Why work with me

A consulting partner, not a contractor

You're buying solved problems and systems your team can own — not hours on a timesheet.

Problems, not hours

You're buying an outcome — a faster pipeline, a lower cloud bill, a reliable system — not a timesheet. Scope and pricing are tied to results.

Research-grade rigor

A decade building software and infrastructure for scientists means reproducibility, provenance, and correctness are defaults, not afterthoughts.

Full-stack depth

From HPC schedulers and cloud architecture to APIs, data portals, and AI systems — one partner who understands the whole stack.

Built to be handed off

Every engagement ends with documentation, tests, and knowledge transfer so your team owns the result and isn't dependent on me.

Senior expertise, directly

You work with the engineer doing the work — not an account manager relaying to a junior team.

Honest technical judgment

If a simpler or cheaper approach is right, I'll tell you. If a project isn't a fit, I'll say so. Trust is the whole business.
