Focused engagements. Concrete deliverables. Systems built to stay up.
System Architecture & Technical Strategy
Fixed-Scope Engagement — 2-Week Audit + Written Recommendations
Architecture reviews, greenfield system design, and modernization roadmaps for teams that need an outside eye before committing to a direction. You get a written deliverable: a clear assessment of what you have, what's fragile, and a prioritized path forward — with trade-offs explained, not glossed over.
Useful before a major platform build, when scaling is becoming painful, or when you've inherited a system and need to understand it before changing it.
Enterprise Platform Development
Project-Based or Retainer
Backend services, Azure integrations, and Dynamics 365 / Power Platform builds and customizations. This is the work of taking requirements that are vague on paper and making them real in production: designing data models, wiring up integrations, handling edge cases, and shipping something the business can rely on daily.
I've done this at scale on a government platform serving hundreds of users at 99.9% uptime. I'm comfortable with the full lifecycle, not just the interesting parts.
AI Integration Architecture
Project-Based
Production AI integrations using LLM APIs (Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, and others), including multi-provider abstraction layers, per-subsystem rate limiting, caching, fallback chains, and RAG patterns. Not chatbot wrappers — production-grade AI features built to stay up under real load, without vendor lock-in.
If you need AI features that are observable, resilient, and hot-swappable across model providers without changing application code, this is the engagement. The architecture pattern is the same whether you're building for a game, an enterprise app, or a government system.
CI/CD & DevOps Modernization
Project-Based
Pipeline design, build automation, and deployment modernization using Azure DevOps. I've cut deployment time by 94% — from 4 hours to 15 minutes — on a mission-critical government system, eliminating manual steps that were a source of human error and release anxiety.
If your team dreads deploys, ships less often than it should, or is running manual steps that should be automated, this is a high-leverage engagement with measurable results.
Not sure which fits?
Most engagements start with a short scoping conversation. Reach out and describe what you're working on — I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit and what an engagement would look like.
