I know what resilient architecture
and high-bar teams look like
under pressure.
I help founders scale them,
and investors verify them.
System design pressure-tests and written design docs. A second pair of senior eyes on the load-bearing choices before they harden into legacy.
Designing interview loops, calibrating bars, sitting in on senior+ screens. Pre-IC and pre-staff candidates handled the same way Stripe and Amazon do it.
For VCs and angels: a written technical screen on prospective investments. Codebase, infra, team velocity, what's load-bearing, what's a house of cards.
From an engineer currently shipping AI products at Feather: where to invest, where the moats are, and where the hype is loudest.
High-level needs. Where I can help. We agree on expectations, cadence and rate.
You book calls based on agreed cadence and when something is keeping you up at night.
I take care of doc reviews and design writing on my own time. You get artifacts, not meetings.
