Pyrat Ltd was founded by Xan Manning in January 2017. Pyrat Ltd was originally created when Xan faced redundancy in his role as a Systems/DevOps Engineer and was investigating contracting roles. In February 2017, Xan found full time permanent employment and Pyrat Ltd remained a domant company having never traded.

A number of accounts had already been registered under the “Pyrat” name and became a brand for which Xan publishes code, for example “PyratLabs” on GitHub contains a number of free and open source projects published for consumption by the community. Projects will typically focus on Infrastructure as Code (IaC), automation and configuration management.
