ABOUT ATLAS STACK GROUP
Built from real-world cloud infrastructure experience — not theory.
Atlas Stack Group was founded by an engineer who has designed, operated, and fixed production systems in regulated and high-stakes environments.
Atlas Stack Group was created after seeing the same pattern across multiple environments — infrastructure that works early, but breaks under scale, compliance pressure, or production load.
Pipelines become fragile. Credentials become liabilities. Systems pass audits on paper but fail in practice.
We built this firm to solve those problems at the foundation — not patch over them.
HOW WE THINK ABOUT INFRASTRUCTURE
- • Systems should be secure by default, not patched later
- • Automation should replace manual processes entirely
- • Infrastructure should be auditable and predictable
- • Platforms should enable engineers — not slow them down
20+ AWS accounts
Standardized multi-account foundations
OIDC + IAM
Secured CI/CD authentication in regulated environments
Observability stacks
Metrics, logs, tracing across distributed systems
Audit-ready workflows
Traceable infrastructure change management
What we do
Infrastructure foundations, delivery systems, and platform enablement.
Our work focuses on the foundational systems that enable teams to build, deploy, and operate software reliably at scale.
- Cloud infrastructure architecture
- DevOps implementation and CI/CD automation
- Platform engineering and internal developer tooling
- Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and automation frameworks
- Containerized infrastructure using Docker and Kubernetes
- Observability and monitoring platforms
- Secure cloud environments aligned with modern security standards
Our philosophy
Modern platforms depend on disciplined infrastructure.
Modern platforms don’t fail because of scale — they fail because of inconsistent infrastructure.
Too many teams try to grow while their systems remain fragile, reactive, and poorly automated.
We believe infrastructure should be reliable under load, secure by default, automated by design, and observable at every layer.
Reliable
Systems that hold up under load and change.
Secure
Practical controls that fit real delivery pipelines.
Automated
Repeatable workflows over manual steps and tribal knowledge.
Observable
High-signal telemetry that supports fast decisions.
Designed to scale
Clear patterns that teams can adopt consistently.
Founder
Built by an engineer who has worked inside real production environments.
Atlas Stack Group was founded by Cleo Howard, a cloud and DevOps engineer with hands-on experience designing and operating infrastructure across enterprise and regulated environments.
CLEO HOWARD
Founder • Cloud & DevOps Engineer
His work has focused on:
- • multi-account AWS architecture
- • secure CI/CD systems using OIDC and IAM
- • platform engineering and internal tooling
- • observability across distributed systems
This work is grounded in real-world systems — where reliability, security, and compliance are not optional.
Experience includes work in regulated environments and large-scale cloud systems where auditability, security, and uptime are critical.
Certifications: AWS Solutions Architect Professional and CompTIA Security+.
Who we work with
We work with teams building systems that can’t afford to fail.
Our goal is to help engineering teams build infrastructure that supports long-term growth and operational excellence.
- Scaling cloud-native platforms without introducing instability
- Building internal developer platforms
- Modernizing infrastructure with DevOps automation
- Operating in regulated or security-sensitive environments
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to help organizations build reliable, secure cloud platforms that support long-term growth without unnecessary complexity.
