Strategic Software Development & Technical Leadership for Growing Startups
Start Your ProjectAs the founder of More to Say, I bring over two decades of software development experience to help startups build scalable, robust solutions. From my early days at Fortune 500 tech companies to leading teams at major e-commerce platforms, cloud providers, and fintech companies, I've consistently delivered software that scales from startup to enterprise.
I specialize in being the technical leader your startup needs – someone who can architect solutions, mentor your team, and write code alongside you. Whether you're building your first MVP or scaling to millions of users, I provide the expertise and guidance to get you there.
My approach combines deep technical knowledge with practical business sense, ensuring your technology decisions support your growth goals.
Strategic technical direction, system architecture design, and technology roadmap planning to ensure your startup builds on solid foundations.
End-to-end development using modern technologies. From React frontends to Node.js backends, I build complete solutions that scale.
AWS-based cloud architecture, CI/CD pipelines, and scalable infrastructure that grows with your business needs.
Technical mentoring, code reviews, and best practices implementation to level up your development team.
Enterprise Server Management Portal
Led the technical development of a customer portal for managing cloud-based dynamic server deployments. Modernized the codebase with functional programming patterns and integrated modern authentication systems.
Scalable Commerce Solutions
Built multiple web applications including activity tracking, messaging, and user profile systems. Created analytics and marketing APIs supporting a major e-commerce platform with serverless architecture.
Developer Tools & Infrastructure
Enhanced Python SDK tools for cloud services. Implemented optimization tools for reducing deployment sizes and built comprehensive testing infrastructure for next-generation endpoints.
Bond Origination Platform
Developed React SPA for financial services company to manage bond origination in backend operations for major US banks. Mentored developers and built supporting backend services.
These are live, production systems built to demonstrate the engineering depth we bring to client projects. The focus here isn't the features — it's the architecture, the infrastructure decisions, and the patterns that transfer directly to your work.
A production financial data platform running on Kubernetes — handling real-time market data, technical analysis signal detection, user authentication, and rules-based email alerting. The system uses a GraphQL API with multi-tier caching, background scheduled jobs for signal processing, and a full AWS cloud stack deployed across multiple availability zones with auto-scaling.
The goal was to build something that behaves like enterprise software from day one: reproducible infrastructure, layered security, and an architecture that separates concerns cleanly enough to extend without friction.
A production translation platform integrating four distinct AI providers behind a unified interface — handling text, images, and documents across 44 languages without exposing credentials to clients or browsers. The architecture is built to evolve: providers can be swapped or added without touching application logic.
The system runs on ECS Fargate with ALB path-based routing, runtime secret injection via AWS Secrets Manager, and CI/CD deployed through GitHub Actions OIDC — meaning no long-lived credentials exist anywhere in the pipeline. This is how AI-powered products should be built when security and maintainability matter.
