Every detail matters.
I architect and build distributed systems from the ground up — multi-tenant platforms, billing infrastructure, queue-driven provisioning, and the developer tooling that keeps teams moving. 20+ years in the hosting stack, building and maintaining platforms that served hundreds of thousands of users and kept their sites online. From git init to production.
// EXPERTISE
Web Hosting Infra
Designed and built billing systems, control panels, and provisioning automation from the ground up — not inherited, architected.
SaaS Platforms
Multi-tenant architecture, subscription billing, payment processing, and the state machines that tie it all together.
API Design
Designing APIs that other developers actually want to integrate with. Auth, webhooks, and service orchestration.
WordPress at Scale
WP-CLI tooling, automated provisioning, and managed WordPress infrastructure. The platform layer, not the theme layer.
AI-Augmented Dev
AI tools accelerate the work — but every line is reviewed, tested, and held to the same bar. Also: rescuing codebases where AI was used without engineering discipline.
Testing & Quality
RSpec, PestPHP, Playwright, static analysis. Testing isn't a phase — it's how the work gets done. New devs shipping production code within a day.
