What I build for clients
Three things I've shipped in production enough times to quote with confidence.
Stripe integrations
Checkout, Payment Intents, Terminal (in-person card readers), Connect, webhooks. From scratch or rescuing legacy. Idempotent, reconciled, refundable.
Next.js builds
App Router, server components, edge auth, Postgres, real production deploys. The kind of build where the demo and the prod are the same code.
Postgres rescues
Untangle a schema, fix slow queries, add the indexes that should already exist, design migrations that ship under load without a maintenance window.
