▍ Solutions
Engagement models range from one-off audits to multi-year fractional CTO retainers. Most projects start with a 30-minute call and a written scope.
Senior technology leadership on demand — strategy, architecture, hiring and delivery oversight without the full-time overhead.
Embedded with founders and leadership teams to set technical direction, manage vendors and engineering teams, and translate business goals into a shippable roadmap.
Align product investment, technical choices and business outcomes — before a single line of code is written.
Workshops, discovery and written strategy artefacts: target architecture, build-vs-buy calls, MVP scoping, and budget-aligned delivery plans.
Hands-on Laravel, Livewire, Alpine and Tailwind build work — from greenfield SaaS to high-traffic e-commerce.
I still write the code. New products, complex features, payments, integrations and APIs — all on the TALL stack, all tested, all deployable on day one.
Independent reviews of codebases, architecture, security posture and team practices — with a prioritised action list.
For investors, acquirers or boards who need an honest read on what they're inheriting. Delivered as a written report with severity-ranked recommendations.
Design and build the platforms, APIs and integrations that other teams build their products on top of.
Multi-tenant SaaS architectures, versioned APIs, webhooks, billing and identity — designed for the lifespan and scale your business actually needs.
Lift the standard of existing engineering teams — code review, pairing, hiring help and senior-level mentorship.
Recurring engagement model: regular pairing sessions, written code reviews, hiring panels and process design with your existing engineers.
Deep experience in checkout, payments, billing, marketplaces and regulated financial flows.
Stripe, subscriptions, multi-currency, refunds, reconciliation and the edge cases that only show up at scale.
Pragmatic integration of OpenAI, Claude and tool-using agents into existing products — without the hype tax.
Working with teams to identify where LLMs actually move a metric, then shipping the integration on top of existing Laravel stacks.
Application security reviews, PII handling, data-privacy controls and compliance-framework alignment for products that hold sensitive data.
Threat modelling, dependency and SAST/DAST scanning (Aikido, OWASP ZAP, Burp Suite), authentication hardening, audit logging, encryption-at-rest, GDPR / Australian Privacy Principles / SOC 2 readiness, and the day-to-day engineering practices that keep it that way.
