Engineering and AI consultancy
Clear Cut Coding leads engineering teams and projects, builds and runs backends and AWS platforms, and designs agentic AI systems built to hold up in production. We work with UK businesses, on site or remote.
Technical leadership that stays close to the code.
We set the technical direction, plan delivery and raise a team’s standards, with code review, CI, automated releases and proper test coverage, building alongside the team as we go. It suits teams without a lead, projects that have slipped, and founders who need senior technical judgement in the room.
PHP/Symfony and TypeScript backends, and the AWS platforms they run on.
We build APIs, integrations and the infrastructure underneath them. We break monoliths into services that scale independently, move platforms onto highly available, auto-scaled AWS infrastructure, and keep orders, stock and deliveries flowing as volumes grow.
Agentic AI systems built like any other production system.
That means clear architecture, automated tests, audit trails and human review where it matters. We build agentic AI into your own products and systems: MCP servers, agent integrations and the test suites that keep them honest. We assess where agentic workloads should run, and set engineering teams up to work with agentic coding tools, with planning, review and merge kept in human hands.

Open-weight language model
We design the evaluation for a team training an open-weight model to give sound guidance without a system prompt: realistic scenarios where the right answer depends on values the person never states, each paired with a weighted rubric that serves as both the grader and the training reward.

Tell us about the project, the role or the problem. We’ll say plainly whether we’re the right fit.
We agree the scope, the time commitment and what success looks like, on day-rate terms, on site or remote across the UK.
We get to know your codebase, team and infrastructure early, and agree what ‘done’ looks like.
You get plain progress updates and reviewed, tested code, then documentation and a handover, so nothing depends on us once we’ve gone.
