How I work

A few clients at a time
I take on a small number of clients so I can fully understand the domain and deliver a quality solution.
Production-grade is the baseline
Security, monitoring, tests, and documentation are not extras — they are what production-ready means. Ten years across SAP, Teads, and medtech set that bar.
AI-augmented, standards unchanged
Coding assistants and LLM workflows speed up prototyping, testing, and review. They do not lower the bar but help me deliver high quality solutions faster.
Built to hand off
I write code the next developer picks up without a walkthrough, and I leave you the context to run and extend it long after the engagement ends.
