About McHugh Analytics
Independent AI and cloud engineering consultancy, founded by Christopher McHugh.
About McHugh Analytics
I'm an independent consultant and engineer with over 10 years of experience in DevOps engineering and software development, including 4+ years working as a consultant engineer directly with client organizations.
I founded McHugh Analytics to offer SMEs and scale-ups access to the kind of senior engineering and AI expertise that usually only enterprise organizations can afford — without the overhead, the long contracts, or the agency markup.
My background is in cloud infrastructure and automation, and I've worked hands-on across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and on-premises environments. I'm not married to any particular technology or vendor — I pick the right tool for the job.
These days I'm particularly focused on helping businesses get real, practical value from AI — specifically agentic automation that removes genuine friction from their workflows, rather than AI for its own sake.

How I work
Understand first
I spend time understanding your actual situation before recommending anything. That means asking direct questions and being honest about what I find.
Pragmatic recommendations
I recommend what fits your scale and your team — not the most impressive solution, or the one I happen to know best.
Hands-on delivery
I build the things we agree on. You get something that works and that you can operate, extend, or hand off — not a report that sits on a shelf.
Want to work together?
I'm happy to have an initial conversation about your situation — no commitment, no pitch.
