Hire me

Open to new opportunities

I take on a small number of engagements alongside my current role, and I am open to the right full-time position. Either way, the work that suits me best is owning a hard problem end to end and dealing directly with the people it affects.

  • Project or retainer

    Freelance & contract

    Senior hands on a defined problem — designing or rescuing an API, integrating payments or booking systems, or replacing a manual operation with automation. Scoped, delivered, and handed over with the documentation to run it.

    • API & microservice builds and rescues
    • Payments, promotions and booking integrations
    • Automation of manual operations
    • Fixed-scope audit or architecture review
    Start a freelance enquiry
  • Open to the right role

    Full-time role

    Technical Lead or Architect positions where I am accountable for delivery and work directly with stakeholders — the same shape as my current Disney engagement, which has held for over five years.

    • Technical lead or architect scope
    • Enterprise API and platform ownership
    • Stakeholder-facing delivery leadership
    • Building and mentoring delivery teams
    Discuss a full-time role

Based in Olongapo City (UTC+8). Five years working with US-based teams means I overlap comfortably with APAC and with the US morning, and I am used to operating on their hours when a delivery needs it.
