Fractional support.
Senior engineering for your product, part-time — for teams that need experienced hands, not another full-time hire.
Who this fits
- Product teams with a working Rails app and no senior engineer to keep it healthy
- Founders who need a technical sounding board plus real shipped code every month
- Teams planning an upgrade, a performance push, or a security pass that keeps slipping
- Anyone who needs senior capacity without a full-time salary
What's always included
Clear documentation of everything I touch, async-friendly communication that respects your team's time zones, and senior-level execution — the same standard as my fixed-scope builds. I take on a limited number of fractional clients so each one gets real attention.
Engagement models
-
Monthly retainer
10–40 hours a month of reserved availability: features, fixes, reviews, and advice, prioritised together at the start of each month.
-
Scoped upgrades
Fixed-price, well-bounded pieces of work — a Rails upgrade, a performance audit and fix, an integration — booked as needed.
-
Ad hoc
Hourly, for urgent issues and short questions. The smallest way to start.

A 30-minute call is enough to scope what your product needs each month.
