AWS & cloud engineering

Once leadership decides something should happen every time, this is what makes it permanent, well-architected, cost-aware infrastructure, led in-house by Tyson Nichols.

Why It's In-House

Most fractional Integrators outsource this

A meeting rhythm and a set of dashboards get you visibility and a plan. They don't get you an invoice that automatically triggers a client follow-up, or an alert that fires before a customer notices a problem. That takes engineering, the kind most advisory firms send to a separate vendor who has never sat in your leadership meeting and doesn't know why a given workflow matters.

Tyson built his career running production AWS infrastructure and writing the automation that quietly does the work people used to do by hand. At ClearwaterIQ, he owns this practice outright: the same senior-level craft, applied inside the same accountable relationship as the rest of the engagement.

What's Included

Engineering sized for SMB budgets, not enterprise price tags

Systems integration

Event-driven connections between your ERP, CRM, accounting, and operational systems. If it has an API, we can put it to work.

Process automation

Reports assembled by hand, data re-keyed between tools, files moved on a schedule, scripted, scheduled, and monitored so it happens every time.

Monitoring & alerting

Uptime and performance monitoring, actionable alerting, and dashboards that show the health of every system you rely on.

Cloud architecture & AWS

Migrations, greenfield builds, security and cost reviews, and infrastructure-as-code, documented, repeatable, and auditable.

Led By

Tyson Nichols, Cloud, DevOps & Automation Lead

Tyson's craft was built in production, where things have to work every day. He has spent his career running AWS infrastructure and writing the Python and Ansible automation that quietly does work people used to do by hand, reliably, on schedule, without being asked twice.
