Technical partner · part-time

I decide the architecture. I also write the code.

Senior technical time for companies that don't need a full-time CTO yet, or can't hire one yet. Five to ten hours a week on a monthly retainer. Most people selling this attend meetings. I ship, and there's a platform in production you can go and look at.

The production stack behind ScoPik: Next.js and a React Native iOS app calling a Laravel API with Sanctum, Reverb websockets and queues, over PostgreSQL and S3 — with 1,198 ranked players, 1,065 matches, 12,219 rallies and 410 commits

Selected work

Tournaments, brackets, live scoring down to the rally, and a national ranking. Partner and technical lead. I run the technical side and write the code.

1,198 ranked players and 1,065 matches, two months from launch. Still shipping weekly.

Six-figure engagement

RWA Tokenization Platform

A full venture build: bilingual whitepaper, pitch deck, five-year model, licensing across seven jurisdictions, and a working investor dashboard.

Six figures. The build and the investor documents came from one person, so the deck matched the model.

Admissions through to invoicing and profit-and-loss by branch. Thirty-three data models, forty-three screens, built from a written specification in one pass.

Most academy software stops at attendance. P&L by branch shipped in the first release.

How I work

Written first, few clients, everything handed over.

  • Decisions in writing. Architecture notes, data models, specs. Not a verbal answer on a call you'll misremember in six weeks.
  • Calls capped at two hours a month. Working hours 2–7 p.m. Vietnam time, which is 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the UK and the working day across Southeast Asia.
  • Retainers billed monthly, thirty days' notice. Fixed-scope work is half up front, half on delivery.
  • You own all of it. Source, infrastructure, credentials, documents. Nothing runs anywhere you can't reach.
  • A small number of clients, on purpose. Ten hours a week of senior attention beats thirty spread across six companies.

Background

A builder who can also make the case for it.

I build products and run them in production: web, mobile, realtime, payments, and the unglamorous operational systems a business actually runs on. Then I write the documents that get them funded. That second half is the unusual part, and it's why the technical story and the investor story stop contradicting each other.

Based in Vietnam, working with companies in the UK and Southeast Asia. Clients have included a nail salon in Mayfair, an aesthetics clinic in Jakarta, and a real-world-asset platform raising internationally.

Tell me what you're building.

A short note about the company and where you're stuck is enough. If it's a fit I'll come back within two working days with scope, price and a date. If it isn't, I'll say so and point you somewhere better.
