Who we are

Commercial-grade operations for public sector work

Opty has spent years running production infrastructure for commercial companies: online marketplaces, payment products, energy data and blockchain networks. We are a small business, and we are now bringing that same team and the same practices to government agencies and the prime contractors that serve them, starting close to home in California and the Bay Area. Our team is 100% US-based.

We are new to government contracting and we say so plainly. What we are not new to is the work itself: keeping systems up, keeping them secure, helping clients pass audits and keeping the bill under control.

Capabilities

What we can do for your agency

The short version. Codes, company data and past performance are in our capability statement.

Full infrastructure operations

We operate entire environments following best practice, on public cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure), bare metal (OVH, Hetzner) or PaaS (Heroku, Vercel). We set up CI/CD, adopt infrastructure as code with Terraform and take your code to production.

Cost optimization

We know these services inside out. Picking the right one for each workload is how we bring the bill down without giving up reliability.

PostgreSQL at scale

We are database experts, with years of experience tuning petabyte-scale PostgreSQL on bare metal.

Compliance readiness

We have helped many companies pass their SOC 2 audit. We build controls that follow NIST frameworks and work with the client's auditor through the process.

Smart contract audits

We audit smart contracts for other companies and report findings with severity and remediation. See our audit reports.

Network and endpoint security

We optimize networks, roll out mobile device management (MDM) and build defense in depth, to help your organization adopt a strong security posture.

Observability

We secure and tune performance with real observability. Our stack of choice is VictoriaMetrics, which costs far less to run than the usual ELK or EFK set-up.

Data engineering

We help teams design data flows and build data pipelines. We have built pipelines that index energy and blockchain data, and we know the energy sector from working in it.

Blockchain validator operations

We operate validators for many blockchain networks, including Canton, with monitoring, upgrades and 24x7 on-call.

AI and machine learning

We build inference engines and we are big fans of local LLMs: models that run on hardware you control, so sensitive data never leaves your environment.

Why a small business

You talk to the engineers
who do the work

Senior people, no layers

The engineer who scopes your project is the one who builds and operates it. There is no account team in between and no junior bench.

Quick to start

Low overhead means we can scope a task, agree a price and begin in days. Our rates are published.

Careful with public money

Cost is an engineering goal for us. We choose platforms and tools for what they cost to run over years, not for what is fashionable.

Working with us

Three ways to engage

Buy from us directly

For smaller requirements, agencies can come to us directly through micro-purchases, simplified acquisitions and small business set-asides.

Team with us as a prime

Prime contractors bring us in as a small business subcontractor for infrastructure, database, observability and security engineering.

Start with an assessment

A fixed-scope review of your infrastructure, costs or security posture, with written findings you can act on with or without us.
