We turn a loose request into a short list of work, questions, and acceptance checks.
Backend developer for releases that need to ship
I find where the work is stuck, cut the unnecessary parts, write code the team can review, and hand it over without making the next person reconstruct the story. No full-time hire required.
When backend work blocks the release, I help isolate and close the blocker.
I start with the part that actually has to ship, make the tradeoffs visible, and keep the handover plain enough for the team to own it afterwards.
Where the team gets relief
Backend changes stay small enough for review, with risky decisions called out before they become expensive to change.
The next owner can see what changed, why it changed, and what to watch in production.
Backend work I can take off your plate
Pimcore PIM catalog for 100k+ SKUs
Helped move a beauty retailer’s catalog from spreadsheets and one-off uploads into a managed PIM workflow: data model, imports, media, approvals, and online-store export in 3 months.
SSO and service catalog for contractors
In 2 months, the team delivered an SSO MVP on Keycloak/AD; in another 3 weeks, it released a service catalog that made corporate-service access clearer for employees and external contractors.
AI-assisted workflow for marketplace cards
Set up a production experiment across 72 product cards: AI draft, editorial QA, category restrictions, and weekly search-position tracking. The result was lower time and budget without removing human review.
How to bring me in without a long contract
Release check
Before you spend a sprint, I unpack the goal, backend unknowns, risks, and the smallest useful scope.
You get: a short decision brief, risk list, and the first piece of work.Feature or integration
I take a bounded backend task from notes and tickets to reviewed code that can go into the release.
You get: the working change, known tradeoffs, and handover notes.Legacy stabilization
When a product area is fragile, I make the next change safer and avoid rewrites without evidence.
You get: a safer release path, clearer ownership, and fewer support surprises.Recent backend roles

What I usually handle
Where this works best
Good fit
CTOs, product leads, and agencies with a specific backend problem, a deadline, and someone who can make product decisions.
Best start
A bounded feature, integration, fragile module, or architecture question that needs a senior backend read before the team commits.
Not a fit
Vague “build everything” requests, pure landing pages, growth-hacking funnels, or work where nobody owns product tradeoffs.
