Why Sharper Cloud Exists

Companies keep hitting the same wall: they need senior infrastructure expertise but can’t justify a full-time hire, and agencies charge premium rates while sending junior engineers. Sharper Cloud exists to be the middle path — real expertise, directly, at a price that makes sense.

Justin Sharp, Founder & Principal Consultant

I’ve spent 20+ years building and operating cloud infrastructure at scale. I’ve been the on-call engineer at 3 AM. I’ve inherited the “legacy Kubernetes cluster” nobody wants to touch. I’ve migrated production databases with zero downtime. Now I bring that experience directly to your team.

Where I’ve Been

Head of Infrastructure at Divvy (acquired by Bill.com for $11B) Built the infrastructure and DevOps teams from scratch. Achieved PCI DSS and SOC2 compliance. Managed the technical foundation through hypergrowth and one of fintech’s largest acquisitions.

Sr. Manager, SRE at Weave (NYSE: WEAV) Led the migration from physical datacenter to GCP. Implemented cost tracking and optimization. Prepared infrastructure for IPO.

DevOps Architect at Ignisware Helped multiple clients optimize AWS infrastructure, achieve compliance certifications, and modernize deployment pipelines.

What I Bring to Your Team

  • AWS cost reduction — Consistently cut cloud bills within months through architectural improvements, not arbitrary cuts
  • Kubernetes expertise — Production-grade clusters across EKS, GKE, k0s, and self-hosted environments
  • CI/CD acceleration — GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, ArgoCD — whatever gets you shipping faster and safer
  • Observability — Self-hosted Grafana, Prometheus, and Loki stacks that give you visibility without vendor lock-in
  • Automation — n8n workflows and API integrations that replace expensive SaaS tools
  • Compliance — PCI DSS and SOC2 experience from leading teams through audit

The Sharper Cloud Difference

You work with me directly — No account executives, no bait-and-switch with junior engineers. Every hour you pay for is an hour of senior expertise.

Results you can measure — Cost reduction percentages, deployment frequency, uptime metrics. We track real outcomes, not activity.

Knowledge transfer built in — I build infrastructure your team can maintain after the engagement ends. Documentation and training are part of every project.

Practical over theoretical — I recommend solutions I’ve actually built and operated in production. No ivory tower architecture.
