About us

A small company with a long memory for the systems we build.

Synthiq exists for teams that want engineers who stay accountable after go-live, not just until the invoice clears.

Our story

Started by people who were tired of handovers.

Our founders spent years inside carriers, payment firms and product start-ups. They kept seeing the same pattern: a vendor ships version one, leaves, and the client inherits a system no one fully understands.

Synthiq was set up to break that pattern. We keep teams small and senior, write down how things work as we build them, and plan for the years of running a system, not just the weeks of launching it.

Today we support clients in retail, logistics, finance and telecom, from a single product squad to multi-team programmes that span apps, messaging and cloud.

Mission

Make critical software calm to own.

We measure success by how quiet your on-call rota is a year after launch, and by how easily your own team can extend what we built.

Ownership

We treat your uptime, budget and deadlines as our own numbers, and we say early when one of them is at risk.

Clarity

Decisions, trade-offs and architecture are written down where your team can find them, in plain language.

Craft

Tests, reviews and observability are part of the work, not extras to cut when the calendar gets tight.

Continuity

The people who design a system stay close to it, so knowledge does not walk out the door after launch.

How we work

Four steps from first call to steady state.

  1. Discover

    One or two workshops to map goals, constraints and the riskiest assumptions. You leave with a written scope and an honest estimate.

  2. Shape

    Architecture, delivery plan and a clickable prototype where it helps. We agree on what done means before code starts.

  3. Build

    Two-week cycles with a working release at the end of each one, plus a short written update every Friday.

  4. Run

    Monitoring, incident response and continuous improvement, or a structured handover to your in-house team.

Next step

Bring us the problem, not a finished spec.

A 30-minute call is usually enough to map the risks, the first milestone and the team you would need.
