What we do

Two services.
One goal.

Advisory to figure out what to build. Implementation to build it. Scope and price are agreed in writing before any work begins.

About

Built by someone who runs this stuff too.

Undercroft is a one-person infrastructure consulting practice run by Tanner Miller. The work focuses on helping people and small businesses take control of their infrastructure — self-hosted, Linux-first, and built to last.

The homelab and self-hosted space has matured. Proxmox, TrueNAS, Wazuh, CrowdSec — these aren't hobbyist toys anymore. They're production-grade tools that deserve production-grade setup. That's what Undercroft delivers.

No managed services. No upsells. Scoped work, documented handoffs, and infrastructure you actually understand when the engagement ends.
