Get in touchWhat we do
Services
Consultancy, development, infrastructure and cloud, delivered with a preference for proven patterns and honest tooling.
Software Development
Bespoke software with clean architecture, minimal dependencies and thorough test coverage at every level. Automated pipelines from commit to deploy, built to be understood and maintained, not just delivered.
Infrastructure Management
Reproducible, version-controlled infrastructure on commodity platforms. Everything defined as code, tested before it's applied, and automated so it stays consistent, not just on day one.
Cloud Services
Cloud design, migration and optimisation, all codified and repeatable. Sensible use of standard services, not every problem needs a managed product, and not every architecture needs a diagram that fills a wall.
Our products
SaaS
Alongside client work, Coniston IT builds and operates its own software products. Each one solves a real operational problem we've encountered in the field, with as few moving parts as we can get away with.
Envor
Cloud-native environment scheduling & FinOps
Provision and deprovision non-production environments outside of working hours. A straightforward, policy-driven scheduler that cuts cloud waste without changing how your teams work.
MoreBreaker
Production break-glass with flexible controls

Open tooling
Toolbox
CLI tools we've built and use ourselves. Free to download, built with Go.
terragraft
v0.29.0 GoA config-based, opinionated Terraform wrapper that can get out of your way when you want to use Terraform natively. Handles workspace selection, variable injection and plan/apply workflows through a single config file, then steps aside for anything it doesn't need to own. Great for CI.

Who we are
Our People
Coniston IT Limited is led by Jonathan Heather. What started as a focused IT consultancy in 2017 has grown into a business spanning software development, infrastructure management, cloud services and proprietary SaaS products.
We like proven patterns, commodity infrastructure, and implementations you can reason about. Automate everything worth automating, define infrastructure as code, test properly. If a dependency doesn't earn its place, it doesn't stay.
Based in the UK and working with clients who prefer straight talking and a comfortable conversation.
