Four ways to engage, one senior engineer
No account managers, no junior hand-offs. From a single strategic decision to embedded multi-month builds - you work directly with the person writing the code.
Build
Bespoke software, end-to-end. I design it, write it, ship it, and stay long enough to make sure it works.
What that looks like
- Web & mobile applications
- APIs & data pipelines
- Cloud infrastructure & DevOps
- MVPs that become real products
AI optimization
Find the work your team hates doing, and let the model do it. Practical, measurable, boring-on-purpose AI.
What that looks like
- LLM & agent integration
- RAG & retrieval systems
- Workflow automation
- Evals, guardrails & cost control
Fractional CTO
Part-time technology leadership for founders, scaleups, and teams between hires. You get a senior in the room from day one.
What that looks like
- Architecture & technical direction
- Hiring & team building
- Vendor & build-vs-buy calls
- Board & investor support
Technology strategy
Short, sharp engagements when a decision matters. Build-vs-buy, platform migrations, technical due diligence.
What that looks like
- Technical due diligence
- Roadmaps & platform choices
- Architecture reviews
- Migration planning
How it works
Light process, heavy on shipping. Most engagements start within a week or two of the first call.
$ talk
A 30-minute call to understand the problem - no script, no sales deck.
$ scope
A short, honest proposal. A fixed outcome or a rolling monthly engagement.
$ build
Senior work, shipped in small increments you can see and use as I go.
$ own
You keep the code, the docs, and the keys. No lock-in, no mystery.
heads up: I'm a team of one and typically near capacity. If I'm not a fit right now, I'll say so honestly - and tell you when I might be.
$ check availability →Let's talk.
Tell me about the problem. I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit - and if I'm not, I'll point you to someone who is.
