Contract + Team Audits
Quick, blunt assessments: are you being over-billed, under-delivered, or quietly accruing risk?
- Billing vs reality (hours, output, velocity)
- Cloud spend sanity check (waste, overprovisioning, “oops” costs)
- Architecture + codebase health snapshot
- Security posture basics (vulns, dependencies, secrets hygiene)
Modernization + Platform Rescue
When the stack is stuck and feature work is a tax. I focus on the shortest path back to control.
- .NET / C# rebuilds + migrations
- Legacy dependency cleanup + vulnerability remediation
- Containerization & environment parity
- Repeatable builds, predictable deployments
DevOps + Developer Experience
Make it hard to do the wrong thing: formatting, linting, CI gates, and fast feedback loops.
- Pipelines that enforce standards (not “hope”)
- Automated checks: formatting, analyzers, tests
- Release hygiene: slots, rollbacks, configs
- Observability: logs, traces, meaningful alerts
AI-Accelerated Engineering
AI as the ultimate peer programmer: wide knowledge, always available, brutally consistent.
- Faster root-cause analysis + remediation plans
- Refactor assistance with guardrails + tests
- Documentation + runbooks that match reality
- Automation scripts for “death by repetition” work
How I work
I’m not selling “hours.” I’m selling outcomes: clearer risk, lower burn, and a stack your team can actually maintain.
Typical engagements start with an audit → prioritized plan → targeted execution.
What you get
A clear assessment, a prioritized plan, and work that improves the system instead of adding more fragility.
Deliverables (examples)
- Audit report (risk, waste, tech debt hotspots)
- Migration plan (phased, testable, rollback-friendly)
- CI/CD improvements with concrete gates
- Cost/usage report with quick wins
- Engineering “rules of the road” (.editorconfig, analyzers, templates)
Rule #1: no heroics, no mystery meat.
If the system can’t be operated by a normal team after I’m gone, it’s a failure.
