Plan & architecture
A written scope, data model and milestone plan, agreed before any code is written.
Service · SaaS, web apps & MVPs
I build SaaS products and web applications end to end: the product plan, a Next.js frontend, the Node.js API and PostgreSQL schema, auth and billing, and the deployment. Small enough to ship in weeks, built so it doesn't need rewriting when customers arrive.
01 — The problem
A first version has two ways to fail. It can be a demo: quick to build, but the first real customer exposes missing tenancy, roles that leak data, or billing that breaks on a retried webhook. Or it can be a platform: so much foundation that it never launches.
I scope the first version to the one workflow that proves the product, and build the parts that are expensive to retrofit properly from day one: tenant isolation, authorization, billing state and background jobs. Everything else waits until users ask for it.
02 — What you get
A written scope, data model and milestone plan, agreed before any code is written.
A fast, accessible Next.js and React frontend, server-rendered where it matters for SEO.
A Node.js API on PostgreSQL with sign-in, organizations and role-based access.
Subscriptions and webhooks with Stripe, Razorpay or Paddle, plus email, Slack and third-party APIs.
Android and iOS apps on the same backend, when the product needs one.
Production on AWS or Vercel with CI/CD and monitoring, the code in your repository, and a runbook.
03 — Process
We pick the single workflow that proves the product and cut everything that doesn't serve it.
Auth, tenancy, roles and billing come first, with tests, because they're the parts that hurt to change later.
A working build on a staging URL every week, with a demo and a short written update.
Production deployment, monitoring and a walkthrough, so your team can run and extend it.
04 — Proof
My own product, built end to end as its sole engineer: nightly multi-account cost ingestion, spike detection, Claude-written explanations, Slack alerts and Stripe billing.

06 — FAQ
Most engagements run 4–8 weeks. The written plan fixes the scope before work starts, so the timeline is agreed rather than guessed.
It depends on scope, so you get a quote with the written plan, before any work starts and before you commit to anything.
Yes. I can extend a Next.js or Node.js application, or start with a review of what's there and what to fix first.
One language across the stack, server rendering for pages that need to rank, and a large hiring pool, so your next engineer can pick it up. If your team already runs something else, we talk about it in the plan.

I take on a small number of projects at a time, from full product builds to deployment, performance and automation work: scoped, shipped, and handed over clean.
