Your backend shouldn't become a liability as your startup scales. I help early-stage teams build Go-based backend systems that are production-ready from day one — not held together with workarounds you'll regret in six months. If you're building something that needs to work reliably in production — not just pass a demo — that's where I do my best work. What I build: - Backend & Microservices — Go services built on clean architecture and DDD; designed to be maintainable by your team after I'm done - Event-Driven Pipelines — Kafka, RabbitMQ, Redis; high-throughput ingestion, enrichment, and streaming - Infrastructure & DevOps — Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, GitHub Actions; AWS and DigitalOcean; production-grade from the start - Databases & Search — PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch; schema design and query optimization for real workloads - Observability — Prometheus, Grafana, structured logging; so you know what's happening before your users do How I engage: I prefer to be involved early — architecture decisions, data modeling, API contracts — not called in after the foundation is already cracked. I document everything, communicate proactively, and stay focused on root causes rather than quick patches. Most clients bring me in to own a system end-to-end. That's where I work best. Ready to build something that holds up in production? Let's talk through what you're working on.
