DevOps rescue for a SaaS scale-up
Deploys that take days and break on Fridays. We'd rebuild CI/CD in a 4-week rescue: automated tests, staging, one-command rollbacks — rehearsed before launch.
AI operations engineering
Build it. Automate it. Run it.
A senior engineering team for AI automation, web platforms, and the cloud infrastructure beneath them — accountable from first design to daily operations.

How we hire
Production AI built by engineers who stay current — not by résumés.
The industry sells years of experience as quality. But the engineers shipping the best AI systems today aren't the most tenured — they're the most fluent: agents, evals, modern stacks. We hire for what engineers ship now.
- Fluent, not tenured.
Current-stack fluency is the hiring bar. Tenure no longer proxies competence — fluency with today's tooling does.
- Judgment included.
Fluency wins speed; judgment keeps systems alive at 3am. Every build ships with evals, monitoring, and a runbook.
- The team you meet is the team that ships.
No bait-and-switch, no handoffs. Named engineers on your kickoff call, vetted by a paid production-style review.

// Production stack
The stack we ship on.
Not slideware — the infrastructure, data, and automation tooling our engineers run in production every week.
LLM INFRASTRUCTURE
Hosted and self-hosted model serving, tuned for cost and latency.
RAG SYSTEMS
Retrieval pipelines over your docs, with eval harnesses that catch drift.
KUBERNETES
Production clusters with GitOps deploys and autoscaling that behaves.
AWS
Cloud architecture, hardened IAM, and spend kept under control.
TERRAFORM
Infrastructure as code, reviewed with the same rigor as app code.
VECTOR DATABASES
Embeddings at scale — tuned recall, sub-100ms search.
AGENT FRAMEWORKS
Multi-agent workflows with human-in-the-loop gates where it matters.
What we do
Four capabilities. One standard: production.
Every engagement starts the same way: a free audit that finds the highest-value work. Then engineers fluent in the current stack do it right.
- AI Automation & Content PipelinesThe busywork disappears. Approvals stay human; everything repetitive runs itself.
- DevOps & CloudShip daily without the 2 a.m. pages. Pipelines your team trusts.
- Web DevelopmentSites that load in a blink and turn visitors into pipeline.
- Managed Infrastructure & SecurityServers you never think about — patched, backed up, watched.
Free AI audit
We find the work you shouldn't be doing.
Seven days. We scan your workflows, measure the manual hours, and hand you a costed automation roadmap. Yours to keep — even if you never hire us.
- 01We interview your team and map the 14 highest-friction workflows.
- 02We measure the manual hours and price what automation returns.
- 03You get a ranked roadmap: biggest win first, fixed quote attached.
$ seiko audit --scope operations
✓ scanned 14 workflows across 3 teams
✓ flagged 9 automatable tasks (61% of manual hours)
! content publishing: 22 hrs/week on copy-paste
! deploy pipeline: 3 manual gates, 2 outages/quarter
→ estimated savings: $184,000 / year
→ full roadmap in 7 days. free.

Question 1 of 2
What eats most of your team's time?
How we work
Simple process. No black boxes.
Four steps from first call to handover. You see working software every week — never a status deck.
Audit
We map your three biggest automation wins in 7 days. The roadmap is free and yours to keep.
Fixed quote
Scope, price, and timeline in writing before we write a line of code. No change-order games.
Weekly sprints
Demo every Friday in your time zone. You approve direction while it's cheap to change.
Handover & support
Docs, training, and 30 days of support. Your team owns everything after we leave.
Engagement blueprints
What we'd build for you.
Engagement blueprints from our senior team's shipped work — how we'd run these engagements for you. The full playbook, phase by phase, is on the Work page.

AI content pipeline for a B2B marketing team
A five-person marketing team producing good content — but each asset takes weeks from brief to published, and the backlog of unwritten topics keeps growing. We'd build a pipeline grounded in their documents, with human approval on every publish decision.
≤ 48 hrssuccess criterion: brief to published
30 / mosuccess criterion: same team, same headcount

Managed infrastructure & security for a services firm
Client work running on infrastructure nobody owns. We'd harden everything and take ownership — patching, monitoring, tested backups, response times in writing.
Our own content engine
The one case study that's real: the supervised pipeline that runs this site's content. Live since September 2026 — a human approves everything, a named engineer keeps it honest.
We build intelligent motion
The standard
MIT’s 2025 GenAI research found ~95% of enterprise pilots show zero measurable P&L impact — most were built to demo, with no named owner after launch.
“Anyone can demo an AI workflow. We build the kind that survives production — evals before launch, a human approving every publish, and a named engineer on call.”
Senior delivery
Senior engineers. Proven methods.
You're not buying our learning curve. The engineers who scope your engagement are the ones who build it — senior people, named on your runbook, on call when it matters. Fixed pricing, production-grade methods, and a playbook we run the same way on our own systems — because we do.
Delivery model
Built for your time zone. Not against it.
We shift our working hours to yours. Standups happen in your morning, not your midnight — full overlap with your business day, wherever your team sits.
The usual outsourcing story
Farmed out
- Standups at midnight, your time
- Junior devs doing the work, seniors on the invoice
- Weeks of silence, then surprises
- Change orders for every small fix
The Seiko way
Embedded
- Working hours shifted to cover your business day, daily
- Engineers who stay current — the team you meet is the team that ships
- Demo every Friday; the board is always open
- Fixed quotes. No change-order games

Fit check
Honest about fit.
We will tell you on the first call if we are not the right team. Here is the short version, up front.
We are a fit when
- Repetitive work is eating hours you could spend on growth
- You want engineers, not account managers
- Someone on your side can answer questions weekly
- You would rather start small and prove it first
We are not a fit when
- You need the cheapest bid, not the best outcome
- You want a large team managed entirely for you
- No one on your side can own decisions week to week
- You need it live by Friday — we do not do rush miracles
FAQ
Asked often. Answered straight.
Automation guesses are expensive. We spend seven days measuring your actual workflows, then hand you a ranked, costed roadmap. You keep it either way — if the audit doesn't change how you see your workflows, we've done it wrong.
Engineers hired for current fluency. Every engineer passes live coding, system design, and a paid trial project before touching your systems. The people you meet on the first call are the people who do the work.
Our working hours are shifted to cover your workday. Standups land in your morning, questions get answered same-day, and Friday demos run live — never as a recording.
You get a fixed quote after the audit — no hourly meters running. Most pilots ship in 4–6 weeks, and we size them so the first win covers the pilot's cost.
