I am a consulting Software Engineer who helps his clients minimize the operational and maintenance cost of their software. I specialize in the architecture and implementation of Python systems in Cloud environments.
Are you operating a software system that fails to meet the existing availability or performance requirements? KPIs are looking bad, the system is getting slower by the day, and the IT support is flooded with tickets.
Are you developing a software solution that just doesn't take off? Development progress is unexpectedly slow, even though the teams are working hard to meet deadlines.
Do you want to develop a new, low-maintenance solution to ensure none of the above will happen?
If you answered “yes” at least once while reading the above, chances are high that I can support you. Please see the following overview and find out how I helped my clients in previous projects:
