  • Scaling infrastructure for growth (10x-100x)
  • Multi-tenancy and data isolation
  • Usage-based pricing and metering
  • Integration ecosystem development

Common Challenges I Solve:

  • “Our platform can’t handle customer growth”
  • “We need to ship features faster without breaking things”
  • “Our technical debt is slowing us down”
  • “We need better security and compliance”
  • “We’re rebuilding instead of innovating”

Financial Services Firms

  • Real-time data processing and analytics
  • Secure transaction systems
  • Regulatory compliance (MiFID II, GDPR, PCI-DSS)
  • High-availability and disaster recovery
  • Audit logging and compliance reporting

Common Challenges I Solve:

  • “We need to modernize our trading platform”
  • “Regulatory requirements are slowing development”
  • “We can’t integrate with modern fintech APIs”
  • “Our systems don’t scale for market volatility”
  • “We need better security without sacrificing performance”

Development Approach

1. Discovery & Planning (Week 1-2)

  • Requirements gathering and validation
  • Technical architecture design
  • Technology stack selection
  • Timeline and resource planning
  • Risk assessment and mitigation

2. Iterative Development (Agile/Scrum)

  • 2-week sprint cycles
  • Continuous integration and testing
  • Regular demos and stakeholder feedback
  • Incremental feature delivery
  • Technical documentation

3. Quality Assurance

  • Automated testing (unit, integration, e2e)
  • Code review and pair programming
  • Security scanning and vulnerability assessment
  • Performance testing and optimization
  • User acceptance testing (UAT)

4. Deployment & Handoff

  • Production deployment with monitoring
  • Documentation and knowledge transfer
  • Team training and onboarding
  • Post-launch support and optimization
  • Maintenance planning
