Cloud Architecture
Designs that account for your team's actual operational capacity, not a reference diagram from a vendor.
BlueForge Technology Group
Cloud systems built to be maintained.
Seattle consultancy building AI-assisted business systems on cloud foundations your own team can operate — long after we've gone.
Start a ConversationAbout Us
A great deal of cloud architecture is designed for a team that doesn't exist — one with more people, more specialism and more time than the client actually has. It works during the engagement and degrades quietly afterwards.
BlueForge Technology Group designs for the team you have. Graham Sinclair founded the practice in Seattle after years of returning to systems that had been elegant on delivery and unmaintainable within a year.
We work with software companies, healthcare technology firms and logistics businesses across the Pacific Northwest. Every engagement ends with documentation and a handover session, because a system your team can't operate isn't finished.
Our Expertise
Six areas where we do our most useful work for Seattle businesses.
AI System Design
Practical machine-assisted workflows built where they measurably reduce effort, not where they demo well.
Platform Engineering
Deployment pipelines, observability and environments that make releases boring in the best sense.
Cost Optimisation
Cloud spend reduction through right-sizing and commitment strategy, typically without touching architecture.
Legacy Modernisation
Incremental extraction from monoliths, sequenced so the business keeps running throughout.
Technical Due Diligence
Independent code and infrastructure assessment for acquirers and investors, delivered in plain language.
Our Approach
- Design for the team you haveArchitecture is constrained by who maintains it at 2 AM.
- Boring is a featureProven components beat interesting ones in production.
- Cost is a design inputArchitectures that ignore run-rate get rebuilt within two years.
- Documentation ships with codeUndocumented systems become someone's unpleasant inheritance.
