Nick S.

I was the CTO of Source Digital (a $100m AI video platform), the Technology Director at Temple University CPHLR (Center for Public Health Law Research), and the head of R&D at Loyalty Methods (One of the largest loyalty platforms on Earth). I've worked directly with Google, the United Nations, Deepmind, Amazon, Walmart, Comcast and other large names. I've managed 300+ engineers, designed architecture that's sold for more than $100m and licensed for more than $5.7m, and personally built 5 platforms from scratch that sold for over $50m. I've been writing code full time for over 30 years. I'm super easy to work with, punctual, no-nonsense, respectful, brutally honest and I've probably done what you're looking to achieve several times over (and if not I'll tell you immediately). I help startups and enterprises build production software that scales. With 20+ years of engineering experience, I deliver end-to-end solutions across AI, mobile, backend, cloud, and automation, from architecture and implementation to deployment and long-term support. I also build analytics, marketing automation, and data platforms, helping businesses measure user behavior, optimize conversions, and automate operations using modern analytics and AI tooling. 🏆 Selected Highlights ✅ Production mobile apps with millions of downloads across iOS & Android ✅ AI-powered platforms serving Amazon Prime, Disney+, Discovery & Universal ✅ Clinical SaaS platform acquired for $53M ✅ Enterprise data systems supporting 3,143 US counties ✅ Production SDKs contributing to $5.7M in licensing deals ✅ Delivered $3.1M in annual operational savings with 377% productivity improvement 💡 Core Expertise 🤖 AI & LLM • Claude • OpenAI • MCP • RAG • AI Agents • LangGraph • Vector Search • Prompt Engineering ⚙️ Backend • Python • FastAPI • Node.js • TypeScript • PostgreSQL • REST • GraphQL • Microservices 📱 Mobile • React Native • Flutter • Swift • Kotlin • Expo • BLE • Firebase • App Store & Google Play ☁️ Cloud & DevOps • AWS • Azure • GCP • Docker • Kubernetes • Terraform • GitHub Actions • CI/CD 📊 Analytics & Data • Google Analytics 4 (GA4) • Google Tag Manager (GTM) • Looker Studio • Google Search Console • PostHog • Mixpanel • BigQuery • Snowflake • A/B Testing • Event Instrumentation • Conversion Tracking • Product Analytics 📈 Marketing & Growth • HubSpot • Shopify • Stripe • Meta Marketing API • Facebook Conversions API (CAPI) • Google Ads • Klaviyo • CRM Automation • Email Marketing • Lead Tracking 🔗 Automation & Integrations • n8n • Make • Zapier • Twilio • Microsoft Graph API • Shopify APIs • Google APIs • Slack API • Webhooks 🔒 Security & Compliance • SOC 2 • ISO 27001 • HIPAA • SOX • GDPR-Aware Architecture • OAuth • JWT • RBAC 🎯 What You Can Expect ✔️ Production-ready architecture ✔️ Clean, maintainable code ✔️ Fast delivery using Claude Code & Cursor ✔️ Proactive communication ✔️ Scalable, secure, and reliable solutions ✔️ Long-term technical partnership 🌟 Available For • Fractional CTO • AI & LLM Systems • Full-Stack Development • Mobile Applications • Cloud Architecture • API Development • Automation & Integrations • Technical Leadership
