Axion Labs is a specialist engineering studio for operators who care about the machinery. We design, build and run platform, cloud and AI infrastructure for forty-three teams across fintech, health and industrial software — from pre-seed to the FTSE.

01 · Services
We deliberately do less than most agencies so that we can do it better. Every engagement is led by a senior engineer — never a project manager with a deck.
Multi-region Kubernetes, Terraform modules, progressive delivery and zero-trust networking — built so your team can ship without waking anyone up.
24/7 on-call, SLO design, observability stacks and blameless postmortems. We run production so you can build product.
RAG pipelines, vector stores, model gateways and evaluation harnesses. Production-grade LLM systems — not prototypes.
SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA readiness. Threat modelling, penetration testing and supply-chain hardening by engineers who ship, not auditors who check boxes.
Dedicated pods of senior engineers embedded into your product team. TypeScript, Go, Rust, Python — whatever the problem demands.
A senior technology partner for founders between seed and Series B. Architecture, hiring, technical diligence, vendor calls — all of it.
02 · Engagement
Four phases, transparently priced. We publish a fixed statement of work after week one — no scope creep, no time-and-materials theatre.
A one-week paid audit of the existing system, team and commercial context. You keep the report regardless.
Detailed RFC with architecture diagrams, build plan, risks and a fixed-fee statement of work signed before any code ships.
Two-week sprints with live demos, trunk-based development and paired sessions with your team. Weekly written updates.
Runbooks, training, and a 90-day operate-with-you period. We leave better than we found it — and leave when asked.
03 · Selected work
A curated slice — under NDA we can share more. Ask during the intro call.
Harbour & Finch
Fintech · Kubernetes · Rust · Postgres · 2025 — ongoing
Harbour & Finch migrated from a monolith to an event-sourced, multi-region platform over eleven months. We led architecture, platform build and the quiet cut-over with zero customer incidents.
Cortex Health
Healthtech · HIPAA-grade RAG
A compliance-aware LLM platform serving 3,400 clinicians across four NHS trusts.
Meridian
Industrial IoT · Edge · TimescaleDB
Edge pipelines across 1,200 turbines — 32% fewer unplanned outages in the first quarter.
04 · Stack
We default to boring, well-understood technology. When something new earns its place, we adopt — carefully, and only after production hours.
