How we work

A predictable process, priced up front.

The same four stages on every engagement, whether it’s a two-week audit or a year-long platform build.

01

Scope

We start with a call and a short written brief. You get a fixed scope, a timeline, and a price before a line of code is written.

02

Build

Work ships in weekly increments to a staging URL you can open any time. No black boxes, no six-week silences before a big reveal.

03

Ship

We deploy to production, wire up monitoring, and hand over docs and access. The repository is yours from the first commit.

04

Run

Keep us on for maintenance and on-call, or take it in-house. Either way we leave it in a state another engineer can own.

Instant start

One call. A written plan. A fixed first milestone.

We build on AWS GCP Cloudflare, orchestrate with Kubernetes, and still love Bare Metal — fixed milestones, zero surprises.

Selected work

Systems in production, not slides.

Meridian Freight · Logistics

Replaced a nine-year-old dispatch system with zero downtime.

A phased cutover kept trucks moving while we swapped the engine underneath.

What comes standard

Production essentials, included on every build.

Dashboards from day one. Metrics, logs, and traces wired to alerts your on-call actually trusts.

Every merge ships itself. Tests, build, and deploy run on one pipeline you can read end to end.

In their words

Soraka gave us a plan we could actually follow, then built it in the open. We saw progress every week and there were no surprises at the end.
Priya Nathan/VP Engineering, Meridian Freight
They treated our legacy system with respect instead of proposing to burn it down. The migration was boring, which is exactly what we wanted.
Daniel Okonkwo/CTO, Northwind Retail

Questions

The things clients ask before we start.

Still unsure about something? Email us and a real engineer will answer.

It depends on scope, but we quote a fixed price before we start so there are no open meters. Small audits and prototypes run in the low five figures; a full platform build is larger. We tell you which bracket you are in on the first call.
