One senior engineer. Fractional. For AI-era teams where shipping is slower and less reliable than expected.

I stabilize what's breaking, instrument what's invisible, and rebuild shipping speed without adding headcount.

§ 01 Who I help

Engineering leaders at Series A–C product companies seeing one or more of these:

  1. 01 Shipping features 1+ month behind schedule.
  2. 02 Silent failures in production. You hear about them from customers, not dashboards.
  3. 03 PR backlog you can't keep up with.
  4. 04 You're the bottleneck on code review, architecture, and hiring.
  5. 05 Leading-indicator alerts don't exist. Degradations become incidents before you see them coming.

§ 02 How I work

First call is an assessment: what's actually broken, where the leverage is, and whether it's worth my taking on.

Phase 01
Audit and Stabilize
Map the failure modes, triage the backlog, ship the most critical fixes.
Phase 02
Observability and Reliability
Instrument the critical path. Alert on the failures we found. Establish baseline metrics.
Phase 03
Velocity and Process
Lightweight code review process that doesn't route through one person. CI checks for the bug categories reaching production. Mentor existing senior ICs into ownership.

§ 03 Working mode

Just me. AI-augmented IC. Full stack from UI through backend, CI/CD and ops. Architecture decisions and shipped code in the same engagement, not routed through two roles.

§ 04 Not a fit if

30 minutes. No deck.
Tell me where shipping is slow. I'll tell you whether I can help.
