Overview

What this engagement is

An hour is ample for a real architecture problem when the groundwork is done beforehand. You share diagrams, repository access or a written account of the situation, and we study it before the call rather than reacting on the spot. The hour itself is spent on the decision in front of you, whether that is breaking up a monolith, getting ahead of a scaling limit you can already see, or judging if the platform you are evaluating is the right fit. Afterwards you receive the recording and written notes with a recommendation you can act on.

A strong fit for

  • Teams facing a major architecture decision without a senior voice in the room
  • Founders weighing a build-versus-buy choice
  • Engineering leads who want their plan challenged before committing

What we need from you

  • Any existing documentation, plus read access to code where relevant
  • A clear statement of the decision you need to make
  • The right people on the call, including whoever makes the final decision

You share these through the brief that opens in your client dashboard once payment is confirmed. The timeline starts when they arrive.
