Jaraco GmbH

Software Engineering for complex products and platforms.

jaraco helps software companies design, build and operate reliable software and cloud platforms - from product engineering to Kubernetes and automation.

Platform Engineering for Software Companies

We help teams reduce cloud and Kubernetes complexity, improve delivery, and build operating models engineers can own.

Start with a focused Platform Assessment, a practical PoC, or hands-on engineering support.

Platform Engineering for Software Companies

When cloud and Kubernetes infrastructure starts slowing down your product team, we help you simplify the platform, improve delivery and build an operating model your engineers can own.

Explore Platform Engineering

Infrastructure shouldn't slow down your product team.

Typical signals that the platform needs engineering attention.

Platform bottlenecks

Too many infrastructure changes and deployments depend on a small number of people.

Developer friction

Product engineers spend increasing amounts of time understanding and operating infrastructure.

Growing Kubernetes complexity

The platform works, but operating and evolving it requires more effort than expected.

Fragile delivery

Releases depend on manual steps, specialist knowledge or fragile pipelines.

Reliability gaps

Observability and operational processes have not grown with the product.

Cloud complexity

Infrastructure, ownership and resource usage have become difficult to understand.

Let's look at your platform

How jaraco works

Assess

Understand architecture, organization, constraints and actual bottlenecks.

Design

Define pragmatic target architecture and priorities.

Implement

Work hands-on with the client team.

Enable

Transfer knowledge so the client remains in control.

Selected Project Stories

Short examples of how software, architecture, and automation support real operational change.

Clear first engagements

Platform Assessment

For cloud, Kubernetes, delivery and reliability questions. Outcome: technical clarity, risks, quick wins and a prioritized roadmap.

Discuss an Assessment

Practical PoC

For automation ideas, manual workflows, AI use cases and software bottlenecks. Outcome: a practical first solution to validate the next step.

Engineering roots, platform future.

jaraco GmbH grew out of Jan Radon's long-running software engineering and consulting work. The company brings hands-on architecture, platform engineering and implementation experience into client teams where delivery, operations and product engineering need to line up.

Today jaraco is a focused team of four employees and the founder. We combine senior engineering judgment with a clear ambition: turning jaraco into an AI-first company that uses automation and AI responsibly in its own work and in client delivery.

2011Jan Radon Software Engineering starts independent software and architecture work.
2019Jan Radon Consulting GmbH is founded to formalize consulting, architecture and delivery work.
2022The company is renamed jaraco GmbH and sharpens its focus on software, platforms and automation.
