Reclaimer Systems helps engineering organizations modernize deployment infrastructure and build reliability practices that hold up under pressure. We specialize in Kubernetes-based platforms on AWS: greenfield GitOps buildouts, observability deployments, and SRE process design.
A focused set of platform and reliability services, each drawn from years of direct ownership across large-scale production environments.
We design and implement GitOps platforms from greenfield or modernize existing ones. Argo, Helm, Kustomize. Gated repo architectures, environment state management, automated validation, and developer self-service workflows, built to become the standard your teams actually use.
We deploy and standardize Prometheus, Grafana, and Elastic stacks across multi-team environments, and instrument application service flows to surface execution paths that had no coverage before. We also design the on-call, incident response, and postmortem processes that make the reliability investment stick.
We build and maintain Terraform module libraries with least-privilege patterns, automated testing, and CI/CD-driven deployments, designed for use across large, multi-team portfolios.
We build versioned, modular pipeline libraries covering the full delivery lifecycle: build, security scanning, drift detection, change management, and release notes. Implementations in GitHub Actions, Bash, Python, and Golang.
We manage EKS clusters, Istio service mesh, Kong ingress, and AWS Controller for Kubernetes across multi-cluster, multi-account environments. Migration engagements replace brittle legacy systems while keeping existing workloads running throughout.
We build prompt-driven workflows that analyze service flows to map critical paths and surface instrumentation gaps, and that automatically review code changes and deployments against historical incidents, common mistakes, and likely future pitfalls.
Direct experience across the full platform stack, not just familiarity with it.
Reclaimer Systems is an independent engineering consultancy focused on platform reliability and Kubernetes infrastructure. We work embedded with engineering organizations, not as advisors from a distance. We take direct ownership of the systems we build.
Most of our engagements serve organizations of 50–200+ engineers running Kubernetes-based microservice environments on AWS. Work spans greenfield buildouts, observability deployments, on-call process design, and IaC library development.
Good platform infrastructure should be auditable, maintainable, and actually used. Everything we deliver is built to keep working after the engagement ends.
