Azure infrastructure / for growing companies

I get growing companies onto
solid, cost-aware Azure infrastructure.

I'm Soroush. I work with startups and mid-size SaaS teams at three moments where Azure infrastructure tends to go sideways: setting up a real environment for the first time, migrating off on-prem, and reining in a cloud bill that grew faster than anyone was watching it.

How I help

Landing zones

First Azure environment, done right

For startups outgrowing "one subscription, no structure." Subscriptions, naming, RBAC, and guardrails set up before the mess accumulates, not after.

Cost optimization

Bring the Azure bill back under control

For SaaS teams whose spend crept up unnoticed. Reserved instances, right-sizing, and waste elimination — usually with savings visible in the first billing cycle.

Migration

Off on-prem, without the fire drill

For companies moving workloads off self-managed hardware. Staged migrations with rollback plans, not a risky weekend cutover.

This site

A portfolio and blog, served by Gunicorn and Nginx on a small Hetzner Cloud box — proof that "the right tool" doesn't always mean the obvious one.
