SENIOR PROJECT DELIVERY
Custom software development.
Mobile apps, web applications, SaaS products, and the backend systems underneath them. Built to your specification and handed over as code your team can maintain. Agencies bring me in for white label development for agencies under their own brand.
WHAT THIS COVERS
What custom development actually means.
Custom development is the right answer when the thing you need does not exist as a product you can configure: a marketplace with unusual matching logic, a mobile app with offline behaviour, a SaaS platform with a permissions model, or an integration between systems that were never designed to talk.
It is also the wrong answer more often than development companies admit. If Shopify or a platform will do the job better and cheaper, I will say that before quoting. Everything below is work I do personally. There is no delivery team behind me and no account manager between us.
“The right build is the one your team can run after I step away.”
The operating principle
SERVICES
What I build.
From a focused feature to the full product underneath it, every engagement is scoped around the work that genuinely needs custom code.
Mobile app development
Native and cross-platform applications built from one codebase for iOS and Android.
Web application development
Dashboards, marketplaces, portals, internal tools, and products that are more application than website.
UI/UX design
Interface and product experience design carried through into the built product, not handed over as a file.
SaaS development
Multi-tenant architecture, billing, permissions, admin tooling, and the systems a SaaS needs before it can charge.
MVP development
A working first version built quickly without shortcuts that make version two unnecessarily expensive.
Backend development
APIs, databases, business logic, jobs, and integrations. It is the work users never see and every product depends on.
API development
REST APIs, webhooks, third-party integrations, and connections between systems that do not communicate natively.
Frontend development
Component architecture, state management, performance work, and maintainable interfaces for new or existing apps.
Code audit & refactoring
A direct assessment of an inherited codebase: what is salvageable, what is not, and the honest cost either way.
HOW I WORK
How a build runs.
Scope before code
You get what I would build, what I would question, and what I would cut before you commit to anything.
Fixed price, agreed upfront
You know the number before work starts. Any scope change is repriced before the work happens.
Inside your infrastructure
Your repo, branching strategy, review process, and project board. If they are not in place, I set them up in your name.
Visible progress
Commits you can watch, not status emails you have to trust. Decisions are raised when they matter.
Handed over clean
Documentation, conventional patterns, and no dependency on knowledge only I have.
THE STACK
What I build with.
I work in one ecosystem deeply rather than claiming twenty languages badly. Everything below is production experience, not a course certificate.
Frontend
Fast, maintainable interfaces for products that need to feel clear from the first click.
- React
- Next.js
- TypeScript
- Tailwind CSS
- Component architecture
- State management
Mobile
One practical codebase for iOS and Android, with native capability where it genuinely matters.
- React Native
- Expo
- TypeScript
- Navigation
- Native device APIs
- Push notifications
Backend
The business logic, authentication, jobs, and services that keep the product dependable.
- Node.js
- NestJS
- Express
- Authentication
- Background jobs
- Error handling
Database
Data models designed around the way the product actually needs to work and grow.
- PostgreSQL
- MongoDB
- Data modelling
- Migrations
- Query performance
- Access control
Integration
Reliable connections between the services your product needs to use together.
- REST APIs
- Webhooks
- OAuth
- Payment services
- Third-party APIs
- Event flows
Delivery
A build process your team can see, review, deploy, and take over with confidence.
- Git
- CI/CD
- Automated testing
- Code review
- Deployment
- Documentation
If your project needs something outside this stack, I will tell you during scoping rather than learning on your budget.
WHY PROJECT-BASED
Why bring in a developer per project.
Development demand for agencies and small teams is intermittent. A permanent salary is not. Project-based capacity exists when the work does, then releases cleanly when it ships.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Clear before the first commit.
The important commercial and technical expectations are agreed before work begins.
Can you work in an existing codebase?
Yes. Most of my work is inside code someone else wrote. I match the existing conventions rather than imposing new ones.
Do you do fixed price or hourly?
Fixed price on an agreed scope. Scope changes are repriced before the work happens, never after.
How long does a typical project take?
A focused MVP is usually six to twelve weeks. A defined feature build is often two to four. You get a real estimate after I see the requirements.
What if the scope changes?
We agree a revised price before the work happens. You will not receive an invoice you were not expecting.
Who owns the code?
You do, entirely, on final payment, including work written outside the original scope.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance?
I step away at handover by design. If something later needs changing, it becomes a new focused project.
Can you work with our existing developers?
Yes. I follow your review process and defer to the technical lead on decisions that outlive my involvement.
What if the project does not need custom development?
I will tell you, and point you at the platform that does it better. That conversation occasionally costs me a project and saves clients much more.
Have a build that needs a senior developer?
Send the scope and deadline. You will get an honest assessment of fit, a fixed price, and a realistic timeline.
