Niche software Target a small to mid-size software development team at a research-focused observatory. Their size (11-50 employees) suggests a need for scalable internal tools, collaboration platforms, and automation to improve efficiency without large enterprise complexity.
Technical stack Leverage their use of modern devops and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes, CircleCI, Jenkins, Ansible) to propose integrated CI/CD pipelines, cloud-native deployments, and automated testing that align with their existing workflows.
Data & db leverage With PostgreSQL in their stack, offer database optimization, backup/recovery solutions, monitoring, and performance tuning services to support mission-critical software components and potential data-heavy applications.
Growth signals Revenue range indicates a growing SMB with expansion potential; position value-add services such as security hardening, observability tooling, and scalable infrastructure to support anticipated growth.
Strategic partnerships Explore collaborations around scientific software integrations, visualization, and cloud-based compute for research workflows; align offerings with their observatory focus and potential public outreach or educational content initiatives.
