workflow
My methodology transforms ambitious visions into enduring digital legacies. I don't do transactional work; I build long-term partnerships rooted in Product First Engineering.
Deep understanding must precede technical execution. I act as a strategic advisor, utilizing a mandatory Discovery Phase to eliminate ambiguity and risk before writing a single line of code.
Phase 1: Deep Dive
The Map — Understanding Before Code
- No Compromise: I immerse myself to understand your vision completely.
- Domain Knowledge: I extract key insights to align with your purpose.
- Design-First: I define the UX/UI and a "Map to follow" before development begins.
Deliverables: Roadmap, Tech Specs, Visual Concepts, Budget.
Phase 2: Development
The Engine — Execution & Transparency
- Agile: Iterative sprints for responsiveness.
- Bespoke Quality: Specializing in complex systems (AI, Real-time Systems).
- Transparency: You get constant feedback loops and live testing dashboards.
- Accountability: I guarantee technical excellence.
Phase 3: The Long Game
The Partnership — Sustained Stewardship
- Relationship: A perpetual partnership, not a one-off deal.
- Retainer: Continuous maintenance for your "Peace of Mind".
- Evolution: I constantly research the next phase to keep your software competitive.
Radical Transparency
To achieve the extraordinary, I embrace radical transparency as a core operational strategy. This commitment to clear communication transforms the development process into an objective, measurable partnership.
I. The Mechanism: Communication & Feedback
Mistakes made during planning are expensive. I mitigate this risk through formalized, frequent communication loops.
- Constant Feedback: Utilizing Agile methodologies and iterative sprints, I deploy fast feedback loops to validate development immediately.
- Weekly Updates: You receive detailed progress reports on achievements, decisions, and blockers.
- Clear Communication: I prioritize open dialogue, using your terminology to ensure full comprehension and alignment.
II. Reports Worth Looking At
Reports are built on objective data to quantify engineering excellence, not sales metrics.
- Live Visibility Dashboard: You are never left wondering. Access a dedicated dashboard with live testing data, work status, and defect tracking.
- Technical Performance Charts: I prove quality through systematic testing, including load testing, stress testing, and real-world performance data.
- Strategic Reporting: Updates focus on ROI and strategic viability. I constantly research Phase 2 features to align with your future vision.
The Arsenal
Velocity via Terminal — The 10x Stack
I operate in a high-performance, mouseless environment designed for zero-latency execution. By fusing modal editing with tiling window management, I eliminate friction between intent and implementation.
Core & Edit
- nvim + coc: The ultimate programmable editor.
- helix: Modern, post-modern text editing.
- snippets: Why type boilerplate twice?
Shell & Term
- fish: Autosuggestions out of the box.
- tmux: Persistent multitasking sessions.
- alacritty / ghostty / kitty: GPU-accelerated throughput.
Environment
- i3 / sway: Tiling WM for maximum screen real estate.
- picom + nitrogen: Composition & Aesthetics.
- polybar / waybar / i3status: Telemetry.
Utilities
