- →Established platform team practices and ownership model
Results
- ✓3x improvement in deployment frequency
- ✓Reduced p99 latency from 2s to 200ms
- ✓Team shipping features again within 2 months
Challenge
Needed to build compliant transaction processing system from scratch under tight regulatory timeline.

How I Work
Discovery Call
15-minute conversation to understand your situation, challenges, and goals. No pitch, just listening.
Scope & Proposal
Clear written proposal with timeline, deliverables, and pricing. You know exactly what you're getting.
Execute & Deliver
I do the work. Regular async updates, no meetings unless truly needed. You get results, not status reports.
Working Principles
Bias for action
I'd rather ship and iterate than debate endlessly. Progress over perfection.
Async-first
Written communication, documented decisions. Meetings are for collaboration, not status updates.
No bullshit
Direct feedback, honest estimates. I'll tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear.
