Hired for outcomes, not a list of skills.
I go deep on two problems most teams find hard to hire for: making products agent-ready, and building commerce that's fast and fully under your control. Everything else I do supports those two.
MCP & AI integrations
AI-forward startups that want their product, data, or commerce platform to be usable by AI agents — safely and in production.
Teams know agents are coming but don't want to hand an LLM raw write access to a production system. The hard part isn't the model — it's the surface: what an agent can see, what it can do, and how you prove it behaves.
What you get
- MCP server design — tools, resources, and prompts with typed schemas
- Agent-ready commerce and internal data, exposed with scoped permissions
- Auth, rate limiting, and audit logging built in from the start
- Evals and guardrails so the integration holds up under real traffic
- Documentation and handoff so your team can extend it
Recent example: an MCP server that let customers' agents read catalog and order data and take scoped, audited actions — shipped to production tenants in weeks, not quarters.
Custom & headless commerce
D2C brands that have outgrown the template store and need speed, control, and a checkout that fits the business.
Themed stores hit a ceiling: pages are slow, merchandising means fighting the template, and the checkout can't support the subscription or bundle flows you actually want to sell. A replatform is the answer — but only if it protects your rankings and revenue.
What you get
- Headless storefronts built for Core Web Vitals and conversion
- Replatforms and migrations that preserve SEO and revenue
- Custom checkout, subscriptions, and bundle flows
- Back-office, payment, and fulfilment integrations
- A CMS your team can run without a developer in the loop
Recent example: replatforming a slow templated store to a headless React storefront with a custom checkout — faster mobile pages, no ranking drop through the migration.
When the work spills past the two spikes.
Full-stack product work
Founding-engineer-level delivery across Rails + Inertia + React when you need features shipped, not just advice.
React Native mobile
Cross-platform mobile apps that share logic with your web stack and ship to both stores.
Technical advisory
Async architecture reviews, hiring input, and a second senior opinion when the stakes are high.
Project, retainer, or advisory — priced for the shape of the work.
Fixed-scope projects, ongoing monthly retainers, or async advisory. See how each one works and what it costs.
