SERVICES / FRACTIONAL ENGINEERING
Ship the roadmap with staff-level engineering, without the full-time hire.
Fractional product engineering across mobile (Android) and web (Next.js, TypeScript, Postgres), embedded in your team's actual workflow: same repo, same PR process, same standups.
01
WHO THIS IS FOR
- Startups that have a roadmap and not enough senior engineering capacity to move it.
- Teams whose current engineers are strong but need a second senior voice on architecture and code review.
- Founders who need someone who can own a feature end-to-end (schema through UI through deploy) without heavy onboarding.
02
WHAT'S INCLUDED
- Full-stack feature delivery: Next.js App Router, React 19, TypeScript (strict mode), Tailwind, Drizzle ORM against Postgres.
- Native Android work — features, refactors, or a second senior set of eyes on an existing app. Mobile is where I started, and it's still the platform I know deepest.
- Schema design and migrations, done through a source-of-truth ORM schema rather than hand-edited SQL, so changes stay reviewable and reversible.
- Background job design for anything that shouldn't run inline in a request (sync jobs, batch processing, scheduled work) using a durable Postgres-backed queue.
- Code review and architecture input on your existing team's PRs, not just new code.
- Build, lint, and typecheck discipline wired into CI so regressions get caught before merge, not after deploy.
- Working directly in your repo and your PR workflow — no separate "consultant branch" that has to be reconciled later.
03
ENGAGEMENT SHAPES
- Assessment (1–2 weeks, fixed fee): codebase and architecture review, prioritized findings, a scoped plan for what comes next. Good first step if you're not sure what the actual bottleneck is.
- Sprint (2–6 weeks, fixed scope): a defined feature or migration, shipped to a specific deliverable — e.g., "replace the legacy REST layer with typed server actions" or "add multi-workspace support to the data model."
- Retainer (ongoing, set days/month): continuous fractional capacity — the closest analog to a senior hire, without the hire.

FAQ
Q1How is this different from hiring a contractor off a marketplace?
You're always talking to the person doing the work. There's no rotating bench and no project manager relaying messages to an engineer you never meet. Scope and priorities are set directly with you.
Q2Can you work inside our existing team's process (standups, sprint planning, our PR conventions)?
Yes, and for retainer engagements that's the default. The goal is to fit your team's cadence, not import a new one.
Q3What if the codebase isn't Next.js/TypeScript?
My background is mobile — Android is the platform I know deepest — and my main web stack is React/Next.js, TypeScript, and Postgres. The underlying skills (schema design, API design, background job architecture, CI/CD) transfer beyond those. Tell me what you're on during the scoping call and I'll be straight about fit.
