Services
I take on a small number of engagements at a time: a fixed-scope build, an audit, or an ongoing retainer. You work directly with the person who writes the code and runs it in production.
Kubernetes & GitOps platforms
A deploy pipeline your team trusts: every change through Git, a preview environment per pull request, and gates that catch mistakes before production does.
What you get
- K3s or managed Kubernetes with Flux GitOps
- Review apps per pull request, dev/QA/prod promotion
- Postgres with backups, TLS, sealed secrets
- Prometheus, Grafana, logs and alerting
Typical engagement
Fixed-scope build or audit of an existing cluster, then optional ongoing support.

Django & Python web apps
Production web apps with tests, migrations that are checked in CI, and privacy and multi-tenancy designed in from the start, not bolted on.
What you get
- Django apps from MVP to multi-tenant SaaS
- Auth, billing hooks, admin back office
- Test suites that guard the rules that matter
- Containerised, deployed and monitored
Typical engagement
Fixed-scope build, or a retainer to extend and maintain an existing app.

Data pipelines & scraping
Collectors that keep working when sources change: scheduled jobs, validation gates, replayable failures and clean data in Postgres or your warehouse.
What you get
- Scrapers for HTML, PDF, CSV and hostile sites
- Validation, de-duplication and failure snapshots
- APIs, exports and dashboards on top
- Alerting when a source breaks
Typical engagement
Fixed-scope pipeline build, plus optional monitoring and repair.

AI & LLM integration
LLM features that earn their place: enrichment and extraction with confidence scores, agent workflows with a human review step, and costs you can predict.
What you get
- LLM enrichment and extraction pipelines
- Agent workflows that open PRs, not surprises
- Evaluation against real data before rollout
- Rate limits, retries and cost controls
Typical engagement
Short discovery to find the right use case, then a fixed-scope build.
