Technology Consulting

We build platforms that don't go down

Cloud infrastructure and DevOps expertise from HSBC, PayPal, and AWS — delivering enterprise reliability to African banks and fintechs.

Start a conversation

Global expertise, brought home

The idea of Stratus Partners was conceived following discussions between our founders about the poor state of the Nigerian online banking space. One of us had tried to use a bank app, and for 3 days, there was downtime. This caused him to miss out on an opportunity.

Having lived in the United Kingdom for almost 2 decades and worked in IT consulting for top commercial banks, FinTechs, government institutions and multinationals for over a decade, we decided to bring our wealth of knowledge and experience back home.

Our mission is to implement technology solutions that enable African blue-chips to provide world-class services, and to halt the prevalence of downtimes and unreliable systems in their online operations.

SPL was registered as an Africa-focused technology consulting company, with an objective to implement solutions that will address the erratic performance of IT infrastructure and mobile apps in Africa.

From fragile estates to reliable, app-centric experiences

We help banks move away from brittle, manually operated systems toward cloud-native, automated platforms – supporting app-centric journeys, modern payments flows and data-driven decision-making.

Cloud & DevOps services for real-world teams

Our offerings follow two pillars – Consult & Architect and Build & Optimise – moving from assessment through implementation and continuous improvement.

Consult & Architect

DevOps Capability Assessment

A structured review of your DevOps practices across people, process, and tooling. Delivered in four phases: initial assessment, findings & recommendations, action plan, and progress tracking.

Consult & Architect

Cloud Principles & Foundations

Well-architected reviews, risk and security analysis, cost modelling, and target architectures implemented as code – creating a solid landing zone for product teams.

Build & Optimise

Build & Optimise

CI/CD & Deployment Optimisation

Continuous Integration and Deployment pipelines that facilitate rapid delivery of code from developers to production without manual intervention, reducing errors and deployment cycles.

Build & Optimise

Build & Optimise
