Hey! Before I tell you about 10xEngineer, let me share a bit about myself. I've spent years in the trenches of both big tech and startups. I've built systems at American Express and Wedbush Securities that handle millions of transactions, and I've also helped build Vested from the ground up, where we revolutionized global investing for Indians.
And now? I'm here to help founders like you build amazing products.
Why Speed Doesn't Have to Kill Quality
Look, I get it. When you're building a startup, everything feels like it's on fire. You need features yesterday, investors want to see progress, and competitors aren't waiting around. But here's what I've learned: moving fast doesn't mean writing spaghetti code.
I've found ways to build fast without creating messes you'll have to clean up later. Trust me, nothing kills momentum quite like having to rebuild your entire codebase just when you're starting to get traction.
Security Isn't Optional Anymore
Remember when startups could get away with "we'll add security later"? Those days are gone. One data breach can kill your startup faster than any competitor. Having built secure systems at major banks, I know how to bake in security from the start without slowing down development.
Let's Talk About Future-Proofing
Here's something funny - most developers will tell you they write "scalable" code. But you know what I've noticed? Their definition of scalable usually means "it works for now." Having built systems that actually had to scale at both startups and big banks, I've learned what really matters.
I choose tech stacks that grow with you. No experimental frameworks that might die next year, no overcomplicated solutions that'll box you in. Just solid, proven tech that keeps your options open.
You'll Always Know What's Going On
One thing that drives me nuts is developers who disappear into a black hole with your code. I believe in showing my work - regular demos, clear updates, and actual working features you can play with. No mysteries, no surprises.
Making It Work For Your Budget
Starting up is expensive enough without burning cash on overengineered solutions. I've structured my pricing to work for early-stage startups. Whether you need a focused MVP at $2K or ongoing development at $10K per month, we'll find a way to make it work.
Direct Communication = Better Results
When you work with me, you work with ME. Not an account manager, not a project coordinator - just direct communication with the person actually writing your code. Got a new idea at 2 AM? Send it over. Need to pivot something? Let's talk it through.
What's Next?
If you're building something exciting and want a technical partner who gets both the big picture and the nitty-gritty details, let's chat. I love helping founders turn their ideas into reality, and I'd love to hear what you're working on.
Shoot me an email or schedule a call - let's build something amazing together.
