Architecture, Reliability & Cost

For codebases and AWS bills that got away from you. Fix technical debt, improve reliability, cut costs.

The Problems I Fix

Tech Debt Crushing Velocity

Simple changes take weeks. Your team spends more time working around problems than building features.

Production Fires Every Week

Weekend outages. 3am pages. Customer escalations. No time to fix root causes because you're always firefighting.

Cloud Costs Out of Control

Your AWS bill keeps growing but nobody knows why. Some of it is likely waste.

Can't Scale Without Rewriting

Your architecture worked for MVP but won't scale. The team wants to rewrite everything.

What I Do

Technical Debt Audit

I audit your codebase and systems to identify what's actually slowing you down. Prioritized cleanup roadmap—what to fix first and why.

  • •Code quality and maintainability assessment
  • •Architecture bottleneck identification
  • •Prioritized technical debt backlog

Infrastructure Cost

I find the waste and cut it, and we measure cost per customer before and after.

  • •Cloud cost analysis and cuts
  • •Resource rightsizing and autoscaling
  • •Reserved instance and savings plan strategy

Architecture Review & Modernization

Modernization that doesn't require a risky complete rewrite. Incremental improvements I carry through.

  • •System architecture assessment
  • •Migration strategy for legacy systems
  • •Microservices vs monolith decisions

System Reliability & Performance

Stop the 3am pages. Build systems that don't break. Performance improvements that last.

  • •Performance profiling and fixes
  • •Monitoring and alerting setup
  • •Incident response process development

What Changes

We baseline your own numbers first and measure the change from there. No fixed promises.

Business value

More of the roadmap ships. Revenue features reach customers sooner. Cloud cost goes down.

Measured by: % of roadmap delivered, cycle time, cost per customer

Team stability

Clear roles and owners. Less firefighting. Fewer people leave.

Measured by: KTLO %, regretted attrition, survey scores

Product stability

Fewer incidents and bugs. Faster recovery.

Measured by: Incidents per month, time to recover, bugs found by customers

Fix Your Infrastructure

The first 30 days find your biggest technical debt and cost issues, and I start on the first one. Every engagement starts with a free Lite assessment: a short questionnaire, a one-page readout, and a 30-minute readout call.
