Both are excellent. Terraform shines for broad provider coverage and team familiarity; Pulumi when you want real languages and tighter app/infra co-location. We pick with your team, not our preference alone.

How do you handle state?

Remote backends with locking, least-privilege access, and clear workspace/stack boundaries. State is treated as sensitive production data.

Can you import existing resources?

Yes — carefully. We prioritize high-blast-radius resources first, validate plan output, and avoid big-bang imports that freeze delivery for weeks.

What about policy and guardrails?

OPA/Sentinel/Checkov-style checks in CI so non-compliant plans fail before apply — with exceptions that are explicit, not tribal.

Do you rewrite everything from scratch?

Rarely. We stabilize the golden path, modularize hotspots, and retire click-ops gradually so product delivery keeps moving.

OpenTofu vs Terraform — does it matter?

We support both. Provider coverage and team muscle memory matter more than logo loyalty. Migrations are planned around state compatibility and CI impact.

How do multi-account / multi-subscription layouts work?

Account/subscription boundaries map to stacks or root modules with shared modules above them — never copy-pasted roots per env.

Who approves production applies?

Risk-based. Low-blast modules can auto-apply on merge; high-risk paths keep human approval with readable plans and owners.

Declarative infrastructure

Environments you
can recreate on demand.

We turn cloud click-ops into reviewed, versioned modules — Terraform, Pulumi, and policy-as-code so every environment is intentional, auditable, and boring to rebuild.

Principles

Declarative infrastructure that stays maintainable

compose

Modules over monoliths

Composable building blocks with clear interfaces — not one 8,000-line root that nobody dares touch.

review

Plan is a product artifact

Readable plans in PRs, with reviewers who understand blast radius — not rubber-stamp merges.

envs

Environments as data

Same modules, different tfvars/stacks — staging mirrors prod shape without copy-paste drift.

policy

Policy before apply

Guardrails fail the pipeline early so production never becomes the first policy check.

Who it's for

Built for the people who own the blast radius

Platform teams

A module registry and paved apply path — product teams stop opening console tickets.

Security & compliance

Policy-as-code evidence, tagged resources, and drift alerts that auditors understand.

Product engineering

Request infra like a library — versioned modules, examples, and clear failure messages.

FinOps

Tag completeness and right-size defaults baked into modules, not spreadsheet hunts.

Module registry

Golden modules product teams actually consume

network/vpcv3.2.1

Hub-spoke ready VPCs with flow logs, NAT options, and tagged subnets.

compute/eks-clusterv2.8.0

Managed node groups + IRSA hooks, add-on pins, and private API options.

data/postgresv1.9.4

Encrypted instances, parameter groups, and backup windows as inputs.

identity/irsa-rolev1.4.0

Least-privilege roles with OIDC trust — no long-lived keys in pods.

edge/cdn-wafv1.2.3

Front-door patterns with TLS, caching defaults, and WAF rule packs.

observe/otel-collectorv0.7.1

Collector DaemonSet + gateway with sane resource defaults.

Outcomes

Estates we made reproducible

Region in hours

Click-ops VPC → Terraform modules

Imported networking and IAM into versioned modules; new regions stood up in hours instead of weeks.

Terraform · AWS

1 PR = app + infra

Pulumi for app-adjacent infra

TypeScript stacks living beside services — same PR for feature and its required cloud resources.

Pulumi · TypeScript

0 open SG to prod

Policy gate for regulated cloud

Denied public buckets and open security groups in CI before any apply reached prod.

Deliverables

What you leave with — not just a repo dump

State & backend design

Locked remote state, encryption, and break-glass runbooks.

Golden module set

Versioned VPC, compute, data, and IAM starters with examples.

CI plan/apply path

PR plans, policy gates, and protected production applies.

Drift detection

Scheduled compares with owners and exception workflow.

Import playbook

Prioritized resource import order with validation checks.

Team enablement

Module contribution guide and review checklist.

Anti-patterns

Patterns we help you retire

One giant root

8k-line main.tf that freezes the moment anyone needs a subnet.

State in git

Secrets and IDs in the repo — until the breach report arrives.

Env copy-paste

Three nearly identical roots that drift the week after launch.

Apply from laptops

No audit trail, no policy, and “works on my AWS profile.”

Industries

SaaS platforms

Multi-tenant baselines and per-customer stack options.

Fintech / regulated

Tagged evidence, private networking, and gated applies.

Healthcare

Segmentation patterns and least-privilege identity as code.

Marketplaces

Repeatable region expansion without reinventing VPC each time.

Why Zupitrix

IaC as engineering — not a migration side quest

Readable by humans

Code that on-call engineers can reason about under pressure — not clever abstractions for their own sake.

Safe change culture

We optimize for confident applies: small modules, clear plans, and rollback stories.

Platform leverage

Your next ten environments should cost a PR — not another consulting engagement.

Inventory

Map managed vs click-created resources and ownership.

State strategy

Backends, stack boundaries, and access model.

Modularize

Extract golden modules; import high-risk resources first.

Automate

CI plans, policy checks, and drift detection on a cadence.
