Architecture & Systems Design

I help teams design systems that survive contact with reality — monolith migrations, greenfield platforms, and architecture decisions you won't regret.

I help engineering teams design systems that survive contact with reality. Whether you're modernizing a monolith, designing a new platform from scratch, or need a second opinion on your architecture, I bring 12 years of experience shipping distributed systems in production.

What this includes

  • System architecture review and gap analysis for existing platforms
  • Greenfield architecture design with technology selection and trade-off analysis
  • Monolith-to-microservice migration planning with incremental rollout strategies
  • Database design and query optimization for high-throughput workloads
  • API design review following REST best practices and domain-driven boundaries
  • Performance profiling and bottleneck identification in Java/Spring ecosystems

What you get

  • Architecture decision records (ADRs) documenting key choices and trade-offs
  • System design diagrams with component interaction models
  • Technology evaluation matrix with cost/risk/benefit analysis
  • Migration roadmap with phased rollout plan
  • Code review of critical system paths
