What We Do

Engineering for Programs That Can’t Afford to Stall

Four practice areas, one standard: senior engineers, modern practices, and work you can review.

AI & Software Engineering

Agentic AI, RAG and LLMs deployed in environments you control, built with the same modern software practices as everything else we ship.

Cloud & DevSecOps

Secure platforms on AWS, AWS GovCloud (US) and Azure, with infrastructure as code and CI/CD pipelines that have security built in.

Palantir Engineering

Consulting and engineering on Palantir platforms for DoW programs, including Maven Smart System and Army Vantage.

Training & Simulation

Modern engineering for DoW training and simulation systems, from constructive simulation to synthetic training environments.

Featured Story

Turning Rotation-by-Rotation Data Replication Into a Reusable Pattern

U.S. Army CPM Plus · subcontractor via General Dynamics Mission Systems

Training rotations once needed hand-built replication to get instrumentation data into ECMA / cArmy for analytics and after-action reviews. Thazen engineers built a reusable change-data-capture pattern that streams database changes to both an operational database and an analytics lakehouse, with one infrastructure-as-code template per rotation.

Proof-of-concept results: sub-second end-to-end latency; environments stood up or torn down in under 30 minutes; designed to scale to dozens of concurrent rotations without redesign.

Next Generation Constructive (NGC)

U.S. Army · subcontractor via General Dynamics Mission Systems

New simulation environments come online in minutes through Terraform and GitOps, and a service mesh with workload identity and mutual TLS secures traffic between clusters.

How We Work

AI-accelerated. Engineer-led.

Our engineers use AI to move faster and stay accountable for everything that ships. They built and use Topsoil, our private AI coding agent, the same way.
