Migration Readiness Assessment
Scope: Fixed-scope discovery: inventory workloads, map dependencies, identify risks, and recommend a phased path before anyone commits to a cutover date.
Helping product and IT teams build, scale, and optimize on AWS.
Senior AWS engineering without building a large internal platform group. Work directly with AWS Certified engineers, with clear scope before billable work begins.
You may need an AWS partner when…
- Your AWS bill keeps growing, but nobody can clearly explain why.
- A security review uncovered IAM, logging, encryption, or account-structure gaps.
- Your team wants to migrate, but downtime risk and application dependencies are holding the project back.
- Engineers are spending more time maintaining infrastructure than shipping product.
- Leadership wants generative AI, but security, cost, and governance questions remain unresolved.
When these situations sound familiar, an experienced engineer can help identify what is driving the problem, recommend a practical path, and help implement it.
Example engagements

AWS operations review
Scope: Map monitoring, patching, backups, cost drivers, and ownership gaps — then recommend a clear operating model for what Alchemy owns versus what your team keeps.
AWS Security Baseline Review
Scope: Prioritized review of identity, logging, networking, encryption, backups, and account governance — with a remediation sequence your team can fund in waves.
