As a senior full-stack developer, I've helped 40+ companies build software, launch startups, and automate workflows for 20+ years.
What I do best:
- AI & Workflow Automations (custom agents, LLM pipelines, form fillers, document processing).
- Backend, custom servers, scripting, API integrations, and standalone systems execution.
- MVPs & Rapid Prototypes (clean, production-ready apps & web apps built fast).
- Consulting, analysis and tech advisory.
I've built apps and server software for every major platform. See my resume and portfolio for past work.
My focus is on engineering excellence and under-engineered solutions that cost less to build and run. Write once, run forever.
How to Work With Me
There are three ways to work with me. Ad-hoc hourly work, subscription based retainer, and fixed-price projects.
Forget the recruiters and interviews. Get immediate access to a senior developer in less time than it takes to post a job ad.
Choose the engagement model that best matches your needs:
1. Ad-Hoc / Hourly
Rate: $400 AUD / hour
Best for short term software development, advisory sessions, technical debt and code reviews, quick bug fixes, API integrations, or small dev tasks where you just need a senior pair of hands for a few hours without an ongoing commitment.
- Frictionless: No minimum commitment beyond 1 hour.
- Flexible Scheduling: Scheduled around your project timeline and priorities without long-term commitments.
Get in touch by email and tell me what you need solved.
2. Monthly Subscription
Rate: $5,000 AUD / month
A flat-fee, asynchronous software implementation model. Get steady throughput from a 20+ year senior developer without the overhead of meetings, hand-holding management, or variable invoices.
Why Clients Love This Model:
- Continuous Shipping: Progress delivered on a steady cadence measured in days rather than months.
- One Active Ticket at a Time: Keep an unlimited queue of tasks. You choose the #1 priority, and I execute on it. Something urgent come up? Swap it to the top of the queue anytime.
- Simple Flat Monthly Fee: Predictable budgeting with no timesheet tracking, variable invoices, or detailed line-item breakdowns.
- No Meeting Overhead: Save your team's time with no long calls or daily standups. All work is delivered via clean pull requests, deployed code, concise reports, and short video walkthroughs you can review on your own schedule.
- Code Craftsmanship: I don't just close tickets. I'll leave your codebase cleaner than I found it by adding tests, documenting setup steps, and avoiding unnecessary complexity.
- Pause or Cancel Anytime: Going on holiday or running low on tasks? Pause your subscription with one click and resume when ready without losing unused days.
How It Works:
- Subscribe & Invite: You subscribe and add me to your GitHub repo or project tracker.
- Queue Your Tasks: Line up your backlog and pick your #1 priority ticket.
- Continuous Execution: I get to work and ship focused PRs, code updates, or video walkthroughs every few days.
- Review & Repeat: You review, accept, and set the next priority ticket.
What I Build on Subscription:
- New AI automations, custom agents, and internal tools.
- MVP features, frontend code, API integrations, and standalone microservices.
- Scripting, web app backends, and pipeline automation (ClojureScript, Python, JavaScript, etc.).
- Something else - I can build your niche piece of bespoke software.
Great Fit For:
- Founders, PMs, and CTOs who want steady output without managing a developer.
- Teams needing extra senior capacity or bridge coverage while hiring.
- Projects with a clean codebase or clear new-feature scope.
- Tracking down those gnarly bugs nobody else can fix.
NOT a Fit For:
- Daily synchronous status meetings or emergency on-call server alerts.
- Detailed line-item invoices or hourly timesheet tracking.
- Maintaining or refactoring untargeted legacy spaghetti codebases.
Zero-Risk Guarantee: Unsure if the async subscription model is right for you? If you aren't completely satisfied within the first 3 weeks of your first month, let me know. I'll refund your fee and cancel the subscription with no questions asked.

3. Fixed-Price Projects
Range: $5,000 – $50,000+ AUD
Best for well-scoped AI automations, turnkey service solutions, or standalone MVP builds with a single clear deliverable.
- Clear Scope & Outcomes: Fixed price quoted upfront based on project requirements.
- 30-Day Support: Includes 30 days of post-handover bug fixes for the delivered scope.
- Post-Handover Options: After 30 days, ongoing updates can be handled via Ad-hoc hourly work or a monthly subscription.
