Problems I solve for teams building web platforms
Sound
familiar?
What teams tell me before a web build.
“Your customers need a portal, and email plus spreadsheets isn’t cutting it.”
Customers want self-serve access, and your team wants its time back.
“You’re building a marketplace or SaaS and need it architected properly.”
Early shortcuts in data models and payments get expensive later.
“You’ve had too many handoffs between designers, developers and agencies.”
You need one person accountable for the whole stack.

What I build for your platform
Web apps
built to scale.
From internal dashboards to customer-facing platforms.
Dashboards
Real-time dashboards and reporting for operators and leadership.
Customer portals
Secure portals for accounts, orders, documents and self-serve support.
Marketplaces
Two-sided platforms with listings, payments, messaging and admin tools.
SaaS platforms
Multi-user web products with roles, billing and integrations.
Direct collaboration
You work with
the builder.
No agency handoff. Speak directly with the developer building your product.
I own the whole stack — architecture, APIs, frontend, integrations and deployment — so one person is accountable for how the platform performs.
6 years across the full stack — mobile (iOS/Android), web, backend, cloud and AI — including deploying and maintaining production apps and databases for 1.1M+ active users. That means fewer handoffs, faster decisions and one person accountable for the result.
How it works
Clear from
day one.
Start with the business goal, define the right build, then move through launch without unnecessary complexity.
Strategy
Define the users, core workflows and what the first release needs to do.
Architecture
Design the data model, APIs and infrastructure for the traffic you expect.
Build
Ship working features in stages, with direct communication throughout.
Launch
Deploy to production, monitor performance and keep iterating.
Pricing
$10K–$40K
Typical web application projects run $10K–$40K. The range depends on user roles, real-time requirements, payments and integrations. Starting with one core workflow gets a working platform live sooner and keeps the first phase focused.

- Payments, billing or marketplace logic
- Many user roles and permissions

FAQ
Straight
answers.
The questions people ask before booking a call.
How long does a typical project take?
It depends on scope and integrations. Most platforms launch with a focused first release, then grow in phases. You get a timeline after the strategy call, tied to a defined feature list.
How fast can we start?
Quickly. Book a strategy call and we can usually talk within a few days. If we’re a fit, you get a written scope and estimate shortly after, and work starts as soon as you approve it — no long sales process.
Can you build something that handles high traffic?
Yes. As a senior full-stack developer on a high-traffic consumer platform, I built features, shipped deployments and maintained the production apps and database through 2M+ sign-ups, 1.1M+ active users and 7M+ entries. The same architecture and performance thinking goes into every platform I build.
Can you take over an existing web app?
Often, yes. I start by reviewing the current code and architecture, then recommend whether to improve, refactor or rebuild specific parts.
Do I own the code?
Yes. You own the code and the repository, and accounts are set up in your name. You are never locked in to working with me.
How do we work together day to day?
You work directly with me — no account manager and no agency handoff. You get regular progress updates, working builds to review, and quick answers when decisions come up.
What if I only need a small feature, not a full platform?
That’s fine — not every project is a full build. A single feature, an integration, a fix or a review of existing code can be scoped and quoted on its own. The strategy call is free either way, so it costs nothing to ask.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes. I’m happy to sign your NDA before you share details — send it over before or after booking. Your idea and information are kept confidential either way.
What does something like this cost?
Typical web application projects run $10K–$40K. Real-time features, payments, user roles and integrations are the biggest drivers. You get a clear estimate after the strategy call.
