This isn’t a “hire me” post.
This is me being honest about the last few years.
I’ve built MVPs that reached accelerators (500 Startups). I’ve joined tiny teams (4–6 engineers) and shipped features that entire ops teams depended on. I’ve built AI tools, dashboards, payments — the unsexy stuff that keeps a company alive.
But somewhere along the way, I realized something:
👉 My best work always happens when I’m helping a founder bring clarity to something messy.
Not writing perfect code.
Not joining a corporate team.
But sitting with a founder who has a vision and saying:
“Okay, here’s the version we should build first. And here’s how I’ll build it fast.”
That’s where I’m useful.
That’s why I’m posting here.
💬 Who I work best with
If you’re a non-technical founder and right now you’re thinking:
“I’m not sure what to build first.”
“My last developer vanished/burned me.”
“I need someone experienced who can just own the MVP.”
“I don’t want an agency or a junior dev.”
“I’ve been sitting on this idea forever.”
Then yeah — we should talk.
I don’t do vague consulting.
I don’t do endless planning.
I build the thing.
Fast.
Clean.
With you, not for you.
🧩 What I actually do
Turn messy ideas → a simple, clean MVP roadmap
Build full-stack products (Next.js, Python, FastAPI, Node, AI, whatever fits)
Fix half-built MVPs
Prepare products for first users, investors, or pilots
Join tiny teams and take over the technical leadership
Make decisions founders don’t want to make alone
I’m not trying to be the “AI guru” or “10x engineer.”
I’m just someone who has built enough products to know how to get the first version right.

No bullshit.
No agency nonsense.
Just real building.
