Foundation stones
for Terraform

We build production-grade Terraform providers for SaaS platforms — designed, shipped, and maintained the way infrastructure deserves.

Shipa

Cloud-native application platform · 2021–2022

Cross-ecosystem expansion: Terraform providers for Shipa and Ketch, a Pulumi provider for Ketch, and a Crossplane provider — letting Shipa's platform reach Terraform, Pulumi, and Crossplane users from a single engagement.

Communication was top-notch. Met all deadlines. Delivered good work and I enjoyed working with him.— Engineering team, Shipa

Solvexia

Process automation platform · 2020–2021

Zapier and Workato connectors for Solvexia's automation platform — bringing their workflow primitives to a much larger no-code audience through standardized triggers and actions. A long-running engagement across multiple projects.

A rare catch. Helped us in all the projects we did with him — great communication and quality of work.— CTO, Solvexia

How a provider gets built, in four steps.

Map the API surface

We start by surveying your API with you — what's stable, what's changing, what's worth modeling as a Terraform resource and what isn't. The provider's shape is decided here, not in code.

Design the schema

Resource shapes, computed-vs-configurable fields, plan modifiers, import semantics, deprecation paths. Schema design is the highest-leverage decision — it's the contract every consumer's HCL will be written against.

Build with tests

Unit tests for translation logic; acceptance tests against a real environment for everything else. We don't ship resources we can't test against the actual API — and we keep the test environment running long after launch.

Ship and maintain

Registry publishing, semver discipline, signed releases, deprecation paths, and a maintenance footing that survives both your API revisions and Terraform's framework changes. The point of a provider isn't launch — it's everything that comes after.

A small studio, doing one thing well.

Aligned Labs is a small studio of provider specialists, led by Volodymyr. We work directly with engineering teams — no account managers, no slide decks. If you want to know who's writing your code, you'll know.

We've been building Terraform and IaC providers since 2021. Our work is hosted under our clients' own GitHub organizations, maintained continuously, and tested against real environments. We say no to engagements where we couldn't do the work properly.

Open for engagements.

We take on a small number of new provider engagements each year. If you're a SaaS platform thinking about a Terraform provider — new, inherited, or expanding into Pulumi/Crossplane — we'd like to hear from you.
