About NexusMind
Boutique cloud and security consulting for ambitious teams.
NexusMind is a remote-first consulting company helping EU and US organisations design secure, scalable cloud platforms – without the overhead of large consultancies.
Our mission & story
We started NexusMind to give technology-led teams direct access to senior cloud and security expertise – without layers of account management, hand-offs or slideware.
Founded by experienced cloud architects and security specialists, NexusMind emerged from a simple observation: most companies don't need an army of consultants. They need a handful of senior engineers who understand both the technology and the business context. We built NexusMind to be that partner – technically deep, commercially pragmatic, and focused on outcomes rather than billable hours. Every engagement is led by principals who have built and secured production platforms at scale.
Our philosophy is straightforward: security and reliability are not bolt-ons, they're foundational. We design cloud platforms with zero-trust principles, compliance requirements, and operational excellence built in from day one. We're vendor-agnostic – we recommend Azure, GCP, or AWS based on your needs, not our partnerships. And we're remote-first, working across EU and US time zones to support distributed teams wherever they are.
Why NexusMind
What we believe in.
A small, senior team focused on clarity, security and real outcomes – not just documents and frameworks.
Transparent Pricing
No hidden fees or enterprise sales games. You know exactly what you pay and why.
Security First
Every architecture decision starts with security. Zero-trust by default, compliance built in.
Vendor Agnostic
We recommend the right tools for your needs, not what pays us the highest commission.
Pragmatic Approach
We balance best practices with real-world constraints. No ivory-tower consulting.
Knowledge Transfer
We document everything and train your team. Our goal is to make you self-sufficient.
Long-term Partnership
We build relationships, not one-off projects. Your success is our success.
Team

NexusMind operates as a boutique network of senior consultants, assembled based on the needs of each engagement.
