What I do
Platform Health Check
I dig into your AWS, GCP, EKS, and Terraform setup and give you a straight-up report: what's working, what's not, and what to fix first.
Cost + Scaling
Track down what's actually driving your bill — compute waste, node strategy, autoscaling — and fix it.
Terraform Cleanup
Refactor so your IaC is maintainable: clearer structure, safer workflows, less "hold your breath" on every apply.
Karpenter + Node Strategy
Get node provisioning and consolidation that behaves predictably and doesn't blow the budget.
Architecture Review
Before you lock in big decisions — networking, cluster layout, guardrails — I'll sanity-check the plan.
Fractional Platform Advisor
A few hours a week of senior guidance for your CTO or platform lead. No hiring required.
Agentic Development
Adopt AI-assisted and agentic workflows — Cursor, Copilot, custom tooling — so your team ships faster without the chaos.
How it works
1. Quick intro
15 min. What's going on, what you're hoping for. If it's not a fit, I'll say so.
2. I take a look
Usually read-only access — billing, EKS, your IaC repos. Low friction.
3. You get a plan
Quick wins first, then medium fixes, then structural work. Prioritized.
4. We fix it
I implement or pair with your team. Async, time-boxed. No endless retainer.
If you're about to hire a DevOps/Platform/SRE because things are a mess — this is often a faster way to get stable first.
