Why Los Angeles

Kubernetes consulting services
built for Los Angeles's market

Los Angeles is a more diverse enterprise tech market than people expect. Disney, Warner Bros, Netflix (Burbank), and the entertainment tech axis sit alongside SpaceX, Northrop Grumman, and defense aerospace in the South Bay, plus major healthcare systems and a massive retail and logistics sector. Each industry has distinct infrastructure needs — THNKBIG brings the breadth to serve all of them.

FAQ

Common questions from Los Angeles teams

Can you handle media and video processing workloads on Kubernetes?
Yes. We've built Kubernetes platforms for video transcoding, content delivery, and media asset management for LA-area entertainment companies. This includes GPU-accelerated encoding jobs, storage-optimized node pools for massive video files, and integration with CDN providers for global content distribution.
How quickly can you start?
Most engagements kick off within 5–10 business days. We start with a cloud audit, then move into sprint-based delivery.
Do we need to commit to a long-term contract?
No. We offer month-to-month engagements and fixed-scope projects. Most clients start with a 90-day pilot.
Will your team work within our existing tools and workflows?
Yes. We embed with your team using your Jira, Slack, GitHub, and CI tooling. We're an extension of your org, not a separate vendor.
