About us

ctrl + shift was born when our founder looked at their résumé - a neat timeline of famous logos followed by a decade of ramen‑fueled startup rocket rides - and thought, “This would make a great cocktail.” Stir a background in engineering, add a splash of scrappy scale‑up chaos, garnish with an irrational love of helping rookie brands punch above their weight, and voilà: a consultancy that turns operational mayhem into margin.

We plug into your stack on day one - Slack channels, stand‑ups, Jira boards, QBRs. We will be sweating the month‑end metrics right beside you, not from some PowerPoint perch. Targets become shared oxygen, and we stay in the trench until the dashboard turns green.

Our vibe? Strategy you can start at 9 a.m. and see moving by lunch. Insights over dogma. Jargon‑free zones. And enough good humour to make the tough sprints fun.

We love late‑night Slack pings and are all about breakthroughs. Mainline caffeine like it’s venture fuel, and clock progress by how much we ship before month closing.

What else?

What else?

What else?

Working with us feels more like adding an API call than hiring a consultant. Monday: we sync on goals; Tuesday: we’re inside your WMS, ERP, and BI stack; Friday: we are already deep in the work driving margins.

No 50‑page SOWs, no mystery invoices—just Kanban cards, Git commits, and line‑item clarity.

Quick response.

Watch our response time beat half your push notifications. We aim for same‑day replies (often same‑hour), because momentum matters and inbox limbo kills deals.
