Foundry
Foundry: Long-lived software, built with architectural discipline.
Most teams ship software that works today. Foundry builds software that remains correct years from today — under load, under change, and under real operational pressure. Foundry is XRiley taking responsibility for delivery end-to-end: shaping the architecture, writing the code, validating it under real conditions, and staying through rollout and early operation so correctness isn't left to chance.
How Foundry Works
Architecture and code, shaped together
We begin with boundaries, failure behavior, and the contracts the system must honor. Implementation follows architectural intent — not the other way around.
Senior engineers embedded with your team
No handoffs to disconnected teams. No junior staffing. Foundry works alongside your engineers, shaping decisions with operational awareness.
Delivery aligned to production reality
We design for real load, real failure modes, and real on-call expectations. Everything we build is rehearsed against the conditions it must survive.
Rollout and early operation, not abandonment
We stay through deployment, stabilization, and the first critical weeks — ensuring the system behaves correctly before transitioning ownership.
When Foundry Is the Right Fit
Systems that sit at the core of your business
Rebuilds of critical paths that have accumulated entropy
Platforms that must remain predictable as teams and load grow
Software replacing brittle legacy or shadow-IT systems
Delivery where correctness, not feature velocity, determines success
Organizations that need senior execution, not staff augmentation
What You Receive
- A system designed and implemented as a coherent whole
- Predictable behavior under change, growth, and operational pressure
- Clear boundaries and contracts your team can extend safely
- Code written with failure behavior and observability in mind
- A rollout path tested for real-world conditions
- A system that can be reasoned about long after delivery
Foundry is engineering craftsmanship for systems that must endure.
If your system must be built to last, Foundry is where engineering discipline meets delivery.
For teams building systems that must remain correct under real operational pressure, Foundry delivers senior engineering end-to-end.
