Seed → Series A • Founder advisory • Full-stack + growth systems

Founder-level strategy + build.

I help teams go from prototype → production: clean data, sane infra costs, reliable growth loops, and security posture you can defend.

I diagnose the constraint, design the system, and can implement it with you or ship it end‑to‑end.

For Seed to Series A founders building marketplaces, creator tools, SaaS, and token‑enabled products.

What you get
Clear plan → weekly execution → systems that hold up under growth
  • • Constraint diagnosis + focused next steps
  • • A shippable 30/60/90 plan (not a “strategy doc”)
  • • Product + engineering tradeoffs de-risked
  • • GTM systems (funnels, loops, instrumentation)
  • • Weekly accountability + fast unblocks
  • • Instrumentation so decisions aren’t vibes
Best fit if…

you’re moving fast, stakes are high, and you want an operator who can talk strategy, engineering, and shipping in the same sentence.

Startup stage
You’re scaling yourself. Let’s scale the system.
What it feels like

It’s real: usage, revenue, retention, or momentum. But it doesn’t feel stable or repeatable yet.

Where I help
  • Constraint diagnosis (product, GTM, execution, team, or infra)
  • Cost governance loop (drivers → budgets → fixes that stick)
  • Discovery + growth systems (events → ranking inputs → experiments)
Common traps I fix
  • Cost blowups without visibility (DB/egress/invocations)
  • Migration debt avoided until it becomes a fire
  • Shipping slows because ownership/process is unclear
Typical 30‑day outcomes
  • Constraint map + 30-day plan with top 3 levers
  • Cost drivers identified and controlled with budgets
  • Growth inputs instrumented (events → ranking/experiments)

Services

Operator-led advisory plus delivery. Start small, scale up if it’s working.

Paid Diagnostic (fixed-fee)
Fixed-fee • 5 to 10 days

A short engagement to de-risk the build and create a plan you can execute immediately.

  • System map + constraints
  • 30/60/90 plan + milestones
  • Cost drivers + quick wins
  • Security baseline + risk list
  • Delivery estimate ranges
Build-with-you (player/coach)
Weekly retainer • scoped milestones

You keep your team. I lead architecture and critical paths while your team ships with oversight.

  • Architecture + critical path implementation
  • Weekly plan, reviews, and unblock
  • Quality gates, instrumentation, and shipping cadence
Done-for-you (delivery)
Project-based • milestone pricing

I implement core components directly and ship milestones end to end.

  • Hands-on build (Next.js/TS, Postgres, infra)
  • Security hardening + operational readiness
  • Release playbooks, rollbacks, and handoff
Delivery options
Available as advisory-only or build plus ship. If scope needs extra hands, I can bring in vetted specialists for specific workstreams (design, backend, DevOps). I remain accountable for integration and quality.

Case studies

NDA‑friendly snapshots.

Refactor before launch
Stage: MVP → first customers • Product: commerce / ops
Constraint: Prototype backend was slowing shipping and creating reliability risk.
Intervention: Reshaped data model + APIs, added background jobs, and instrumented the hot paths.
Result: Faster shipping cadence + fewer production surprises (directional improvement).
Next.js • Postgres • queues/jobs • observability
Cost governance loop
Stage: some traction • Product: high-usage web app
Constraint: Infra spend rising without clear drivers.
Intervention: Identified cost levers, added budgets, tuned queries, and measured caching ROI.
Result: Predictable spend + clear scaling inflection points (directional improvement).
Postgres • caching • logging/metrics
Security hardening sprint
Stage: first customers • Surface: auth + admin + webhooks
Constraint: Growing surface area with increasing breach risk.
Intervention: Threat model by surface, tightened defaults, added rate limits + regression checks.
Result: Reduced attack surface + clearer incident response posture (directional).
Auth • webhooks • secure defaults • testing

Approach

Strategy isn’t a doc. It’s a repeatable loop that increases clarity and execution speed.

01
Diagnose

Find the actual constraint: market, offer, product, execution, or team.

Output: a constraint map + top 3 levers for the next 30 days.

Proof

Selected outcomes and experience. NDA‑friendly details available on request.

Revenue systems
Led initiatives that helped grow annual revenue from under $100K to $1M+ (systems + execution, not magic).
Meta / Quest
Worked in Meta’s marketing division on Quest / Quest 2; strong cross‑functional operator muscle.
15+ years building
Full‑stack delivery + marketing systems + ops instincts from real-world execution across many cycles.
