If your AWS bill keeps climbing, production breaks under load, or a compliance deadline is getting close - the problem is rarely just AWS. Itโ€™s the architecture. I step into fragile systems and fix both: cloud infrastructure, and the application design running on it. Because even perfect AWS setup cannot save software that wasnโ€™t designed to scale, isolate failures, or handle real production traffic. Most teams I work with are stuck in one of these situations: - AWS costs rising every month with no clear reason - Systems that pass tests but fail under real traffic - Compliance pressure from regulators or auditors - Constant firefighting instead of controlled releases Hiring more engineers or adding more monitoring increases complexity. I simplify the architecture - both infrastructure and code-level design - so the problems stop repeating. Recent outcomes: - Avoided a $5M federal penalty by delivering a critical federal platform before deadline, focusing only on what was required for compliant launch - Cut hosting costs from $96K to $14K per year by eliminating architectural waste across infrastructure and services - Designed and delivered a FedNow-ready, Federal Reserve-compliant real-time payments system scaling to 60,000 transactions per second using horizontally scaled services built specifically for cloud behavior What changes after Iโ€™m done: - Infrastructure and software designed to scale together - Predictable AWS costs - Systems that stay stable under load - Clear documentation and runbooks - A team that can operate it independently I build boring, predictable systems on purpose. Boring systems survive audits, scale events, and 3am incidents. If youโ€™re dealing with cost pressure, reliability issues, or compliance risk, send me your biggest concern. Iโ€™ll tell you exactly what I would fix first and whether itโ€™s worth doing. If itโ€™s not a fit, Iโ€™ll say so.
