System and architecture diagnosis for failure modes, cost blowups, and orchestration gaps. Written findings, prioritized fixes. No slide deck.
Agentic AI Integrations and Augmentation
Design and build a multi-agent system for your highest-leverage problem. Production-ready, orchestrated, with guardrails. When the engagement wraps, you own the deliverables.
Fractional Advisory
Architecture reviews, infrastructure direction, critical-path unblocking, agent system design. Executive weight when you need it. Engineering depth when you ship.
I’ve done this before. A lot.
I’ve been the CTO. The VP Engineering. The Head of AI. I’ve shipped production systems in infrastructure, data, mobile, and multi-agent AI: including a multi-agent infrastructure running right now at codegrit.dev with no vendor lock. I know which decisions pay off and which ones cost you six months.
I keep my load light so each engagement gets real weight. If there’s fit, we’ll know in 15 minutes.

Where to start.
Architectural Assessment
Fixed Scope. One Week.
You don't know what's about to break. Or what's quietly costing you.
One week, fixed scope. I look at your system and tell you what’s going to break, what’s going to cost you, and where the orchestration is leaky.
I’ll trace your data paths, check your topology, and give you a written report: fix this, watch that, leave this alone, with time and cost estimates for each item.
Dr. John T. Prince called him a cloud wizard who delivered 99.99% uptime. That's the technical judgment you get: 2018 Innovator of the Year, architect behind Crux Connect's 75% infrastructure cost reduction.
Agentic AI Integrations and Augmentation
Production-Ready. Clear Deliverable Ownership.
You've seen the AI demos. You're still waiting on the ones that ship.
Fixed price. I design and build a multi-agent system for the problem costing you the most right now. When the engagement wraps, you own the deliverables.
We start with the constraint that matters most. Then I design the agent topology, wire up the orchestration, and ship something that works. You leave with code, docs, and enough context to keep moving.

Fractional Advisory
Intentional. Limited.
Your advisors fill your calendar. You need someone who fills your gaps.
I keep my load light so each engagement gets real weight. 10–15 hours a month, give or take. Architecture reviews, infrastructure direction, whatever’s most useful that week. Sometimes I’m steering, sometimes I’m merging PRs. It’s not a retainer for talk.
You get real engineering judgment, not a scheduled status update.
Shane Smit calls him a leader who genuinely develops his people. Twenty-five years of engineering leadership across Crux Connect, Voze, MX: from CTO to VP Engineering to Data Infrastructure Manager. You get the judgment and the people skills.

How this works.
1
15-minute fit check
We talk about what you’re building, where you’re stuck, and what’s at stake. If I can’t help, I’ll say so, and I’ll usually point you to someone better.
2
Scoped proposal
If there’s fit, you get a written scope. Fixed price for defined work, retainer terms for advisory. No discovery workshop upsell. Just a straight answer.
3
Ship
We start. You get working output or honest steering, whichever the situation needs.
No Pitch Deck
No pitch deck, no long sales cycle. If there’s fit, we’ll know in fifteen minutes and you’ll have a written scope before we start.
DISCLAIMER
— codegrit.dev retains reusable tools, frameworks, methods, templates, prompts, libraries, and background IP unless expressly assigned.
— A fit check or introductory conversation does not create a client relationship.
— Work begins only after a written scope, agreement, or statement of work is accepted.
Want to talk?
The first conversation is free. If there’s fit, we’ll know in 15 minutes. If not, I’ll tell you that too, and I’ll usually point you to what you actually need.
