Built by people who lived the bad migration
NymbiLabs was founded in 2016 in Raleigh, North Carolina, by Rachel Hartwell and Mark Delaney — after Rachel lived through a cloud migration at a national health system that went eleven months over schedule and 3x over budget.
The lesson: mid-market companies don't need more cloud consultants. They need an operating partner who stays after the migration and runs the environment like it's their own.
What started as a two-person AWS consultancy is now a 68-person managed services provider running cloud infrastructure for 142 companies across healthcare, financial services, logistics, and professional services. We've stayed founder-owned and profitable since year one — no investors, no pressure to oversell, no incentive to make your environment more complicated than it needs to be.
Four things we won't compromise on
Boring is beautiful
The best infrastructure is the kind nobody talks about. We optimize for uneventful.
Senior people, small pods
Every client is served by a named engineering pod of 3–4 people who know your environment. No ticket roulette.
Transparency by default
Our runbooks, documentation, and dashboards are yours. If we ever part ways, you leave with everything.
Right-sized security
Enterprise-grade security shouldn't require an enterprise budget. NymbiShield brings a real 24/7 SOC to the mid-market.
