Platform-focused engineering consulting
I help organizations build or evolve internal systems into platforms by turning team expertise into consumable assets.
Through hands-on delivery, refactoring, and clear, governance-friendly contracts and boundaries, teams can scale without coordination friction.
Scaling breaks when expertise does not.
As organizations grow, critical expertise concentrates in specific teams, systems, or individuals.
Communication no longer scales. Neither does the organization.
- Core teams become bottlenecks
- Integrations turn into coordination efforts
- "Self-service" feels risky
- Refactoring gets postponed
- Progress depends on availability, not clarity
The problem is not speed. It is dependency.
Most teams try to scale with more process, more tools, or more coordination.
What is missing is something simpler and harder: making expertise explicit, bounding responsibilities, and turning knowledge into contracts.
Platforms are not about exposure. They are about deciding what others can safely depend on.
What I do
I work hands-on on internal systems and shared platforms.
This involves real delivery work: refactoring core systems, stabilizing interfaces, and shaping architecture while building.
- Extract critical expertise from teams
- Turn it into clear contracts and boundaries
- Embed it into platforms others can rely on
How I work
- 1Start from a real system with no abstract strategy work
- 2Clarify responsibilities while building
- 3Turn implicit knowledge into contracts
- 4Enable safe autonomy for other teams
Architecture is not a separate phase. It emerges from the work itself.
What typically changes
- Core teams regain focus time
- Integrations stop being treated as one-off projects
- New teams onboard with minimal support
- Refactoring becomes intentional instead of avoided
- Teams move faster without increasing fragility
Not through acceleration, but through structural clarity.
Who this is for
- Organizations with multiple teams
- Shared or business-critical systems
- Growing coordination overhead
- 50 to 500 people, scaling in complexity
Who this is not for
- Early-stage startups
- Feature-only delivery
- Short-term acceleration without structure
Not everything should become a platform. Knowing the difference is where most organizations struggle.
