Shared capabilities
Shared capabilities, tailored to the team in front of us.
ReduceOps works with both startups and small businesses. The underlying work is similar, but the starting problems are different.
Fractional DevOps for product teams that keep getting dragged into infrastructure.
When founders and senior engineers are still the release process.
- ✓ A founder or lead engineer is still the person everyone pings when deploys wobble
- ✓ The team has enough customers to care about uptime, but not enough budget for a full-time DevOps hire
- ✓ Shipping product keeps losing hours to CI/CD cleanup, cloud sprawl, or brittle containers
DevOps help for small businesses that need better infrastructure without overbuilding.
When the business needs reliability, but the stack still depends on too many manual steps.
- ✓ Deployments still depend on whoever remembers the exact steps
- ✓ Infrastructure work keeps getting pushed back because customer work always wins
- ✓ You need safer releases and cleaner operations, but not an enterprise platform program
Deployment Pipelines
Make shipping boring again with cleaner CI/CD, safer release flows, and less key-person risk.
- ✓ GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, ArgoCD, or Flux setup and cleanup
- ✓ Release process hardening for rolling, canary, or blue-green deploys
- ✓ Build and test automation that developers can actually trust
Containers and Runtime
Containerize apps properly, reduce drift between environments, and tighten how services run in production.
- ✓ Dockerfiles and multi-stage builds that are smaller and easier to maintain
- ✓ Compose cleanup, registry setup, image scanning, and runtime conventions
- ✓ Migration support from ad-hoc hosts toward a more repeatable deployment model
Kubernetes and Platform Work
For teams that actually need Kubernetes, not teams being talked into it because it sounds advanced.
- ✓ Cluster setup, app migration, Helm charts, RBAC, and workload structure
- ✓ Monitoring, alerts, and operational guardrails around production workloads
- ✓ A calmer path to scaling when your current setup starts to wobble
Fractional DevOps Retainer
Ongoing senior DevOps support for teams too small for a full-time hire but too busy to keep winging it.
- ✓ Slack-based, async-first support across delivery, infra, and reliability
- ✓ Regular cleanup of operational drag before it turns into a larger outage or roadmap tax
- ✓ A senior operator who can review changes, spot risks, and keep momentum going
