Engineering across the stack

From greenfield products to legacy rescue missions — focused, pragmatic, and built to last.

Product engineering

End-to-end product builds — web and mobile. From a Figma file to a deployed, monitored, paying product. Modern stacks, sensible choices, no resume-driven architecture.

Next.jsReact NativeTypeScript

APIs & backends

Reliable services that scale with you. Clean REST/GraphQL APIs, sane database schemas, observability that survives 3 a.m.

NodePythonPostgreSQL

Cloud & DevOps

CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, container orchestration. Ship faster without the firefights.

AWSDockerTerraform

AI integration

LLM features that actually ship: retrieval, agents, evals, cost control. Pragmatic, not hype-driven.

OpenAIAnthropicRAG

Consulting & audits

Independent architecture review, performance audits, security spot-checks, mentoring. Fresh eyes on a stuck problem.

ArchitecturePerformanceMentoring

Legacy rescue

Inherited a codebase that nobody understands? Untangle it, document it, and bring it back to a place where shipping feels normal again.

How I actually work

Four steps. No surprises, no scope creep, no theatre.

01

Discovery

Free 30-minute call. I listen, ask annoying questions, and send a written proposal within 48 hours — scope, timeline, fee, assumptions.

02

Design & RFC

Quick architecture notes and key UI surfaces in Figma. We agree on a sharp first milestone before any production code is written.

03

Build & demo

Weekly demo of working software in your hands — never just slides. You own the repo from commit #1, code is reviewable from day one.

04

Ship & support

Deploy, monitor, hand off. Optional retainer for ongoing work — fixes, features, or a steady fractional-CTO seat.

// engagements

How to hire me

Three honest patterns — pick the one that fits your problem.

Fixed scope

The MVP build

A working product in 6–8 weeks. Sharp scope, fixed price, weekly demos. Ideal for founders who need to validate fast, or teams who need a real prototype rather than a Figma fantasy.

  • Discovery → ship in 60 days
  • Fixed price, no hourly drift
  • You own the code
Diagnostic

The rescue mission

Inherited a stalled project or a system nobody dares touch? A 2–3 week deep dive: audit, write the playbook, fix the worst pain, train your team to take it forward.

  • Audit report + roadmap
  • Critical fixes shipped
  • Knowledge transfer
Ongoing

Fractional CTO

A steady technical partner — 1–2 days a week. Architecture, hiring help, code reviews, on-call coverage. For pre-Series-A founders who need senior eyes without a full-time salary.

  • Monthly retainer
  • 1–2 days / week
  • Architecture + reviews
// about

Engineer first. Founder second. Human always.

DevAdy is the independent practice of a software engineer, registered as an Algerian auto-entrepreneur.

A decade of writing software — for startups, scale-ups, and a couple of teams I shouldn't name yet. Specialty: software engineering. Bias: ship something small that works over something big that doesn't.

Honest scoping. Weekly demos. No surprises on the invoice. Your code lives in your repo from commit #1.

Common questions

If yours isn't here, drop it in the contact form below — I'll answer it.

How do you charge?
Fixed price for scoped projects (most common). Day rate for ongoing work or fractional-CTO engagements. Always written upfront — no hourly invoices that drift.
What is your turnaround?
A written proposal within 48 hours of our first call. Most projects start within 1–2 weeks. Rescue missions can start same-week if it is genuinely urgent.
Do you work with non-technical founders?
Yes — most of my clients are. I explain trade-offs in plain language, demo working software weekly, and never hide behind jargon.
What time zone do you work in?
UTC+1. I cover European working hours fully and overlap with US East-coast mornings. Asia-Pacific overlaps on evenings if you need it.
What about NDAs and IP ownership?
Happy to sign mutual NDAs. You own all code, designs, and deliverables outright from day one — no licensing strings, no escrow nonsense.
Can I see code samples?
Yes — on request, with prior clients' NDAs respected. A 20-minute screen-share walkthrough usually beats anonymized snippets for showing real judgment.

Got something to build?
