I work with founders, product teams, and agencies who need senior development capacity without the overhead of hiring. Three things I do well, repeatedly.
Full-stack apps, MVPs, dashboards, and internal tools. Built to be maintained, not just demoed.
AdonisJS · Node · Vue · React · Postgres
Bespoke tools, integrations, scrapers, and scripts that replace manual processes - and keep working when nobody is watching.
TypeScript · Queues · APIs
Building AI features into existing products and workflows - RAG, agents, structured extraction, and assistants that earn their keep.
OpenAI · Anthropic · Embeddings · Tooling
Calm, honest, async-friendly. Same shape for every engagement.
A short call to understand the problem, the constraints, and what success looks like.
A written scope and a fixed price (or a retainer shape) within a few days.
I work in short loops with frequent demos. You see progress every week, not every milestone.
Documentation, deploys, and a tidy codebase. Optional ongoing retainer if you want one.
Same person, same standard. The shape that fits is the one we pick.
Fixed scope, fixed price. Best when the destination is clear and you want a clean delivery - MVPs, integrations, internal tools, AI features.
Ongoing capacity for agencies and product teams. Monthly hours, predictable availability, evolving scope.
Boring on purpose. Mature, well-understood tools that won't surprise the next person who has to maintain them.
Available for Auckland / New Zealand. Smaller scale, walk-in friendly. For these, drop me a note rather than starting a project brief.
Functional and prototype parts. Local pickup, NZ-wide post.
Setup, troubleshooting, and "make this work properly" for small businesses.
Hardware diagnosis, upgrades, and recovery for desktops and laptops.
