Services
I help founders and lean teams turn fuzzy technical goals into shipped backend systems, Go services, AI workflows, and maintainable product infrastructure. The work is project-based: clear scope, direct senior execution, and practical technical leadership while we build.
01
Design, build, and improve APIs, services, integrations, data flows, internal platforms, and Go codebases with a bias toward systems the team can keep operating after launch.
Best for
Teams that need senior implementation for backend-heavy product work, Go adoption, modernization, or infrastructure around a real business workflow.
02
Turn product goals into architecture choices, tradeoffs, delivery plans, and implementation steps. I stay close to the code, so leadership does not become detached from what actually ships.
Best for
Founders, technical founders, and lean teams that need a senior engineer who can own ambiguity without adding full-time management overhead.
03
Use AI for faster prototyping, architectural exploration, implementation spikes, and decision support while keeping a human engineer responsible for the shape and quality of the system.
Best for
Teams that want AI leverage without losing the ability to understand, maintain, and confidently change what ships.
Throwaway software is useful when it helps explore. It becomes expensive when nobody understands what the AI produced.

Start with the business pressure
Before choosing tools or architecture, I map the product goal, user workflow, operational constraint, and delivery risk. That keeps the software tied to the reason it needs to exist.
Explore before committing
AI is useful for quickly comparing approaches, shaping prototypes, and testing assumptions. The output is treated as material to evaluate, not something to accept blindly.
Ship the smallest durable version
The goal is not more lines of code. It is the smallest version that solves the current problem while leaving the system understandable, changeable, and ready for the next phase.
Keep ownership close to the code
You get technical leadership and implementation from the same person, which means fewer handoffs, clearer tradeoffs, and software decisions grounded in the actual codebase.
Focused project work
Backend systems, Go consulting, AI-assisted product experiments, internal tools, integrations, automation, technical discovery, and codebase modernization.
Founders and product teams
A strong fit when a founder, technical founder, agency, or product team needs senior engineering judgment and hands-on delivery without turning the project into a large agency process.
I am a self-taught software engineer with a master's degree in finance and international business. That combination shapes how I work: technical decisions are treated as product and business tradeoffs, not abstract engineering preferences.
The work page includes client projects for Everphone, Kuatro Group, Fox Corporation, Candy.io, and ChatSheet AI, ranging from internal search and marketplace search to backend infrastructure, ML data workflows, media contextualization, and vector-based context search.
