I’m a software engineering leader with over 25 years of experience developing innovative solutions in both corporate and startup environments. I’ve personally architected, deployed and maintained production services (mostly NodeJS) utilizing much of AWS, built out the CI/CD infrastructure and scaled out the team to build on it. I have a thorough understanding of the software development lifecycle, and throughout my career, I’ve been a part of, worked closely with, or managed teams on the front-end, backend, QA, Ops and Security. A believer in a DevOps culture, I’m always looking for ways to help teams work more efficiently.
I can help you achieve your goals by guiding you in many aspects of software architecture and beyond including:
- Software Development Life Cycle
- Team Management Advice (local/remote/hybrid)
- Resume Review and Career Advice
- Defining Requirements and Roadmapping
- Software Architecture Design and UML
- Coding Standards and Practices
- System Performance, Scalability, Reliability
- Security and Compliance
- Agile Best Practices
- DevOps
- AWS

He is exceptionally good. I would recommend him for anyone who is looking into DevOps.
5 out of 5 stars
James' experience and advice was very helpful for me in navigating my first year managing a DevOps team. His thought process on how to approach problems lends itself very well to mentorship as he is able to concisely share his thought process and why he thinks it works. He's very responsive and accommodating as well.
5 out of 5 stars
James is very motivated and experienced, both as a professional and as a mentor. Unfortunately the later isn't the case for everyone. James listened to my situation, and gave me a lot of good advice and information, both during calls, and through messages.
