Staff augmentation and fractional engineering for startups. AWS architects, DevOps engineers, and GenAI specialists embedded in your team — on your Slack, in your sprints, billed hourly.
We provide experienced developers from our internal network. They join your Slack, your standups, your sprint board — and you pay a simple hourly rate.
💡 Cost comparison
A senior AWS engineer in the US or Europe costs $150–200k/yr full-time. The same calibre of engineer through Albatronix costs $60–150/hr, billed only for hours worked.

AWS & Cloud Engineering
Infrastructure design, cloud migration, multi-region architecture, cost optimisation. AWS-certified engineers who’ve built for scale — not just configured consoles.
CI/CD pipelines, Kubernetes, Terraform, monitoring, incident response. Engineers who embed in your sprint and own delivery — not just write Ansible playbooks.
System design, technology roadmaps, vendor evaluation, scaling strategy. Senior-level advisory from an architect with international enterprise experience.
LLM integration, RAG pipelines, AI product strategy, prompt engineering. Engineers who’ve shipped GenAI to production — not just run Jupyter notebooks.
A structured audit of your AWS workloads against the 6 pillars: security, reliability, performance, cost, sustainability, and operational excellence. Deliverable in 2 weeks.
Where are you on the cloud journey? We audit your setup, score it across 5 dimensions, and give you a prioritised roadmap. Typically surfaces 3–5 quick wins.
Our lead architect is Europe-based with experience delivering cloud infrastructure for international organisations and enterprise clients across Europe. That’s the bar we vet every specialist against.
You’re not getting someone who passed an AWS exam last month. You’re getting engineers vetted by someone who’s built for clients that can’t afford outages.

Markets served — Europe, US, India. One team, one standard.
Who this is for
Three markets, one team.
We work with teams at different stages, across different geographies. Here’s who gets the most value.

North America
US & Canadian startups scaling infrastructure
You’ve shipped the product. Now your AWS bill is growing faster than your revenue, your deployments take too long, and you need a senior cloud engineer but can’t afford $180k/yr in San Francisco.

Europe
European scale-ups with cloud complexity
You’re GDPR-conscious, you have multi-region infrastructure, and you need someone who understands European compliance standards — not just someone who knows AWS from the US market.
You’re building fast, hiring engineers locally, but senior cloud and DevOps talent is scarce or expensive. You need someone who understands the India market — and can plug in without a lengthy onboarding.

How you can engage
Hourly embed or fixed-scope. Your call.
Not every problem needs a full-time embedded engineer. Some need a structured audit. We offer both.

Fractional Engineer
A dedicated AWS, DevOps, or GenAI engineer embedded in your team. In your Slack, your standups, your sprint — billing only for hours worked.
Albatronix places fractional AWS architects, DevOps engineers, Solution Architects, and GenAI specialists. We focus on cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, platform engineering, and AI integration — not full-stack generalists.
Upwork gives you individuals — you manage vetting, contracts, and risk. Albatronix finds, vets, employs, and manages the engineer. You get embedded talent without the overhead of sourcing.
Fractional engineers are billed at $60–$150/hr depending on seniority and specialisation. WAR and Cloud Maturity Assessments are fixed-price engagements.
Our lead architect — a senior engineer with UN and global enterprise experience — personally reviews every candidate before they're offered to a client.
Most placements are ready within 48 hours of an intro call. Your engineer will be on your Slack and shipping within 72 hours.
The AWS Well-Architected Review (WAR) assesses your existing AWS infrastructure against best practices and surfaces security, cost, and reliability risks. The Cloud Maturity Assessment is broader — it evaluates your team's processes, tooling, and architecture readiness for scale, regardless of cloud provider.
