Software Systems Architect | Rescue, Modernize & Scale Critical Apps

If your software is slow, unstable, expensive to operate, or your engineering team is struggling to deliver, you don't need another consultant. You need someone who can take ownership, identify the real problem, and fix it. For over 25 years, I've helped companies build new software, rescue failing production systems, modernize legacy applications, and support business-critical platforms. I specialize in projects other teams don't want to touch: • Legacy systems with years of technical debt • Production outages and performance issues • Complex cloud migrations • High-load applications • Critical business software that cannot afford downtime I'm a Solutions Architect and hands-on Technical Lead. I don't stop at architecture diagrams—I work directly with the code, infrastructure, databases, cloud, and deployments. I personally lead a vetted team of senior engineers and stay involved until the solution is successfully running in production. WHAT I DO • Build SaaS platforms, APIs, cloud-native applications, and eCommerce solutions • Rescue failing projects and stabilize production systems • Modernize legacy software without unnecessary rewrites • Optimize AWS and cloud infrastructure to reduce operating costs • Build reliable DevOps pipelines and zero-downtime deployments • Become a long-term technical partner for your business COMMON CLIENT CHALLENGES "Our application crashes under load." → I identify bottlenecks, optimize databases, improve architecture, and design systems that scale. "Our cloud costs keep increasing." → I audit infrastructure, eliminate waste, and optimize cloud resources without sacrificing reliability. "Our deployments constantly break production." → I improve CI/CD, automate releases, and reduce deployment risk. "Our legacy system is slowing the business down." → I modernize existing software incrementally, reducing technical debt while keeping the business running. "We need experienced engineers we can trust." → My team becomes an extension of yours, providing senior engineering, architecture, and technical leadership. TECHNOLOGIES Backend: PHP (Laravel, Symfony, Laminas, Yii), Node.js Cloud & DevOps: AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD Data: MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch Commerce: Magento, Adobe Commerce, WooCommerce HOW I WORK • I solve business problems, not just technical ones. • I recommend the simplest solution that delivers the highest business value. • I stay technically involved throughout the project. • I use AI to accelerate engineering, debugging, code analysis, architecture reviews, and migrations—but every production decision is made and reviewed by experienced engineers. If you're looking for a long-term engineering partner who can rescue complex systems, modernize legacy software, and build reliable platforms that scale, let's talk.
