I will design your system architecture as a senior architect
About this gig
Choosing the wrong architecture early costs months later wrong stack, wrong boundaries, wrong scaling assumptions. I help you choose right the first time.
I'm a senior architect with 18+ years building enterprise systems: microservices, distributed systems, cloud-native platforms, and production AI. I've taken architectures from zero to scale.
WHAT YOU GET
Basic an architecture proposal for one service or feature, with the key trade-offs called out
Standard a full MVP architecture: services, data model, deployment topology, in a written report
Premium an enterprise architecture for multi-team scope, with a scalability roadmap and a 60-minute call
I work with Java/Spring, Python, Go; microservices, event-driven, and modular-monolith patterns; cloud and on-prem. You get a clear written design not a slideshow that your team can build against.
WHY ME
I've made these calls in production, where the bad ones get expensive. I tell you what's appropriate for your stage and what to defer until later.
Message me with your project goal and team size before ordering so I can confirm the right package. NDA on request.
