About Mechanical Orchard

Mechanical Orchard is a tech startup that offers a unique blend of custom application development and cloud operations as a service. The company's primary aim is to reduce risk and increase predictability for its clients, which primarily consist of Global 2000 customers. This is achieved by applying and adapting proven product, software engineering, and DevOps practices to the increasingly remote and technologically complex world we live in.

The company's services are particularly beneficial for businesses that need to build and run secure, reliable, and scalable applications. Mechanical Orchard takes the risk out of this process, allowing businesses to focus on their core operations. The company has a proven track record of success, having helped clients build high scale platforms and scalability testing tools that have been critical to their success.

Mechanical Orchard operates in the software development and cloud operations market. Its business model is based on providing consultancy services that combine software development and managed cloud operations. This approach is designed to serve both startups and Global 2000 companies in greenfield software development, legacy modernization, and the efficient operation of software in the cloud.

The company was founded by Rob Mee, who previously founded Pivotal Labs. Mechanical Orchard was formed in the image of Pivotal Labs, but with the lessons learned from Pivotal Software and the recent response to the Covid pandemic.
