Leighton

Leighton builds software products intended to differentiate a business, alongside systems that automate or optimise critical processes. Based in England, the company works with organisations looking for experienced, agile development support rather than a generic build shop, describing its model as "build as a service" with embedded experts working directly inside client teams.

The range of services covers application development, systems integration, cloud architecture across AWS, Azure and GCP, and DevSecOps enablement, supported by manual and automated testing to keep releases stable. Leighton holds AWS Advanced Tier Partner status and counts an AWS Hero and an AWS Community Builder among its staff, giving the cloud engineering practice a grounding in current AWS tooling and community involvement.

Delivery examples include testing market viability for a new product with an MVP built in 20 weeks, and streamlining access to applications through a single sign-on solution. Leighton states it is trusted by some of the world's biggest brands, reflecting a mix of product discovery, cloud architecture and performance engineering work carried out for clients with demanding technical requirements.
