Azure-native platform engineering and security operations services
LAB3 is an Azure-first services firm built around infrastructure-as-code, cloud security, and SOC modernization. The tech stack is almost entirely Microsoft ecosystem (Azure, Sentinel, Entra, DevOps) with supporting DevOps tools (Terraform, Ansible). Active hiring is security-heavy (14 roles) relative to engineering (9), and projects cluster around two areas: infrastructure standardization (Virtual Desktop IaC, M365 configuration-as-code) and SOC maturation (log ingestion, KQL analytics, false-positive reduction) — revealing a services organization scaling its managed security and compliance practice.
LAB3 provides platform engineering and cloud services to mid-market organizations in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. The company operates as a services firm across three core pillars: cloud infrastructure (Azure migrations, cost optimization, workload tuning), security operations (SIEM analytics, SOC efficiency, compliance monitoring), and modern workplace enablement (Microsoft 365 deployments, identity and access management). Backed by proprietary automation and AI accelerators, LAB3 has 201–500 employees and was founded in 2017. The organization is headquartered in Melbourne.
LAB3 specializes in Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365 services. The stack includes Azure compute, networking, security (Sentinel, Defender for Cloud), identity (Entra, IAM), and DevOps tools like Terraform and Ansible.
Current projects include Azure Virtual Desktop infrastructure-as-code solutions, Microsoft 365 tenant standardization libraries, SIEM analytics via KQL, and SOC efficiency improvements including log ingestion pipelines and false-positive reduction frameworks.
