >= '2026-07-01'
GROUP BY region;
✓ Scanned 84M rows in 1.2s

Lakehouse architecture

One warehouse, every team querying the same truth

We design lakehouse architecture on Databricks, BigQuery, or Snowflake — structured so analysts, data scientists, and product teams all work from the same governed tables.

  • Lakehouse design on Databricks, BigQuery, or Snowflake

  • Star-schema and dimensional data modelling

  • Access controls and governance across teams

Real-time streaming

See what's happening as it happens

For fraud detection, live dashboards, or instant personalisation, batch isn't fast enough. We build event streaming with Kafka or Kinesis for sub-second visibility.

  • Event streaming with Kafka or Kinesis

  • Real-time aggregation and anomaly detection

  • Live dashboards backed by streaming data

Events per second Live
fact_orders100% valid
dim_customers99.8% valid
events_raw2 anomalies flagged

Quality & governance

Know exactly where every number comes from

We build automated data quality checks and lineage tracking, so when a number looks wrong, you can trace it to the source in minutes, not days.

  • Automated schema and data quality tests

  • End-to-end lineage tracking (dbt, OpenLineage)

  • BI dashboards on Metabase or Looker
