// the problem

Building a company without a technical co-founder.

01

You're making technical decisions without technical expertise

One wrong architecture call can cost you months and hundreds of thousands

02

Investors are asking technical questions you can't answer

Due diligence falls apart when no one can speak to the tech

03

Your platform handles sensitive data and you're not sure if it's compliant

HIPAA, ISO 27001, and NHS Digital standards aren't optional. One audit failure can shut you down.

04

Your dev team builds features but you can't see the big picture

No one is connecting your technology to your business strategy

How I can help

Technical leadership without the full-time salary. I sit in on board meetings, manage your dev team, and make sure your tech strategy actually matches your business goals.

These capabilities also apply to ISO 27001 and security architecture work.

// why me

I've shipped production systems in Go, TypeScript, Python, and React. Not slides about them.

Georgia Tech CS grad and CNCF maintainer with a decade of hands-on engineering across startups and enterprises.

I translate architecture diagrams into board-ready language. And back again.

You get someone who bridges the gap between your engineers and your investors. No lost-in-translation moments.

I write code, review PRs, and pair with your engineers. Not just strategy decks.

I join standups, get into the details, and stay accountable. When I say something will work, it's because I've built it before.

I'm not an agency. I'm a senior engineer who embeds with your team and treats your product like it's my own.

No layers of account managers. You work directly with me.
