Who we are
PolyCloud Technologies is a cloud and DevOps focused startup founded by Nick Augustine and Josh Wells. We met in 2016, grew up in infrastructure and cloud engineering, and now help teams navigate everything from on-prem modernization to cloud-native delivery.
We are hands-on builders who have delivered platforms for startups and enterprise environments alike. Today, we lead Kubernetes platform efforts in enterprise AI and data environments, with deep focus on cloud architecture, automation, and application delivery. We collaborate closely to design scalable, secure, and cost-effective systems that teams can operate with confidence.
When the work extends beyond infrastructure, we build custom APIs, controllers, operators, and automations to connect systems, integrate data workflows, and eliminate manual steps.
What we do
Modern platform engineering, automation, and delivery work that helps teams ship faster and operate reliably.
Core capabilities
Platform Automation
API-first self-service platforms for cloud resources, policy, and access, built for any stack.
Cloud & Platform Engineering
Design and operate multi-cloud and hybrid platforms, including AWS, Azure, GCP, OpenStack, and all flavors of Kubernetes.
CI/CD & App Delivery
Modern delivery pipelines and GitOps workflows, including GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, ArgoCD, and Flux.
Security & Compliance Enablement
Shift-left security, policy-as-code, and hardened patterns that align with enterprise governance and risk.
Observability & Reliability
Monitoring, logging, and SRE practices, including Grafana, Prometheus, and OpenTelemetry.
Platform-first, outcome-focused
We blend hands-on engineering with consultative clarity. The result: faster delivery without sacrificing reliability, security, or developer experience.
Platform-first execution
We build paved roads and golden paths so teams can self-serve safely and ship faster.
Enterprise-grade automation
API-driven workflows and IaC modules that standardize delivery across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Measured, reliable outcomes
Observability, uptime, and operational readiness baked into every engagement.
