About

I’m a CTO, founding engineer and 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 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 engineering including:

- Software Development Life Cycle
- Team Management Advice (local/remote/hybrid)
- Resume Review and Career Advice
- Defining Requirements and Roadmapping
- Software Architecture Design
- Coding Standards and Practices
- System Performance, Scalability, Reliability
- Security and Compliance
- Agile Best Practices
- DevOps
- AWS

James proved to be an exceptional mentor with deep technical expertise. His background in cloud computing and infrastructure was particularly valuable, and he introduced me to several development tools that have become essential to my workflow. What stood out most was his ability to break down complex technical concepts and provide clear direction on implementation. James was responsive to questions and always prepared with relevant resources and documentation. His insights into DevOps practices and cloud architecture helped me approach problems from new angles. The mentorship sessions were well-structured and James adapted his teaching style to match my learning preferences. His real-world experience with scalable systems and modern development practices made the guidance highly relevant and applicable. I'd definitely recommend James to other developers, especially those working with cloud technologies or looking to improve their technical architecture skills. His mentorship style is direct, knowledgeable, and results-focused.

Working with James has been an excellent experience. He shared his knowledge generously and offered perspectives that really helped me grow in my role. Our conversations were always practical and focused, and I consistently came away with ideas I could put into action right away. I’m leaving the mentorship with much more clarity, confidence, and motivation about my path forward. It’s been great to have him as a mentor, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to grow. Thank you, James!
