Services

Software and data engineering,
delivered direct.

Database upgrades, data migrations, pipelines, dashboards, application modernization. Delivered by a senior engineer who scopes the work, owns the outcome, and signs the deliverable — on time, on budget, and without the overhead of a large firm. One accountable point of contact from first scope to final hand-off.

Ongoing

Managed Services

Month-to-month support for the systems you depend on, scoped weekly. Best when requirements sharpen as work proceeds, or when you need senior capacity without a full-time hire.

—Database administration, tuning, and cost optimization
—Data pipeline monitoring and maintenance
—Ongoing reporting and analytics support
—Application maintenance and incremental improvements

Time-and-materials, retainer-style. Scoped weekly, billed for what you use.

Fixed scope

Project & Consulting

A well-defined deliverable, a fixed price, a fixed timeline. Best when the target is known and you want it built right the first time.

—Database upgrades and migrations
—ETL and data-pipeline builds (batch and real-time)
—Reporting dashboards and BI
—Data cleanup, integration, and modernization
—Architecture and design advisory

Fixed-bid project or short advisory engagement. Clear acceptance criteria, no open-ended billing.

Why a sole proprietor

The person you hire is the person who owns the result. No prime and sub chain, no resource substitution mid-project, no senior architect on the proposal who vanishes after kickoff. Your budget buys delivery, not management overhead — every dollar goes to the result, not to the layers above it.

That keeps engagements fast and the line of accountability short: one accountable principal, start to finish, who answers for the result.
