Work In Tech

Company Overview:
iTmethods is a 20+ year-old firm specializing in managed services, enterprise AI, DevOps, and cloud integration. As an AWS MSP and SOC 2 Type II certified company, we're radically transforming our business around AI capabilities through our iTmethodsONE platform—a central hub for AI/ML, DevOps, Cloud, Compliance, Security, and FinOps. Key offerings include:

• AI-Assisted Development (enterprise-grade coding assistants, MLOps integration for productivity boosts),
• Modular DevOps (LEGO-like secure CI/CD workflows, flexible automation, scalable pipelines),
• Secure Cloud Deployments (hybrid/on-premise/cloud patterns, multi-cloud support, hot-swappable testing, peak load handling),
• Security & Compliance (24/7 monitoring, DevSecOps, air-gapped isolation, GDPR-aligned protection, enterprise IP security, reliable outcomes), and
• FinOps Optimization (resource optimization, CapEx-to-OpEx conversion with 30-40% cost reduction, real-time visibility).

With 50+ integrations (e.g., GitHub, CI/CD, Sonar, AWS, Azure), we deliver 25-35% development cycle reductions and drive results for enterprises across the US, Canada, and Europe. Profitable and founder-led, we punch above our weight as a smaller firm operating with purpose and urgency to win in the marketplace. Our customer-obsessed culture is fully transforming to a post-AI world, prioritizing innovative, AI-driven solutions that exceed client expectations and push the boundaries of enterprise technology.
