The firm behind the systems
Most systems don't fail because of bad technology. They fail because nobody tends to them. We exist to change that.
Software is alive
It grows, breaks, adapts. Left alone, it decays. Tended well, it thrives. This is not a metaphor -- it's the reality every engineering team lives with.
A garden left untouched doesn't stay the same. It goes wild. Weeds take over. Soil compacts. The plants that mattered get crowded out. Systems work the same way. Dependencies rot. Configurations drift. Small neglects compound until the whole thing is fragile and nobody remembers why.
We're the ones who tend to it. Not with heroics or overnight rewrites, but with the steady attention that keeps a system healthy over years -- pruning what's overgrown, strengthening what's weak, planting what's needed next.
We don't list technologies to impress you. We describe what we do with clarity, and you see outcomes. That's the deal.
Who runs this
Paraxis was founded by Paras Singh. Before starting the firm, he spent years as an infrastructure engineer -- building deployment pipelines, migrating systems to the cloud, and getting paged at 3 AM when things broke. Fintech, healthcare, enterprise SaaS. The industries changed; the problems didn't.
The same pattern kept showing up: a team would build something impressive, ship it, and move on to the next feature. Six months later the infrastructure was a mystery. Dependencies were three versions behind. The deployment process lived in one person's head. And when something broke -- it always breaks -- nobody knew where to look.
Paraxis started because that pattern is preventable. Not with better tools or more engineers, but with a different kind of attention. The kind that treats infrastructure as something worth maintaining, not just something to set up and forget.
We build systems that are clear enough for your team to maintain, documented enough to hand over, and resilient enough to run while you focus on your product. That's the whole promise.
What we stand for
Clarity over cleverness
Clever infrastructure impresses the person who built it. Clear infrastructure serves the person who inherits it. We write code, configs, and documentation that a new hire can follow on their first day. If it needs a walkthrough to understand, it needs rewriting.
Precision in execution
Every configuration is deliberate. Every deployment is repeatable. We don't cut corners because we've seen where shortcuts lead -- 2 AM incident calls six months later, when nobody remembers the shortcut or why it was taken.
Quiet confidence
We let the work speak. No buzzwords, no hype cycles, no promises we can't keep. We'd rather under-promise and over-deliver than the reverse. If we say the system will hold, it holds.
Long-term thinking
We build for the system you'll need in a year, not just the one you need this week. Architectural decisions compound the same way financial ones do. A good choice now saves you ten decisions later. A bad one creates debt you'll pay interest on for years.
Where we work
Remote-first and global. We work across time zones with teams in Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific. Servers don't care where you sit, and neither do we. What matters is the work, the communication, and the outcomes.
Currently based between the UK and India. Available for engagements worldwide. We overlap with your team's hours and communicate asynchronously when it makes more sense.
Good work starts with a conversation
We're selective about the work we take on -- not because we're precious about it, but because we go deep on every engagement. If your project is a good fit, we'll both know quickly.
