01 / What I do
Specialised help, not generic consulting.
Pick the lane you're stuck in. Each engagement is scoped, time-boxed, and shipped to your production branch.
Bug fixes
That weird production error you've been ignoring. NoMethodError on Friday afternoon. Memory leak in Sidekiq.
Version upgrades
Rails 5 to 7. Ruby 2.7 to 3.3. Replace deprecated gems. Tame the deprecation warnings.
Deployment
Heroku migration. Docker on Render/Fly. Kamal to a VPS. Zero-downtime deploys.
SAML & SSO
Okta, Google Workspace, custom IdPs. The auth thing your enterprise customer is asking for.
Stripe billing
Subscriptions, usage-based billing, webhooks, dunning. The integration nobody on the team wants to own.
AWS & infra
RDS, S3, ECS, CloudFront. Cut your bill. Set up backups before the disaster, not after.
02 / Pricing
Clear scope, clear price.
No retainers you'll forget you're paying. No SOWs that take a week to sign.
Health Check
A written report on your app, deployment, errors, security, and upgrade risk. Delivered in 3 business days.
Rescue Fix
Fixed-scope engagement for a specific bug, deploy issue, or production fire. Code shipped to your branch.
Monthly Care
Ongoing support — small features, dependency updates, monitoring, on-call for issues. Cancel any time.
