No agency layers. No handoff drift. You work directly with the person writing the code, integrating the APIs, and answering the pager.
A working session to map the problem. We pressure-test goals against constraints, traffic, content cadence, team capacity, integration surface, and produce a written scope with milestones, success metrics, and a clear architectural recommendation.
Pick the right stack instead of the trendy one. Next.js or Nuxt, headless CMS vs. static, edge vs. serverless, SSR vs. ISR. Every decision documented with trade-offs so you and future engineers know why.
Two-week increments, preview deployments on every PR, daily Loom updates if useful. Component libraries, typed APIs, tested integrations, Playwright for the critical flows. You see progress as it lands, not at the end.
Core Web Vitals budget enforced in CI. WCAG 2.2 AA passes. Structured data, sitemap, robots, OG tags audited per template. Synthetic monitoring and analytics instrumentation wired before launch. Not as an afterthought.
Cutover with a rollback plan. Real-user monitoring, conversion instrumentation, and an opinionated dashboard. Then we iterate on what the data says. Not what feels good in the meeting.
Most engagements start with a free 30-minute call. Bring the problem, leave with a recommended approach and a rough estimate. No pitch deck.
