Built by engineers, for engineers
Excaliant was founded on a simple observation: most IT consulting firms prioritize selling products over solving problems. We reversed that. Our team is made up of engineers who have sat in your seat — managing production systems, fighting fires, and trying to modernize without breaking what works.
Our story
Excaliant started in 2017 when a small group of infrastructure engineers saw the same pattern repeat: enterprises paying premium rates for consultants who delivered generic playbooks and disappeared after the engagement.
The founding principle was straightforward — hire people who have actually built and operated production systems at scale, then give them the freedom to do right by the client. No sales quotas. No vendor kickbacks. Just good engineering.
That approach worked. Excaliant grew from a small infrastructure shop to a full-service IT solutions firm with expertise across cloud, security, data, and DevOps. We are based in the United Kingdom and serve clients across the UK and internationally.
Key Milestones
What we stand for
These aren't poster slogans. They're operating principles that shape how we hire, how we work, and how we hold ourselves accountable.
Engineering rigor
We don't cut corners. Every solution is designed, reviewed, and tested to production standards before it ships.
Honest communication
If something won't work for your situation, we'll tell you. We'd rather lose a deal than sell you the wrong solution.
Long-term thinking
We build for where you'll be in three years, not just where you are today. Technical debt is a cost we help you avoid.
Partnership over vendor relationship
Your success metrics are our success metrics. We embed with your team and share accountability for outcomes.
Our team
We are a team of engineers and consultants with deep experience across cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, data, and DevOps. We work directly with clients — no account managers in between.
Join our team
We hire experienced engineers and consultants who want to do meaningful work. If you're tired of bureaucracy and want to work on problems that matter, we should talk.
