Architecture Review
Evaluate the current Rails system, identify operational and design bottlenecks, and produce a pragmatic improvement roadmap.
Service
SaaS Architecture Consultant
Architecture support for SaaS products that need to scale without losing delivery speed or system clarity.
Scaling & Reliability
Improve request throughput, background job flows, data access patterns, and failure recovery in production systems.
Delivery-Safe Refactoring
Reduce technical debt incrementally while protecting active delivery commitments and team productivity.
Technical Leadership
Support teams with standards, reviews, decision framing, and stakeholder communication during high-pressure phases.
How I work
I typically start with a focused review of the codebase, product constraints, and current delivery priorities. From there, I help teams choose a sequence of improvements that increases reliability and maintainability while keeping momentum.
This is especially useful for mature Rails codebases where the right answer is usually disciplined incremental change, not a rewrite.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help with architecture without replacing our current team?
Yes. I typically work alongside existing engineers and leaders to improve architecture, reliability, and decision quality while keeping the team in control of delivery.
Do you focus only on greenfield architecture?
No. A major focus is improving mature Rails codebases where scaling and maintainability issues already exist. I prioritize incremental improvements over rewrites.
What do teams usually get from an architecture engagement?
A clearer technical roadmap, prioritized improvements, better tradeoff decisions, and practical changes that support both reliability and delivery speed.
