Fig. 01b  /  Platform & infrastructure

The plumbing beneath the product.

Services, data pipelines, deploys, and the infrastructure that keeps them up. I build the backend so the next feature is cheap to add and the 2am page never comes — and I hand it over as code your team can reason about.

What's included

Scope of the practice
AService architecture Internal services split along real domain boundaries, not accidental ones — so teams and code can grow without stepping on each other.
BCI/CD & deploys Pipelines, preview environments, and rollbacks that make shipping reversible. Deploying should be the boring part of the day.
CData pipelines Ingestion, transforms, and stores sized to the data rather than the hype — with backfills and retries that survive bad days.
DInfrastructure as code Every environment defined in code and stood up by one command. No click-ops, no snowflake servers, nothing that lives only in one person’s head.
EScaling & cost Capacity and spend tuned to actual load, with headroom you can see and a bill you can explain to finance.

Stack we reach for

TypeScript and Python services; Postgres or D1 for data, R2 and object storage for the rest; Queues and Durable Objects where work belongs off the request path. Deployed by one infrastructure-as-code command, so every environment is reproducible from the repo.

Representative work

Doota Mail — a multi-Worker platform on Cloudflare

D1, R2, KV, Queues, Durable Objects and Email Routing in one deploy, stood up by a single infrastructure-as-code command in CI. The platform story lives with the case study.

I take on a small number of projects at a time.

Tell me what you're building and where it hurts. I'll say honestly whether I'm the right person for it.
