Who You'll Work With
Mark Gillette — Founder & Principal Consultant
Since earning my first Apple certification in 2003, I've spent 20 years building and securing infrastructure for organisations just like yours across New Zealand. The difference? You're not handed off to a helpdesk or junior technician. We work together directly—from initial design through deployment and ongoing support. You get strategic guidance backed by decades of hands-on experience, not reactive support from someone reading a script.
Specialisations:
- • Apple platform engineering
- • Linux infrastructure
- • Zero Trust security
- • Identity platforms
Also:
- • Networking
- • Automation
- • Documentation
Every engagement is designed, delivered, and supported by me personally, not a helpdesk tier, not a rotating junior technician.
You get continuity, clarity, and deep technical expertise from day one.
Certifications:
Everything Works Together
These capabilities combine to form one cohesive platform, not a menu of disconnected services
Apple & macOS/iOS Fleet Management
Your team gets fully configured devices on day one, security updates happen automatically, and when someone leaves, everything's handled. Apple devices that just work, without the IT headaches.
Linux & Open-Source Infrastructure
Reliable servers that run your business without vendor lock-in or surprise licensing fees. You own your infrastructure, and we make sure it stays secure and up-to-date.
Secure Identity & Zero Trust Access
One login for everything, with proper security that actually stops breaches. Your team gets easy access to what they need, while keeping everyone else out.
Enterprise Networking & Wi-Fi
Rock-solid Wi-Fi that handles full conference rooms and busy offices without dropping out. Fast, reliable internet that doesn't become everyone's problem to solve.
Backup & Disaster Recovery That Actually Works
Regular backups that we actually test, so you know exactly how fast you'll be back up when something goes wrong. Sleep better knowing your data's protected.

Book a Free SessionHow We Work
Simple by Design
Your systems work the way you'd expect them to. When something needs attention, you'll understand what's happening and why—no confusing tech-speak required.
Protected From Day One
Your client data, financial records, and confidential work stay locked down with multiple layers of protection. We build this in from the start, not as an afterthought.
You Stay in Control
Your data lives where you choose, you can switch providers anytime, and everything is documented in plain English. No mysterious setups that only we understand.
Training Included
We create step-by-step guides and train your team to handle routine tasks themselves. You get confident and capable, not stuck calling us for every little thing.
Senior-Engineer Led: You get 20 years of infrastructure expertise on every project. No guessing. No escalations. No junior handoffs.
