What the practice does
Lirado Tech helps CTOs of AWS-heavy SaaS and digital platforms identify and remove platform bottlenecks before reliability, scalability, cloud costs, and engineering complexity slow growth.
The core work is assessment, diagnosis, prioritization, and executive guidance—not implementation labor. The practice helps leadership teams understand what to fix first and why, then supports focused execution when the evidence justifies it.
The review is supported by a structured method for separating evidence from assumptions, identifying dependencies, and comparing interventions without manufacturing certainty.
Experience base
- 19+ years across cloud platforms, data platforms, reliability, scalability, and engineering leadership.
- Led cloud, platform, DevOps, SecOps, DBA, and monitoring teams.
- Built and led a platform organization supporting 140+ engineers across 21–24 squads.
- Scaled processing capacity from ~1M to 10M documents/day.
- Reduced platform costs by up to 64%.
- Led event-driven AWS and data-platform modernization at production scale.
Operating principles
Assessment before implementation
The practice believes in understanding the problem before prescribing solutions. A good platform assessment saves months of misdirected engineering effort.
Business outcomes, not tool choices
Platform decisions are business trade-offs. The practice helps leadership teams see how architecture, reliability, cost, and maturity decisions connect to growth, risk, and execution.
Selective capacity
Lirado Tech works with a small number of high-trust clients. This preserves quality, focus, and the ability to give each engagement the senior attention it deserves.
Principal-operated
Every engagement receives direct senior involvement from problem framing through decision support and, when agreed, focused execution. There are no layers between the client and the person doing the work.
Delivery model
Lirado Tech is Brazil-based and operates remote-first. Engagements are conducted in English and Portuguese. Direct senior involvement means the same person frames the problem, reviews the evidence, leads the decision workshop, and—when agreed—supports execution.
Detailed professional background and delivery responsibility are shared directly during commercial discussions.
What the practice does not do
- Does not provide broad part-time executive ownership
- Does not sell generic maturity reports as the primary outcome
- Does not promise transformation deadlines before discovery
- Does not manufacture implementation revenue from the review
Focused execution
Focused Platform Intervention
When the decision is clear but the team needs hands-on leadership through a critical delivery, the practice leads one agreed milestone alongside the internal team. This is bounded execution for a specific platform change, not ongoing staff augmentation.
