Platform Engineering, CI/CD & Infrastructure for Regulated Systems
We design and operate internal platforms for teams working under strict security, audit, and compliance requirements — without slowing down delivery.
Our work focuses on building secure-by-design platforms where compliance, reliability, and governance are enforced by architecture, automation, and process — not manual controls.
Typical requirements we engineer for:
PCI-DSS • ISO27001 • GDPR • segregation of duties • audit trails • approval workflows • controlled CI/CD & infrastructure changes
Typical teams: banks, fintechs, payment providers, lending platforms, regulated SaaS.
H-Studio builds internal platforms for regulated systems where compliance, reliability, and governance are enforced by architecture, automation, and process. Platform engineering, CI/CD automation, Kubernetes operations for banks, fintechs, payment providers, and regulated SaaS companies in Germany and Europe.
Platform Engineering for Regulated Systems
Active • Production-Ready • Compliance-Driven
We build internal platforms where every change is traceable, reproducible, and auditable — from infrastructure provisioning to application deployment.
Regulated environments require a fundamentally different approach to platform engineering. We design systems where:
- •compliance rules are encoded into CI/CD and infrastructure
- •environments are isolated and reproducible
- •manual changes are eliminated
- •every deployment has a clear audit trail
Status overview
Secure & Audit-Ready CI/CD for Regulated Platforms
CI/CD pipelines for regulated systems must balance delivery speed with strict control. We design pipelines where security, approvals, and traceability are first-class citizens.
What we implement:
- •isolated runner environments
- •secrets encryption & automated rotation
- •multi-environment flows (dev → staging → production)
- •mandatory approvals & four-eyes principle
- •SAST / DAST security checks
- •traceable Kubernetes releases
Every deployment is predictable, reversible, and auditable.
Why Regulated Platforms Need Specialized Platform Engineering
Regulated platforms operate under three simultaneous constraints:
Compliance Constraints
- PCI-DSS • ISO27001 • GDPR • SOC2
- audit logs • retention policies • approval chains
Infrastructure Constraints
- high availability • encrypted data flows
- network isolation • controlled access
Operational Constraints
- predictable deployments
- reproducibility • zero-drift environments
- clear ownership and accountability
Our platform engineering approach addresses all three layers at once.
Engineering & Automation for Regulated Business Logic
Beyond infrastructure, we automate core regulated workflows and decision logic.
Risk Engines & Technical Calculators
Automated engines for:
- risk scoring
- credit decisioning
- interest calculations
- pricing rules
- transaction limits
Delivered with full transparency, reproducibility, and governance.
Compliance Automation & Workflow Engines
Automation for:
- KYC / AML workflows
- audit logs & retention rules
- transaction review processes
- multi-step approval flows
- document validation
Results: 5–10× faster compliance operations.
Rule-Based Configuration & Pricing Engines
Automated generation of:
- financial product configurations
- pricing logic with constraints
- margin and risk validation
- instant, compliant document outputs

What Our Clients Say
Real feedback from companies we've helped build reliable, scalable platforms
“ChronoAI now runs on the infrastructure H-Studio engineered — automated deployments, full monitoring, real-time analytics, and a backend that simply stays up. They transformed a rough SaaS concept into a production-ready platform in weeks. Every release is predictable, every environment is consistent, and performance remains stable even under load. This level of reliability and speed is rare in the SaaS world.”
