Not So Simple

Software Consulting

Not so
simple.

The simple version of the problem is rarely the one that ships. I do architecture and full‑stack engineering for teams building systems that have to hold up once the edge cases show up.

Approach

Three ways I’m usually useful.

  1. Software architecture

    Systems designed to survive their second year. Data models, service boundaries, and the handful of decisions that get expensive to reverse later.

  2. Full‑stack development

    Shipped product, not prototypes. Front to back, including the deploys, migrations, and monitoring that decide whether it actually works in the world.

  3. Technical consulting

    A straight second opinion. Build‑versus‑buy, stack choices, and an honest read on what's actually slowing the team down.

Selected Work

Two things worth showing.

Fintech / Live

BankFinder.us

Most people never switch banks because comparing them is miserable. BankFinder puts modern banking alternatives side by side, so finding a better account takes minutes instead of an afternoon.

Web3 Security

Project Athena

Token launches are where crypto's worst actors do their best work. Athena scans contracts as they appear, filters out high‑risk ERC‑20s before money moves, and puts real‑time TGE alerts in front of people early enough to act on.

Who’s Behind It

Eleven years building production software: five in aerospace, six in finance. Two fields that agree on very little except the important part — the edge cases aren’t hypothetical, and “mostly correct” isn’t a state you’re allowed to ship in.

Not So Simple is where that experience goes to work for other teams. The name is the whole thesis: the problems worth hiring someone for are the ones without a clean answer, and pretending otherwise is how projects get expensive.
