Case studies
Decisions made before writing code: diagnosis, audits, migrations. Client names removed, numbers are real.
Payment and CRM providers became configuration, not code
An online school with 10,000+ students got its own billing and student accounts, synced with the course platform. Switching CRM took 48 hours instead of a rewrite.
A CPU profile found the cause, not the timing
An internal analytics dashboard froze for up to two minutes and restarted. Within a day the freeze dropped from 83 to 28 seconds, and the follow-up plan removes it.
Products went missing, and Adobe wasn't why: auditing a render farm before replacing it
A company wanted to replace an expensive render farm. The audit showed products were lost to five bugs in their own code, which any new tool would have inherited.
From 15-minute manual fulfillment to 30-second automated delivery
E-commerce reseller processing 110+ weekly orders across 3 vendor platforms — no public APIs, CAPTCHA-protected portals, race conditions causing duplicate deliveries. Rebuilt as a fully automated pipeline with atomic inventory operations, browser automation, and 5-level retry.
Money fields don't move without a discrepancy report
Money fields were moving from a CRM into the company's own system. A parity check before the switch found 13k discrepancies and ~1.4M changes that would have quietly altered how the system behaves.
A pre-launch audit found a breakage already live in production
Before a communication engine opened to a wider audience, I checked everything marked as done. The audit found 17 untracked tasks and 3 critical issues.
Architecture Review
For business owners who want their current or planned automation checked before they commit time and budget to it.
From dual-system management to a single CRM workspace
Sales team managed products in their CRM but had to separately log into the online store — data drift, orders invisible in CRM without manual entry. Built bidirectional sync with schema translation between incompatible APIs and CRM-controlled publish flags.
