The Landing Zone That Survived
A fictional Wellington fintech, realistic problems — from mandate and discovery through Petone exit and the platform becoming invisible. Twelve narrative parts in programme order, after a pilot overview (Part 11 annual review opens the finale).
The focus is sponsors, fractional capacity, pilot partnerships, design arguments absorbed into one document, cost surprises, operating models under pressure, and decommissioning as a deliverable.
Written for platform engineers, cloud architects, and delivery leads who want the messy middle, not a sanitised case study.
