Let’s talk about your project

My Core Principles

My work is guided by a few key principles that ensure every project becomes not just a technical, but also a business success.

Results Over Implementation

Anyone can write code. My job is to deliver business outcomes. I stay laser-focused on the ‘why’ behind your project to make sure we’re solving the right problem. Your success is measured by market impact and ROI, not lines of code.

Pragmatism Over Dogma

The tech world is full of trends and dogmas. My loyalty is to your project’s success, not a specific framework. Whether it’s a lightweight solution for a restricted server or a complex, scalable architecture for a critical app, I choose the right tool for the job to deliver performance, cost-efficiency, and long-term value.

Partnership Over Transaction

I don’t see myself as a temporary developer, but as your technical partner. That means taking ownership of results, communicating proactively, and thinking several steps ahead to anticipate challenges. When you work with me, you don’t just get a pair of hands, you get a partner invested in your success.

Ways We Can Work Together

Every business has different needs. Here are the most common ways I collaborate with clients:

Full Product Development

You have a vision for a digital product, I take care of the full technical implementation, from first concept to launch.

Example Chronoscout, full B2B SaaS platform delivered in 6 months.

Technical Partnerships

Need a seasoned senior developer for 3–12 months? I can integrate seamlessly into your team or work independently on your most critical projects.

Ideal for Scale-ups, established companies, or temporary team reinforcement.

Strategic Consulting

Need technical expertise for architecture decisions, code reviews, or project recovery? I analyze your situation and deliver actionable solutions.

Ideal for Startups before their first tech hire, investors doing due diligence, or companies with struggling projects.

My Availability

Currently available for new projects starting November 2025.

Let’s Work Together!

Whether you want to build a full product, need an experienced developer to join your team, or require technical expertise, I’m ready to hear about your challenge.

About Me

My career began in the fast-paced world of digital agencies, where I learned to deliver high-quality work under tight deadlines. From there, I moved into a dedicated product role as a frontend developer at Eventfrog, diving deep into the complexity of building and maintaining a large, user-focused application.

That experience became the foundation for the story that truly defines me: a decade-long mission to build a successful, self-funded startup alongside my professional career.

That journey was a hands-on masterclass in business, strategy, and full-stack development. Building a wide range of my own products taught me to be resourceful, efficient, and relentlessly focused on what matters most, delivering real value. Those lessons are embedded in every line of code I write and culminated in my latest product, Chronoscout.

When you work with me, you get a partner who combines the discipline of an experienced professional with the creative, problem-solving mindset of a founder. If that’s the kind of energy your project needs, I’d love to hear from you.

Currently Available

After successfully launching Chronoscout, I’m taking on new projects starting November 2025, from complete product builds and long-term partnerships to strategic consulting. If you’re looking for a seasoned technical partner who delivers real solutions, not just code, let’s talk.
