AWS architecture, data platforms, and production AI — delivered by a senior-independent practice with 16 years of hands-on experience in financial services, telecoms, and energy.
"You always get the principal. Not a sales deck followed by someone more junior. The work is the work."
We don't cover everything. We cover the parts of cloud, data, and AI where regulated organisations tend to get stuck — and where getting it wrong is expensive.
AWS multi-account design, Landing Zone, Control Tower, Service Control Policies, IAM governance, and VPC sizing. Built to meet audit requirements, not just to function.
Medallion architecture — Bronze, Silver, Gold — on AWS Glue, Step Functions, and Athena. Real-time Kinesis streaming. Data that's trustworthy before it's queryable.
Production AI on Amazon Bedrock — RAG pipelines, natural language querying, voice agents, and AI maturity roadmaps. We build things that stay in production, not demos.
Amazon Connect architecture and Contact Lens integration. Lambda-driven agent flows and AI-augmented quality assurance for regulated customer operations.
Modern web products built on clean code — landing pages, booking flows, serverless full-stack applications. Deployed on AWS or Netlify, with all the integrations your business needs.
AWS Well-Architected Framework reviews, technical due diligence, cost optimisation, and senior advisory for engineering leadership and boards who need an honest second opinion.
We don't do scope creep or discovery phases that run for months. We assess quickly, agree a clear scope, build to production standard, and hand over properly.
We map your current architecture and constraints. Identify what's worth fixing first. No obligation, no padding.
Trade-off-led decisions documented in ADRs. We think about long-term maintainability, not just what ships fastest.
Production-ready IaC, CI/CD pipelines, deployable artefacts. Not a slide deck. Not a handover to someone junior.
Runbooks, knowledge transfer, optional ongoing advisory. The aim is your team not needing us — not keeping us on retainer.
Regulated industries have constraints that generic cloud consultancies don't fully understand — audit requirements, legacy estates, governance sign-off chains, FCA obligations. We've worked inside these environments, not just read about them.
Led the Cloud CoE at a major UK insurer — setting architecture standards, governance frameworks, and delivery patterns across product teams.
Delivered a 300+ account AWS Control Tower migration using Account Factory — one of the largest Landing Zone programmes in the UK financial services market.
Designed and built Cloud AI Nexus — a Bedrock-powered analytics platform with NLQ on Gold-certified data, choropleth visualisation, and medallion architecture on AWS CDK.
Designed and deployed Nadia — a GDPR-compliant pharmacy voice assistant on Amazon Bedrock, Polly, Transcribe, and API Gateway. Live with a UK pharmacy client.
Conducted an Amazon QuickSight POC and led deployment of regulatory reporting dashboards across 300+ AWS accounts for a RegTech firm serving financial services clients.
Financial services, telecoms, energy, consulting — embedded in the team, to production standard, not advising from a distance.
Technical credentials
We build for ourselves the same way we build for clients — to production standard, owned entirely by you.
AWS-native medallion data platform with natural language querying on Gold-certified data only. No Databricks. No Snowflake. No Fivetran. Your data stays in your environment.
GDPR-compliant voice assistant for pharmacy and healthcare. Handles patient queries, prescription requests, and appointment booking around the clock — fully serverless, no infrastructure to manage.
Clean, fast websites for regulated-industry businesses — built properly, with the integrations your operations actually need. No agency markup, no handoff to a junior.
We don't have a standard retainer we try to sell everyone into. The shape of the engagement depends on what you actually need.
A defined scope, a defined outcome. Architecture designs, platform builds, migrations, technical audits — agreed up front, delivered to spec.
Senior architecture capacity without the full-time cost. Embedded in your team's rhythm — reviews, decisions, mentoring, board-level input.
Day-rate contracting for organisations that need senior architecture and delivery capacity sitting inside the team — not advising from outside it.

Kandi On Digital is a specialist consultancy. Every engagement is led by a principal architect with 16+ years of enterprise delivery experience — which means you're not sold to by one person and handed to another. For larger programmes, we bring in trusted specialists from our network where needed.
It depends on what you need. Discovery and advisory work is usually 2–4 weeks. Platform builds and migrations run 3–6 months. Fractional arrangements are ongoing. We'll scope it properly before anything is signed — no vague statements of work.
Often that's the best situation. We work alongside internal teams as the senior architecture layer — the person who makes the hard calls, reviews the designs, and brings patterns your team may not have had to build before. The goal is your engineers being stronger after we leave, not dependent on us staying.
Our primary depth is AWS — multi-account governance, Bedrock, CDK, the full ecosystem. We can advise on multi-cloud strategy and have working knowledge of Azure and GCP, but if you're primarily AWS, that's where we'll add the most value.
Mutual NDA as standard. We're comfortable with DPA agreements, information security questionnaires, and baseline clearance requirements. We've worked inside FCA, PRA, and GDPR-regulated environments — confidentiality is not a box-tick for us.
