Need a complex project
done properly?

I take on a small number of freelance engagements alongside my regular work — greenfield builds, rescue missions, and everything in between.

Project-Based Build

A complete backend, end to end — schema design, APIs, infrastructure, deployment, and documentation. Fixed scope, fixed quote.

Monthly Retainer

Reserved hours every month for ongoing feature work, performance tuning, and upgrades. Like having a senior engineer on speed dial.

Audit & Advisory

An independent review of your architecture, scaling bottlenecks, or security posture — delivered as a prioritized, actionable report.

01

Discovery

A free intro call to map your problem, constraints, and success criteria. You'll get honest feedback even if we don't end up working together.

02

Proposal

A written scope with milestones, timeline, and a fixed price. No hourly meter running in the background.

03

Build

Weekly progress shipped to a staging environment you can click around in. Async updates, no surprise invoices.

04

Handover

Documentation, infrastructure access, and a walkthrough session. When I leave, the system stays yours.

  • Professional code only. Three years of production systems behind every decision. No learning on your dime.
  • Boring technology, exciting uptime. I pick proven tools over trends, so your system outlives the hype cycle.
  • You own everything. Code, infrastructure, docs. Full handover by default. No lock-in, ever.
  • Straight talk. If I'm not the right fit for the job, I'll tell you early and point you to someone who is.
