About MKC

Engineering experience. Independent judgment.

MKC Technology Advisors is an independent, principal-led advisory practice. Clients work directly with its principal to evaluate consequential technical choices and receive recommendations grounded in the realities of engineering and operating software.

Independent by design.

The working philosophy

A technology decision is good when it serves the work it was made for.

Close to the work. Focused on the decision.

MKC’s principal brings a background in software engineering and technical leadership, with experience across software architecture, identity and security, digital payments, and cloud infrastructure. That experience informs an understanding of how technical decisions become long-term obligations for the teams responsible for them.

MKC was established to help organizations see their options clearly before committing. Its approach begins with what the work requires, which assumptions matter, and what an organization can realistically maintain, secure, and support.

Clients work directly with the principal through focused reviews, ongoing advisory relationships, and technical due diligence. The emphasis is on independent judgment—not on turning every recommendation into an implementation project.

Point of view

Complexity may be necessary. Complication must earn its place.

There is no universally correct stack or architecture. A small internal application and a high-scale identity platform should be evaluated against different requirements. Neither benefits from complexity added for its own sake—or simplicity chosen as a fashion.

The objective is to make tradeoffs visible, distinguish important risks from theoretical ones, and recommend what fits the organization and the people who will live with the result.

Bring the difficult question.

For an important technology choice, ongoing advisory relationship, or independent assessment of a transaction or internal technology risks, MKC welcomes a conversation.
