  • Integrations and third-party services
  • Data workflows and background processing
  • Event-driven systems
  • Databases, caching, and search
  • Cloud infrastructure

  • LLM applications
  • Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
  • AI agents and orchestration
  • Workflow automation
  • MCP and tool integrations
  • Structured data pipelines
  • Developer productivity tooling
Architecture & Modernization
Technical direction and the unglamorous work that keeps systems healthy over time.

  • Migrations and legacy modernization
  • Performance and reliability
  • Security and accessibility
  • Developer experience and tooling

Engagements

Ways to work together

Contract engineering

Hands-on delivery on a product or platform. Full-time or part-time, working directly with your team and codebase.

Technical consulting

Architecture and technical direction: system design, code and infrastructure review, and a practical path forward.

Modernization

Migrations, legacy modernization, and performance work delivered incrementally rather than as a big-bang rewrite.

AI & automation

LLM applications, RAG, agents, and workflow automation wired into real processes — with human oversight where it matters.

Process

How an engagement runs

  1. 01

    Scope the problem

    Clarify goals, constraints, and what success looks like. Review the existing code, systems, and data.

  2. 02

    Design the approach

    Propose an architecture and delivery plan with clear milestones. Align on stack and ownership.

  3. 03

    Build and ship

    Implement in small, reviewable increments and validate with the people who use the software.

  4. 04

    Hand off and support

    Leave behind documentation, tests, and context so the team can run and extend the system confidently.
