Cloud, software, and data engineering for healthcare, defense, and AI teams under audit
Seven focused practices across the whole stack: the infrastructure, the pipelines that move regulated data, and the Python running on top of them. Each one is the same senior engineer writing the Terraform, the code, the control narratives, and the runbook. Senior engineers only, all US citizens. No boilerplate decks. Pick the engagement that matches what you are about to ship, or talk to us first if you are not sure which is the right fit.
HIPAA cloud architecture, built around the PHI boundary
HIPAA-aligned cloud architecture for hospital systems, clinical SaaS, PBMs, and biotech. PHI boundary, encryption, identity, logging, and infrastructure-as-code on AWS, GCP, Azure, or OCI. Designed so the BAA and audit are the easy part.
Explore the engagement →FedRAMP consulting, built to pass the boundary review
FedRAMP Moderate and High cloud architecture for federal contractors and AI/SaaS vendors selling into agencies. AWS GovCloud, GCP Assured Workloads, Azure Government. NIST 800-53 controls codified in Terraform with narratives that match the boundary diagram.
Explore the engagement →HIPAA-Compliant CI/CD pipelines, built to ship and prove it
HIPAA-compliant CI/CD for healthcare engineering teams. Parent/child pipeline architecture, continuous evidence collection, signed artifacts, and policy gates that pass audits without slowing developers down. Built on GitHub Actions, GitLab, or your existing stack.
Explore the engagement →Production Kubernetes, built for regulated workloads
Production Kubernetes for regulated workloads. Namespace isolation, network policy, signed-artifact admission, zero-downtime migrations on EKS, GKE, AKS, or OKE. Platforms an engineering team can actually own without paging a vendor every Sunday.
Explore the engagement →AI infrastructure, built for regulated workloads
AI infrastructure and MLOps for AI/SaaS and healthcare AI teams. Training, serving, RAG, GPU clusters, and model/data provenance. Built for HIPAA, FedRAMP, and SOC 2 from day one, not retrofitted later when the customer security review lands.
Explore the engagement →Data pipelines, with the audit trail intact
Ingestion, tested transformations, warehouse and lakehouse architecture, and column-level lineage for teams whose data falls under HIPAA, HITRUST, or SOC 2. The layer beneath every analytics and AI initiative, built so you can answer where a regulated identifier went and who could read it.
Explore the engagement →Production Python, written against the control
Services, APIs, internal tooling, and automation for teams operating under HIPAA, FedRAMP, and SOC 2. Written by the same team that designs the infrastructure, so identity, logging, secrets, and data flow are built against the controls rather than discovered to conflict with them.
Explore the engagement →Predictable scope. Founder-led delivery.
Every Stonebridge engagement runs the same way regardless of which practice you book. Discovery call, written proposal, fixed-fee contract, delivery. No surprise invoices. Senior engineers only. No scope creep.
30-minute call
We map your situation to the right engagement profile. If we are not the right fit, we say so and point you elsewhere.
Written within 48 hours
Fixed scope, fixed fee, fixed timeline. Specific deliverables. Specific assumptions. Nothing left ambiguous.
Accountable from scope to handoff
The person writing the Terraform is the person you met on the discovery call. Weekly check-ins. Async daily updates.
Runbooks + walkthrough
Everything documented. Loom walkthroughs of the build. Your team owns it after handoff, not us.

Lucas Jones, founder
Six years building cloud infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines in regulated environments. HIPAA, FedRAMP, and SOC 2 engagement work for healthcare and defense engineering teams across AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI. The senior engineer who scopes your engagement leads it and stays accountable through handoff. Senior engineers only, all US citizens. No offshore delivery.
The same patterns documented in Field Notes are what get applied during real client engagements.

Not sure which engagement fits? Let's talk.
Most discovery calls take 30 minutes. We come back with a written proposal within 48 hours. If we are not the right fit for the engagement, we will tell you in the first call and point you somewhere that is.
