The Problem

Most web projects fail not because of bad design, but because the code underneath can't carry the weight. A site that looks great on launch starts showing cracks three months later — slow pages, fragile deploys, a CMS nobody can figure out, and a codebase the next developer opens once and closes immediately. Then you're paying to rebuild something you already paid for.

My Approach

I build with the assumption that someone who isn't me will need to touch this code in 12 months. Everything is typed, everything is documented, and everything is built to the same production standard I'd want for my own product. Performance isn't a final checkbox — it's baked in from the first commit. You get a staging URL in seven days, weekly demos throughout, and a working product you actually own at the end.

Ideal Fit

This is right for you if…

  • You have a Figma file (or a clear idea) and need a senior engineer — not a team of six with overhead to match
  • Your SaaS team has outgrown its no-code stack and needs a real codebase that can scale
  • You're an agency with overflow work and need a reliable white-label dev partner
  • You have an existing site that's slow, fragile, or impossible to update — and you need it fixed properly
  • You're a founder who wants to see something working in days, not a spec document in weeks
Not a Fit

Not the right lane if…

  • Mobile-native apps (iOS/Android) — I'll refer you to the right specialist
  • Pure design work with no development component
  • Hourly maintenance on codebases I haven't seen — I need an audit engagement first

Honest fit assessment is part of every first conversation. If this isn't the right service, I'll tell you which one is — or refer you out entirely.

How It Runs

The Process

01

Brief & Scope

Days 1–3

We align on what we're building, define success criteria, map edge cases, and lock the scope. Hard edges mean no surprises.

02

Architecture

Days 4–7

Stack decisions, database schema, component inventory, auth strategy — all before any production code. First deploy to staging happens here.

03

Build

Weeks 2–7

Weekly demos, async updates, and a staging URL you can visit any time. Feedback loops are short on purpose.

04

QA & Polish

Week 7–8

Cross-browser, mobile, accessibility, and a full Lighthouse audit. Nothing ships below 95.

05

Launch & Handoff

Final week

DNS cutover, monitoring setup, runbook, and a Loom walkthrough your team can reference forever.

What You Get

Deliverables

Every engagement ends with a clean handoff — not just working code. You should be able to own and extend what I build without a developer dependency.

  • Production codebaseTypeScript end-to-end. Deploy-on-push via GitHub Actions. Sensible defaults baked in from day one.
  • Component libraryReusable, documented, accessible by default. No design-system debt waiting to bite you.
  • CMS & content workflowEditors never need to message me. Sanity, Payload, or MDX — whichever fits your team.
  • Performance budgetLighthouse 95+. Core Web Vitals green. Real-user metrics tracked from the moment you go live.
  • SEO foundationsSemantic HTML, metadata, sitemap, structured data. The things that compound over time.
  • Launch + 30-day supportI monitor, fix what breaks, and write the runbook your team takes over with. No drop-and-run.

Common Questions

FAQ

Do you work from a Figma file?

Yes — and I'll flag design issues before writing a line of code. I've saved clients weeks of revision time by catching problems in the design review that would have been expensive to fix in production.

Can you handle the full stack?

Yes. Most of my web engagements are full-stack: frontend, backend API, database design, auth, and deployment. If you need a narrow frontend-only engagement, I can do that too — just tell me what you already have.

Do you work on existing codebases?

Yes, with an audit first. Before touching production code I've never seen, I do a one-week technical audit: architecture review, dependency audit, and a written assessment of what's there and what needs changing. This saves both of us from surprises.

What about SEO?

Semantic HTML, proper metadata, sitemap generation, and structured data are included as standard. I don't do content strategy or keyword research — but the technical foundations are always there.

What CMS do you recommend?

Sanity for most content-heavy sites. Payload for projects that need a headless backend with complex data models. MDX for developer-maintained documentation or blogs. I'll always give you an honest recommendation — including 'you don't need a CMS' if that's the truth.

What happens if something breaks after launch?

The 30-day support period covers production incidents. After that, I offer retainer arrangements for teams that want ongoing engineering support — or I can hand off to your internal team with full documentation.
