Infrastructure, Cloud & Security
Infrastructure talent that scales with ambition, secures by design
Modern digital operations demand infrastructure that is both agile and ironclad. Adept helps build teams that engineer resilient foundations, implement cloud-native architectures, and embed security at every layer—transforming infrastructure from cost center to competitive advantage.
The Infrastructure Reality
Where rigid foundations constrain digital velocity
Traditional infrastructure often becomes a constraint rather than an enabler. Siloed teams, legacy systems, and security bolt-ons create friction that slows innovation and increases operational risk.
- Infrastructure teams struggle to keep pace with development velocity
- Cloud migrations stall due to skill gaps and architectural debt
- Security becomes an afterthought rather than a design principle
- Operations become reactive firefighting rather than proactive optimization
- Hybrid environments create management complexity and visibility gaps
Adept’s approach
How we think about infrastructure talent
We view infrastructure, cloud, and security as an integrated discipline rather than separate functions. Our approach builds teams that understand the interconnectivity between these domains, creating systems that are scalable, secure, and sustainable.
- Infrastructure as strategic capability, not just technical necessity
- Hiring aligned to architectural evolution and business scalability needs
- Integration of security, reliability, and performance as core design principles
- Focus on engineering excellence and operational maturity
Infrastructure Engineering
Building resilient, scalable foundations
Infrastructure teams must evolve from maintainers to engineers—designing systems that anticipate scale, automate operations, and ensure reliability. This requires a shift from manual administration to infrastructure as code and platform engineering.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and automation maturity
- Hybrid and multi-cloud architecture management
- Performance optimization and capacity planning
- High availability and disaster recovery design
Infrastructure Capability Focus Areas
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation)
- Virtualization and Container Orchestration (VMware, Kubernetes)
- Storage and Network Architecture
- Performance Engineering and Capacity Planning
Typical Infrastructure Talent Needs
- Infrastructure Architects and Platform Engineers
- Site Reliability Engineers (SRE) and DevOps Engineers
- Network Architects and Storage Specialists
- Infrastructure Automation Engineers and Cloud Operations Managers
Cloud, DevOps and Security
Engineering agility with embedded resilience
The convergence of cloud, DevOps, and security creates a new paradigm where speed and safety are not trade-offs. Teams must implement cloud-native architectures with security embedded in every layer and automation in every process.
- Cloud-native architecture design and implementation
- DevOps culture and toolchain maturity
- Security integration into CI/CD pipelines
- Cost optimization and cloud financial management
Cloud & DevOps Focus Areas
- Cloud Architecture (AWS, Azure, GCP specialization)
- DevOps Toolchains and CI/CD Pipeline Engineering
- Containerization and Microservices Architecture
- Cloud Security and DevSecOps Implementation
Typical Cloud & DevOps Talent Needs
- Cloud Architects and Solutions Engineers
- DevOps Engineers and Platform Reliability Specialists
- DevSecOps Engineers and Cloud Security Architects
- FinOps Practitioners and Cloud Cost Optimization Experts
