I connect your product to the tools your customers already use.

01 — Integrations

Your app, connected to Drive, Notion, SharePoint and more.

I've built 30+ integrations that sync more than 10,000 files a day. Auth, webhooks, rate limits and retries are what break at 2 a.m., so that's what I get right.

Built before

  • Google Drive
  • Notion
  • Dropbox
  • SharePoint
  • Slack
  • Box
  • Bynder
  • Aprimo

Yours isn't listed? I'll build it.

Extend your app

Add a new 3rd-party integration to the product you already have.

Build it new

A new application, built around the services it connects to.

02 — Managed hosting

I build it. I keep it running.

If I built it and you don't want to take care of the hosting, I will continue to run your application on AWS or on a self-hosted server.

  • AWS (Lambda, ECS, SQS, S3, …) or self-hosted
  • Deployments, monitoring and alerts
  • Scaling when your traffic grows
  • Backups and security updates

03 — Performance & cost

Faster apps. Smaller AWS bills.

I find what's slow and what's expensive, then fix it. Clients have cut their AWS bills by up to 30%, without giving up speed.

  • Profiling of APIs, queries and background jobs
  • Right-sizing, and serverless where it fits
  • Caching, indexing and queueing
  • A clear report: what changed and what it saves

04 — Event data pipelines

10 million events a day, delivered where you need them.

Real-time event streams, loaded in batches, transformed and passed on to your warehouse, CRM or any other system. Built for traffic spikes, without losing events.

  1. Stream
  2. Load
  3. Transform
  4. Deliver
events.ts
// Real-time events in, clean rows out.
export async function handler(batch: EventBatch) {
  const events = batch.records
    .map(decode)
    .filter(isValid);

  const rows = events.map(toWarehouseRow);
  await warehouse.insert("events", rows);

  return { processed: rows.length };
}
