Senior Data Architecture. Without the full-time overhead.
We help mid-market companies and operators eliminate fragile spreadsheets, connect siloed business systems, and build scalable data pipelines that drive real EBITDA decisions. Senior engineering, transparent execution, and bottom-line results that are not rocket science.
Meet Hyperion. The Sovereign Multi-Tenant CRM Built for Extreme Speed.
Legacy enterprise CRMs lock mid-market companies into six-figure seat taxes, sluggish multi-second queries, and walled gardens. Hyperion delivers complete database sovereignty: sub-5ms ACID transactions, Git-native Schema-as-Code, zero-trust sandboxed triggers, and an enterprise Lightning UX requiring zero user retraining.
Real-Time Executive Pipeline & Operations Telemetry
Direct sub-millisecond aggregation of deal stages, multi-tenant cashflow forecasting, and automated win-rate analytics with zero latency and zero data-warehouse lag.
- ✓ Sub-second pipeline velocity and cashflow projections across all business units.
- ✓ Real-time conversion tracking without waiting for nightly batch ETL jobs.
- ✓ Instant drill-down to underlying sovereign transaction records.
Complete Data Sovereignty
Host in your AWS/GCP VPC, private cloud, or on-premise hardware. Zero per-seat taxation, zero unexpected price hikes, and zero vendor lock-in.
Git-Native Schema-as-Code
Manage your enterprise objects and custom fields (__c) declaratively in schema.yaml with full Git history and instant zero-downtime migrations.
"The Apex Killer" Sandbox
Execute mission-critical business logic in a secure zero-trust runtime with hard 500ms timeouts, recursion protection, and microsecond latency.
The Friction
The "Data Rich, Insight Poor" Trap
Most companies don't suffer from a lack of data; they suffer from fractured systems and fragile reporting.
Data Silos
ERP, Salesforce, QuickBooks, warehouse terminals, GA4. None of them communicate seamlessly. Your team wastes hours manually exporting and stitching together CSVs.
Fragile Reporting
Your core decision dashboard is an over-engineered spreadsheet that breaks if a column moves. Executive meetings stall because departments disagree on whose numbers are right.
The Hiring Trap
A full-time Data Architect commands $180k+ plus equity, recruiting fees, and months of onboarding. You don't need permanent headcount; you need targeted senior expertise that delivers immediate ROI.

Proven Outcomes
Measurable Impact, Not Just Code
Here is what happens when senior architecture meets targeted execution:
Engineered custom hardware scanner middleware interfacing directly with core ERP (Subiekt GT/Nexo). Slashed stock reconciliation cycles from 18 hours down to 4 hours, virtually eliminating shipment errors.
Audited and unified redundant platform infrastructure across two acquired entities. Migrated fragmented ETL jobs into a centralized automated warehouse in 30 days, canceling duplicative vendors.
Replaced weekend manual spreadsheet marathons with an automated single source of truth. Executive leadership and board members now receive real-time churn, pipeline, and cash flow projections on demand.
