Before you book
What happens on the first call?
You describe what's happening: the system, the symptom, what it's costing you, and what
the team has already tried. I ask questions. Thirty minutes, and we both find out whether
I'm useful here.
Do you only work with healthcare and biotech?
No. That's where a lot of the recent work has been, and it's why I'm comfortable with
auditability, access control, and tenant isolation. The same problems show up in any
data-heavy platform.
Do you take full-time roles?
Yes. I'm open to senior backend and platform roles, and to long-term contracts through
Deel or a direct B2B agreement.
