CONSULTANCY SERVICES

Cloud, security and data infrastructure at enterprise scale.

Cipherer works alongside CTOs, CIOs and CISOs to turn board-level priorities like growth, compliance, cost and risk into the secure cloud and data platforms that deliver them. Fifteen years translating business strategy into infrastructure that does not fail.

Trusted by

Built into the platforms that matter.

Scale

Built for the platforms that can't go down.

Capabilities

Four disciplines, one delivery model.

Built in code, deployed in code

Infrastructure as code. Security as code. Compliance as code.

Every environment we ship is reproducible from a git history. Terraform, GitOps, policy-as-code and continuous compliance baked into the pipeline from day one.

Selected work

Three projects, three impossible briefs.

01
TrustWallet (Binance) Web3 / Wallets

220M+ users. One of the world's largest crypto wallets. Every transaction needs to be observable in seconds, not days.

Designed and built a production-grade data lakehouse on Databricks and Delta Lake, unifying on-chain transactions, user analytics and behavioural signals.

Real-time fraud detection and ML-driven product intelligence at wallet scale.

02
NHS Digital Healthcare / Public Sector

Mid-pandemic. Records covering ~69M patients across England on legacy on-prem. The platform feeding national vaccine research and COVID response could not go down.

Led the migration of the NHS Secondary Uses Service to AWS with zero-downtime data patterns, coordinating multiple suppliers under high political and public visibility.

National healthcare data flowing securely to clinicians and researchers throughout the COVID response.

03
Sainsbury's Bank (via Accenture) Financial Services

A regulated bank's data estate, freshly migrated to AWS, but spread across teams and partner sources. Marketing analysts, risk modellers and forecasters were each re-deriving the same ground from scratch.

Built a production-grade serverless data platform on AWS for Sainsbury's Bank Datalabs, integrating cross-sector datasets behind one governed surface and shipping ML/AI pipelines as versioned, audited products.

A single trusted substrate behind marketing intelligence, fraud and risk modelling, and operational forecasting inside a regulated bank.

CERN & GAIA, via STFC Scientific Computing

Particle physics at the Large Hadron Collider, ~1 PB/day to permanent storage and ~90 PB/year to a ~1 EB tape archive after triggers throw away ~99.99% in real time. The GAIA spacecraft mapping a billion stars. The science only works if the data does.

Designed and operated the data processing and storage infrastructure at the Royal Observatory Edinburgh: 20+ mission-critical servers, secure networks, and capacity planning across long mission lifecycles.

Reliable data pipelines feeding two of the most demanding scientific programmes in the world.
