For engineering teams

Senior engineering capacity from one accountable owner, shipped inside your repo.

Senior engineering capacity without the cost and lag of a full-time hire. Embedded in your release flow, delivered against an agreed scope and priced by outcome rather than hours.

When teams bring me in

  • You have a backlog of senior work and hiring cannot keep up.
  • You need a self-contained system or feature shipped inside your product, fast.
  • You want to trial embedded senior delivery before you scale headcount.
  • A senior engineer is leaving and there is a capacity gap to bridge.

How it works

Embedded delivery

I take a defined slice of work end to end, inside your repo, your review process, and your release flow. Scoped as an SOW with acceptance criteria and clean IP transfer, so it slots through procurement without friction.

Priced by outcome, not hours

You pay for the shipped result, not a timesheet. The deliverable and the date are what you buy, against a scope we set together. No bodyshop hourly meter.

A sprint entry point

Not ready for a standing engagement? Start with a fixed-scope Scalable MVP Sprint, a defined build delivered in four weeks, then continue on a Builder retainer if it is working.

Proof it ships

12+ years building at scale, HBO GO (8M users), Yahoo, Player FM, and recently Recall (Android plus a Rust domain layer). The Scalable MVP Sprint delivers a focused, fully scoped build inside four weeks. You get senior judgment and serious throughput from one accountable person.

Embedded engineering

How does one person deliver at this pace?

You get one accountable senior owner working focused against an agreed scope. We plan what is being built and in what order at the start of each cycle, so you always know what you are getting, and I ship against that plan inside your repo and release flow.

How do we contract this so it clears procurement?

An SOW with acceptance criteria and IP assignment is the cleanest path and the one I default to. I can also work under an MSA, or sub-contract through a staffing partner when your procurement requires it.

How do you fit into an existing team?

Inside your repo and release flow, on your conventions. I review PRs, ship production code, and leave the codebase and your engineers more capable, not dependent on me.
