What We Do

Full-stack capability.
Zero hand-holding required.

We handle the full development lifecycle, from architecture decisions to CI/CD pipelines to launch-day support.

Custom Software Development

Web apps, internal tools, SaaS products, and everything in between. Built with the right stack for your use case, not ours.

Cloud & Infrastructure

AWS, GCP, and Azure architecture design, migration, Kubernetes clusters, IaC with Terraform, and ongoing operational support.

API & Systems Integration

REST, GraphQL, gRPC. We connect your internal systems, third-party services, and data pipelines into a coherent architecture.

Technical Advisory

Fractional CTO services, architecture reviews, team scaling guidance, and due-diligence assessments for technical M&A.

Security & Compliance Engineering

SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS readiness. Threat modeling, pen-test remediation, and secure SDLC implementation baked in from day one.

Performance Engineering

Profiling, query optimization, caching strategies, and load testing. For when you've outgrown the prototype and need scale.

How We Work

Structured delivery. No surprises.

We've refined a process that keeps you informed without pulling you into the weeds.

01

Discovery

We dig into your goals, constraints, and existing systems before a single line is written.

02

Architecture

Design docs, ADRs, and a stack decision you'll still be happy with in three years.

03

Build

Two-week sprints, weekly demos, async Slack updates. Visibility without micromanagement.

04

Launch

Production deployment, runbooks, on-call handoff, and 30 days of hypercare support.

Founded
Austin, TX, est. 2017

Built in Austin. Wired for the long haul.

Skyhawk Software started with two engineers who were tired of watching good ideas fail due to poor technical execution. We set out to be the firm we always wished existed: direct communicators, strong opinions loosely held, and allergic to scope creep.

Today we're a team of 12 senior engineers operating as a tight contracting unit. We embed with your team, learn your domain, and build software that outlasts our engagement.

We are not an offshore staffing agency. We are not a buzzword factory. We are engineers who ship.

Clients

What people are saying.

We let the work speak, but sometimes clients get there first.

★★★★★

"Skyhawk came in when our backend was on fire three months before launch. They triaged, refactored the core payment flow, and handed us a system that's processed $40M without a hiccup."

CTO, Fern Commerce
★★★★★

"We'd burned two agencies before we found these guys. The difference is night and day. They push back when something's a bad idea, and they're always right. That's what you want in a technical partner."

MR
Marcus Reed
Founder, Pillar Health
★★★★★

"Our data pipeline migration to GCP was the most complex infrastructure project we'd ever undertaken. Skyhawk architected it, ran it, and handed us docs that our internal team could actually maintain."
