Avoid expensive tech mistakes before they happen
I work with non-technical B2B founders to design scalable, production-ready systems — without overengineering or burning capital on the wrong decisions.
15+ years building backend systems for scale | Trusted by B2B startups across Europe
Most founders...
Make predictable, expensive mistakes that could have been avoided with the right technical guidance from day one.
Choose the wrong tech stack
End up locked into technology that can't scale with your business needs.
Overbuild too early
Burn capital on unnecessary complexity before validating product-market fit.
Hire without technical direction
Waste time and money on developers building the wrong thing, the wrong way.
Burn capital on complexity
Pay for microservices, Kubernetes, and infrastructure you don't actually need.
Instead, you get...
Senior technical leadership that keeps you focused, capital-efficient, and building the right thing.
CTO-level technical decisions from day one
Get the benefit of 10+ years of backend and distributed systems experience without the full-time cost.
Architecture designed for real-world scale
Build systems that can grow with you — not too simple, not over-engineered.
AI-native system design where it adds value
Leverage modern AI capabilities pragmatically, not as a buzzword.
Pragmatic approach — not unnecessary microservices
Start with what you need now, with a clear path to scale when you're ready.
