02Capabilities

Three practices that compound engineering, AI systems, and interface design.

— 01

Product engineering

End-to-end SaaS systems built for actual production load. Type-safe APIs, predictable data layers, and a frontend that survives real users without ceremony.

  • Next.js
  • Hono / tRPC
  • Postgres
  • Drizzle
  • Stripe
  • Edge / Workers
— 02

AI workflow systems

Image, text, and agent pipelines that respect latency, cost, and failure modes. The hard parts — queues, retries, observability — built in from day one.

  • OpenAI
  • Replicate
  • Vercel AI SDK
  • Inngest
  • Queues
  • Vector DBs
— 03

Interface design

Calm, opinionated product UI with restraint. Typography, hierarchy, and motion treated as engineering disciplines — not decoration applied at the end.

  • Design systems
  • Tailwind
  • Radix / shadcn
  • Framer Motion
  • Figma
  • Prototyping
03Approach

Four moves, in order. Most of the work is removing things before adding them.

  1. — Step 01

    Understand the business goal

    Before any UI or schema. What does this product change for the people using it, and how do we know it worked?

  2. — Step 02

    Design the smallest useful product

    The shortest path between a real user and a real outcome. Everything else is deferred until the core is honest.

  3. — Step 03

    Build with production architecture

    Type-safe from edge to database. Observability, retries, and migrations as first-class — not bolted on under pressure.

  4. — Step 04

    Refine until it feels effortless

    The last 20% is where products stop feeling like demos. Latency, copy, motion, edge cases — sanded down until they disappear.

04Stack

A small, durable toolchain I trust to take an idea all the way to production.

A boring stack, on purpose.

Stable defaults, opinionated where it matters, and replaceable where it doesn't. The result is a product that ships faster the second time and the tenth time.

About

I'm a developer who cares about both the system and the surface: the architecture users never see, and the interface they feel every second.

06Contact

Have an AI product, SaaS idea, or workflow worth building?

Send a short brief. I'll help turn it into a focused, shippable product, usually within a couple of days, sometimes the same one.
