Engineering inside the regulated platforms behind modern finance.
We embed senior engineers inside fintech ISVs serving advisors, broker-dealers and institutional investors. SOC 2-ready architecture, audit-trail-by-default, GDPR / GLBA-aware — built and shipped inside your security perimeter, not over the top of it.
Who we tend to be a good fit for in regulated finance.
Most of our fintech work has been with B2B platforms serving sophisticated investors and the institutions around them — not consumer fintech. The constraints are different, the audits are different, and engineering inside that perimeter is what we do.
Fintech ISVs serving advisors, broker-dealers and institutional investors.
You're building the platform layer between sophisticated investors and the products they buy — alternatives, structured offerings, advisory tools. Engineering teams that can hold up under SOC 2 audits, can read the regulatory subtext, and can ship inside the security perimeter you already have.
TYPICAL: 2+ YEAR ENGAGEMENTS · SOC 2 · INFOSEC REVIEWTwo product shapes we keep coming back to.
Custom platforms for regulated audiences — and the boring integration plumbing that sits between them and the rest of the financial-services stack.
Custom platforms for regulated audiences.
Investor portals, advisor workstations, KYC/onboarding flows, document workflows, audit-trail-by-default. Built to cleanly survive an institutional infosec review — and the next one after that.
EXAMPLES: Investor portals · KYC · Document flowsIntegrations with the financial-services stack.
Connectors into the systems regulated finance already runs — DocuSign-class signature flows, custodian APIs, market-data providers, compliance and surveillance tools. The boring middleware between your product and the rest of the stack.
EXAMPLES: Custodian · Market data · Signing · ComplianceSOC 2, PCI, GDPR — the starting line, not an afterthought.
We work with regulated data classes from day one. We don't issue certifications, but our engineering process was built to survive an institutional audit — and to integrate cleanly with the compliance programme your CISO already runs.
Type II-ready engineering.
Access reviews, change management, monitoring, incident response built into how the team works — not retrofitted before the audit. Your auditor's checklist runs short on the engineering line items.
Cardholder and account data, scope-tiny.
Tokenisation-first. Card and account data stay out of the application infra wherever the integration allows. PCI scope is the smallest it can be; the rest is encrypted-by-default.
Customer data, the regulated way.
EU customer-data residency where required, GLBA-aware handling for US financial information, DPAs and DSR flows that don't take a two-week back-office scramble.
Every meaningful action, logged.
Time-series audit trails baked into the data model from day one. Append-only where it matters. A regulator or a forensic engineer can reconstruct a transaction or a permission change without forensic effort.
We don't issue certifications and we're not auditors. We build product that fits inside a compliance programme run by you or your QA / regulatory partner. Show us the auditor's checklist and we'll work backwards from it.

SidekiqBackground jobsHow a fintech engagement runs — compliance-first, every step.
The four steps below are consistent across every fintech engagement we run — from KYC flows on a B2B advisor platform to integration plumbing into a regulated custodian.
Discovery & regulatory map.
We sit with the product, compliance and infosec owners on your side. Map the regulated data classes in scope, the integration surface, the auditor's checklist if there's one. No build until this is on paper and signed off.
WEEK 1–2Design with compliance, not at it.
UX and architecture proposed alongside discovery. KYC and audit-trail considerations are part of the design, not a separate review.
WEEK 2–6Build inside your security perimeter.
Code, infrastructure, deployments — all running inside the security and compliance setup you already have, or one we'll design with your team. Sensitive data never leaves the perimeter.
WEEK 6–[X]Ship to production, then keep going.
Phased rollout, regression suite the in-house QA can run, monitoring tuned to the metrics your CISO cares about. Long engagement is the default in fintech — we operate that way.
ONGOINGBuilding or scaling a regulated finance platform?
Tell us where the audit is dragging, where the integration is brittle, where the security review keeps coming back. Thirty minutes is usually enough for both sides to know whether this is a good fit.
