About

I am a senior software engineer and team lead with 20+ years delivering internal systems in regulated environments. I focus on shipping reliable increments, reducing support load, and making systems easier to operate.

  • Hands-on: architecture, coding, reviews, releases, and support
  • Business-first: clear scope, fast feedback, measurable outcomes
  • Low overhead: independent delivery with transparent updates

Typical engagement

  • Start with a low-risk scope (1-2 weeks)
  • Weekly cadence: plan, ship, validate, document
  • Option for ongoing part-time support after first delivery

If your environment is complex (compliance, multiple systems, legacy code), that is my comfort zone.
