The Anti-Over-Engineering Philosophy
90% of startups fail because they build things users don't want on foundations that can't scale. I help you avoid both traps.
- Minimal MVP: We ship the core value, not the fluff.
- Performance-First: Go & Elixir for speed and stability.
- Smart Automation: Managed Linux servers (cost-efficient).
- AI Integration: Only where it actually generates ROI.

The "Equity Only" Conversation
I am often asked to work for 100% equity. I am honest: I don't.
Building a company yourself is free, but takes months/years of learning. Hiring me is an investment to save you that time and avoid the technical debt that kills funded startups.
I offer a Hybrid Model: A minimal cash fee + Equity kicker. This ensures both parties have professional skin in the game. If you believe in your idea, you should believe in funding its foundation.
Let's build something real.
Book your 20-minute discussion. If I can't help you, I'll tell you why—for free.
I will personally review your request and respond within 24h.
Expertise, Demystified.
Why hiring a Senior Fullstack Architect is the ultimate shortcut for your startup.
Why a Fractional CTO?
A full-time CTO at my seniority level costs €150k - €250k+ per year. An agency charges 3x my rate to cover their office rent and project managers. You don't need a building or a manager; you need a partner who writes code.
The 1 vs. 7 Advantage
In a traditional setup, you pay for 7 different roles. As a Senior Fullstack Architect, I replace:
- Backend Engineer (Go/Elixir)
- Frontend Engineer (React)
- DevOps & SysAdmin
- Database Administrator
- Business Analyst
- Security Auditor
- Project Manager
Cost Efficiency
Agencies have massive overhead. I don't. I pass those savings directly to your runway. A €100k agency MVP can often be built better for €20k-€30k when you cut out the middleman.
From Idea to Scale: The 3 Stages
We don't just "build an app." We follow a validation-first roadmap.
1 Proof of Concept (PoC)
Goal: Technical feasibility. We prove that the "impossible" part of your idea actually works.
Time: 1-2 weeks.
2 Prototype
Goal: User experience. A clickable journey that looks and feels real, used to secure early feedback or investors.
Time: 2-4 weeks.
3 MVP (Minimum Viable Product)
Goal: Market launch. A hardened, production-ready system built on Go/Elixir that handles real users and real money.
Time: 2-3 months.
The "AI-Only" Trap
AI is a tool, not an architect. High-performance systems in Go and Elixir require human intuition to handle edge cases, security vulnerabilities, and long-term scalability. All my code is human-crafted, augmented by AI only for boilerplate. You get a codebase you actually own, not a "black box" of technical debt.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can you be so much cheaper than an agency?
Agencies have sales teams, HR, office rent, and non-coding managers. You are paying for their 40% profit margin. With me, you pay for 100% engineering.
What happens if my startup becomes a huge success?
That's the goal. I don't hold your code hostage. As you grow, I help you interview and hire your first full-time devs. I can transition into a purely consulting/advisory role, providing code reviews and architectural guidance at a reduced fractional rate.
What tech do you use for internal tools?
I don't believe in paying $20/user for every SaaS. I can install and manage self-hosted, open-source alternatives (like Plausible for analytics, Metabase for BI, or Nocodb) on your own servers to keep your monthly burn near zero.
Can we use Elixir or GOlang for everything?
Elixir is incredible for real-time features (chat, live dashboards). Go is perfect for high-speed microservices or CLI tools. I pick the tool that fits your specific problem, not my favorite hammer.
Is there a contract? Who owns the IP?
Yes, we sign a standard service agreement. These are all discussed in the contract.
Why do you prefer Linux Servers over various cloud providers?
Managed platforms are great at first but become "vampire costs" as you scale. By automating raw Linux servers, we keep your infrastructure costs under $50/mo for a long time.
Do you do the design too?
I will use modern UI/UX best practices. If you need high-end custom branding, illustrations UI or UX, I can recommend specialist designers I work with.
What is your availability?
I only work with 2-3 founders at a time to ensure "Lead" level quality. Once my slots are full, I open a waiting list for the next quarter.
What if I only have a deck and no money?
I recommend building the PoC yourself using no-code tools to validate the idea first. Come to me when you are ready to build the Minimum VIable Product version of your product.
How do we communicate?
Deltachat for daily async comms, and one deep-dive Strategy Call on (bi)weekly to align on the roadmap.
Ready to build on a solid foundation?
No more "black box" development. Get the transparency your startup deserves.
