Partner

AWS Partner

Shakewell is an Amazon Web Services partner. We design, build, and operate production workloads on AWS for clients across Australia — the same platforms our own products run on.

Platform architecture

Green-field builds and re-platforms on AWS: load-balanced EC2, serverless (Lambda + API Gateway), containerised workloads, and static-plus-functions architectures picked to fit the workload, not the fashion.

Web application hosting

Production Laravel, WordPress, and Next.js platforms with zero-downtime deploys, environment parity from dev to prod, and monitoring that catches problems before your users do.

Email & messaging at scale

Transactional email through Amazon SES with proper domain authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), plus queues and scheduled jobs on SQS and EventBridge.

Cost & reliability engineering

Right-sizing instances, swap and memory tuning, backup and disaster-recovery runbooks, and infrastructure documented so your team is never hostage to ours.

Proof, not promises

Platforms we've shipped on AWS include streaming and e-commerce products, university-scale web applications, and enterprise content systems.See the case studies.

Engagement models

How we work

Four straightforward ways to engage us. Pick the one that fits, or mix them as your needs change.

Staff Augmentation

Add experienced Shakewell developers, designers or specialists directly to your own team. Engagements typically run three to twelve months, but can be as short or long as you need — you get the skills without the commitment and cost of hiring full-time.

About staff augmentation

Fixed-Scope Projects

Have a defined outcome in mind? We scope it, price it and deliver it as a project — a clear timeline, agreed milestones and a single point of accountability from kickoff to handover.

Embedded Delivery Teams

For larger or longer-running work, a cross-functional Shakewell team — development, design and delivery management — plugs in as your delivery arm, working to your priorities and your reporting cadence.

Support & Maintenance

Already live? We keep websites, stores and apps secure, updated and performing through ongoing retainers — business-hours support as standard, with 24/7 coverage available for critical issues.
