Red Vector | Technology & AI Consultancy Perth

From architecture to execution.

Applied AI & agentic development

Purpose-built agents and AI-accelerated delivery. We run a pipeline of close to twenty agents — and use it to ship production systems on timelines conventional teams can't match.

Enterprise AI enablement

Moving large organisations from AI experimentation to enterprise-grade capability — the platforms, governance and practitioner skills to run agentic AI reliably at scale.

Architecture & design

Systems designed business-first, in layers — domain before technology. Architectures that hold up as the business changes, with decisions you never have to relitigate.

Cloud & platform engineering

Durable cloud foundations and migration across AWS and Azure — plus the Kubernetes, CI/CD and developer tooling your teams run on.

Digital product delivery

End-to-end web and mobile — architecture, backend services, frontend and deployment. Complex, transaction-grade systems shipped with an AI-accelerated model.

Engineering leadership & advisory

Fractional leadership, SDLC and delivery uplift, and a senior practitioner in your corner for the calls that matter. We tune the team as a system — leverage over headcount.

Two markets. The same quality bar.

Mining · Energy · Infrastructure

Resources sector

Red Vector works with mining, energy and infrastructure operators — from WA-headquartered majors through to global resource companies. Resources clients value local presence, accessible leadership, and an advisor who understands the operational reality of the sector — not just the technology.

Large-scale digital transformation

Operational AI adoption

Platform modernisation & scaling

Perth-based. Current engagements with a global resources major.

Small & mid-market business

Red Vector works with professionally run businesses that need senior technical expertise they cannot justify hiring full-time. The cost of getting architecture, AI and delivery wrong compounds over time — a trusted external advisor consistently outperforms a rotating roster of generalist contractors.

Scaling fast or modernising legacy systems

Cloud adoption and AI strategy

Senior expertise without the full-time hire

Typically at an inflection point — scaling, modernising, or finding AI leverage.

From problem to production, in months.

Diagnose

We get deep into the business — not just the systems. Understanding context is how we find the right problem to solve.

Prioritise

We identify the highest-leverage interventions first: the work that shows measurable results within three months, not three years.

Deliver

Senior-led, AI-accelerated delivery alongside your team. Faster timelines without the heroics or the handoffs.

Sustain

Documented, owned by you. We leave your team stronger — not dependent on us to keep the lights on.

What makes this different.

AI is not a feature. It is how we work.

Agentic workflows are embedded in how Red Vector delivers software. Clients benefit directly — faster turnaround, lower cost, and delivery capacity that scales without proportional effort.

Results in months, not years.

We identify the highest-leverage interventions first — the work that shows measurable results within three months — and build from there. This keeps momentum high and business cases easy to defend.

Senior-led, always.

Every engagement is owned by a senior practitioner — the strategic lead, the architect, and the relationship owner. Clients are never handed off to a junior or managed by account staff.

Business-first, not technology-first.

Our methodology starts with the business — its structure, its constraints, and the problem being solved. Technology is selected last, not first. This produces designs that hold up over time.

Perth-local. Nationally and globally capable.

Headquartered in Perth — and in the resources sector, that is not incidental. It means shared timezone, accessible leadership, and an advisor who is present when it matters. Current and recent engagements span Australia and global organisations.

Built on a decade of decisions.

I'm Nihal Sunthankar — Sunny. I started out as a software and mobile engineer, then spent close to six years as a Senior Cloud Architect at Amazon Web Services, leading large customer teams through complex transformations and contributing to engagements that generated over a billion dollars in downstream customer value. When those customers engaged through AWS, many asked for me specifically.

Over that decade, my work shifted steadily upstream — from writing code to designing the systems code sits inside. I developed a layered architecture methodology that starts with the business, works through information and application structure, and arrives at technology selection last. The conviction behind it has never changed: a technically sound design that ignores the business will fail. One grounded in the business will outlast the technology it runs on.

More recently I've taken the AI shift head-on — building a complete agentic delivery pipeline across close to twenty purpose-built agents, delivering production-grade software at a fraction of the usual effort. In early 2026, I founded Red Vector to work directly with the clients I'd built relationships with, and to bring that delivery model to organisations that want to move fast and build things that last.

We engineer direction for your technology.
