Capabilities
What I build and lead
Fractional CTO leadership
Engineering roadmap, hiring strategy, and technical governance for teams that need senior leadership without a full time executive hire.
- Technical roadmap and milestone planning
- Engineering hiring and team mentorship
- Code review standards and governance
- Board and investor technical communications
AI orchestration and LLM systems
Production grade retrieval augmented generation, agentic workflows, and inference optimization that actually ship to users.
- RAG pipeline architecture and deployment
- Agentic workflow design and orchestration
- Model selection, fine tuning, and cost optimization
- Evaluation frameworks and monitoring
High throughput web and mobile
Low latency React, Next.js, and Flutter/Kotlin architectures built for millions of concurrent users and sub-second response times.
- Next.js and React architecture at scale
- Flutter and Kotlin native mobile systems
- API design for high concurrency
- Performance profiling and optimization
Cloud infrastructure and DevOps
AWS, Kubernetes, and Docker orchestration with automated CI/CD, security hardening, and cost governance.
- AWS infrastructure design and optimization
- Kubernetes cluster architecture
- CI/CD pipeline automation
- Security audit and compliance hardening
Systems
Architecture across industries
Fintech
Challenge
A Series A payments platform needed to process 12,000+ transactions per second with PCI DSS compliance and sub-200ms settlement latency.
Solution
Designed a distributed event driven architecture using Kubernetes autoscaling, Redis caching, and PostgreSQL partitioning. Integrated real time fraud detection using a custom ML scoring pipeline.
Process
Engineering approach
A structured framework to translate complex requirements into robust, maintainable systems.
Architecture diagnosis
Deep code and cloud review to identify bottlenecks, security gaps, and scaling risks in your current system.
Technical blueprint
Scalable milestone plan with clear architecture decisions, technology selection, and resource requirements.
Hands on execution
Direct architecture delivery with team mentorship, code review, and knowledge transfer at every stage.
Scale hardening
Production resilience testing, security audit, performance optimization, and structured handover documentation.
