About

A studio built on a governed engine.

BLCKBX isn't a reseller or a help desk. It's a software studio built on a single governed engine — the same engine now running four products in production.

BLCKBX is led by Brandon Jumper, a Red Hat Certified Architect. The company is built around one core engine — governed and designed to take a plain-language request through approval, execution, and results without manual glue code in between.

That engine is what runs every product BLCKBX ships: Compass AI for AI model containerization, ARNIE AI for infrastructure remediation, Echo for cognitive AI agents, and BLCK-BRT for security operations. It's also what runs client engagements — security assessments and custom application development both draw on the same architecture.

BLCKBX holds active partnerships with Red Hat, IBM, WatchGuard, Microsoft, HPE, JetBrains, the Linux Foundation, and DigitalOcean — bringing enterprise-grade tools and standards to every engagement, regardless of size.

Working with BLCKBX means working directly with the person who architected the platform — not a ticket number, and not a resold service.

Credentials

The expertise behind the work

Certifications and platform engineering that most local IT shops simply don't have.

Certification

Red Hat Certified Architect

The highest level of Red Hat certification — proof of deep, tested expertise in enterprise Linux, infrastructure, and security.

Engine

Engineered in-house

Every BLCKBX product runs on a governed engine designed and built in-house — not a tool we resell. We know exactly how it works because we wrote it.

Approach

Enterprise standards, applied broadly

The same hardening, monitoring, and governance practices used at large organizations — built into everything, from client work to our own products.

What we've built

Four platforms, running in production today

Proof the engine behind BLCKBX isn't theoretical — it's what we run every day.

Security Operations

BLCK-BRT

Security operations in plain English — MITRE ATT&CK mapping, compliance drift correction, and governed containment.

AI Infrastructure

Compass AI

Package any AI model into a standard OCI container with a single chat request — governed builds, live logs, automatic registry push.

Automation

ARNIE AI

Conversational infrastructure remediation, wired directly into Ansible and OpenShift for real, governed infrastructure change.

AI Agents

Echo

A multi-provider cognitive AI agent platform with credential management, fine-tuning pipelines, and git-native deployment.

Partnerships

Backed by the names you already trust

These partnerships mean better tools, better pricing, and a network of enterprise-grade resources behind your business.
