"A DevOps Transformation That Needed a Partner, Not a Vendor"

The company operates one of the largest shared communications infrastructure networks in the United States. At that scale, how fast engineering teams build, test, and deploy isn't an operational detail. It's a strategic constraint. Their environment couldn't support the pace and complexity the business required.

TAWS and Kubernetes. Seven languages deployed as microservices and Lambda, including Java, Python, Go, and multiple Node and Next.js variants, each with its own supporting CI/CD pipeline. GitHub, Sonar, Nexus, Lifecycle, and Jira, all orchestrated through Harness.

Our work spanned the CI/CD platform, Terraform infrastructure, base container images, system integration, and custom CLI tooling that glued GitHub, Harness, Sonar, Jira, Lifecycle, and Nexus together.

Modernize took this on as primary Harness partner: stabilizing and scaling the CI/CD platform, integrating it across the provider's toolchain, and building the custom tooling that made the environment work end-to-end. This wasn't advice from the sidelines. We rebuilt the delivery framework for scale.

Security was a gap. The environment had no container security in place, so we drove the move to scan and harden containers, and pushed broader security improvements across the platform.

The result: a platform with stronger integration, visibility, security, and automation end-to-end. Engineering teams now move faster, with CI/CD that grows with the organization instead of constraining it. The constraint that started this engagement is gone.
