Technical Strategy & Generative AI Integration

I bridge the gap between business goals and technical execution. As a Hands-on Architect or Fractional CTO, I don't just design roadmaps; I validate them with code. My recent focus is on pragmatic Generative AI (LLM) integration, helping companies move from "AI hype" to functional, automated workflows.

Focus: Tech Roadmapping, AI/LLM (Vertex/OpenAI), Feasibility Studies, Pragmatic Architecture.

Cloud-Native Architecture & Performance

Speed isn't just about frontend code; it's about the entire stack. Drawing on my background in infrastructure and networking, I design scalable cloud architectures (AWS/GCP) that ensure your applications are secure, resilient, and lightning-fast. I handle the full cycle: from Docker/CI/CD pipelines to Core Web Vitals.

Focus: Google Cloud/AWS, Serverless, CI/CD, System Architecture, Web Performance.

Complex Integrations & Custom Platforms

I thrive where standard plugins fail. I build bespoke digital experiences that require complex integrations, connecting Headless CMSs, CRM systems (Salesforce, Hubspot), and Payment Providers (Adyen/Stripe) with robust security protocols. I ensure seamless identity management and user retention flows.

Focus: Full Stack (Node.js/Angular/React), Security (Keycloak/Auth0), Headless CMS, API Integrations.
