Consulting · how to hire me

A small studio
of one.✶

I help teams figure out the shape of what they’re building: system design, infrastructure choices, and the boring decisions that quietly decide whether a product scales or stalls. I’m not the person you hire to crank out tickets; I’m the one who makes sure the right ones get written.

01 / Architect

System & infrastructure design.

I come in, listen, sketch, and leave you with a clear picture of the system you should be building: services, data, infra, integrations, deployment. Diagrams you can hand to engineers and decisions you can defend in a board meeting.

2 – 4 wk engagement
02 / Audit

Tech & infrastructure review.

For teams that already shipped: a structured look at what you have. Where the risk lives, what’s costing you, what you can ignore, and what to fix first. Delivered as a written report and a working session with your team.

1 – 2 wk engagement
03 / Advise

Standing technical advisor.

A weekly call plus async access. Useful for founders without a CTO yet, or product leads who want a trustworthy second brain to bounce technical and infrastructure decisions off. I’ll also help you hire the people who will actually build it.

How it goes
  1. STEP 01

    Email me

    A few lines about what you’re working on, the timeline, and where it’s stuck. I read everything.

  2. STEP 02

    30-minute intro

    Free call. We figure out whether I’m a fit. If not, I’ll point you somewhere better.

  3. STEP 03

    Short proposal

    Scope, dates, deliverables, price. One page. We start when we both sign.

Currently

Booking from November ’26 onwards. I keep things small, usually 2–3 engagements running at a time.

Not what you need? If you’re looking for someone to build the thing, I can point you to engineers I trust. Just ask.
