Real fixes I've delivered

I'm putting together anonymised war stories and case studies with the gritty details, numbers, and outcomes. They'll show up here as I get them ready.

For now, here's a rundown of the typical chaos I've turned around for clients over the years. If one (or more) of these sounds painfully familiar, we should talk.

Disasters I fix most often

The media scale-up with quarterly deploys only
120 people, digital content platform, post-Series C. Endless planning killed velocity; public-facing features stalled for months amid tool sprawl.
The regulated healthtech that couldn't audit
80 people, logistics SaaS, GDPR-heavy. No ISMS, compliance ate 60% of dev time, blocking new client onboardings.
The post-acquisition fintech integrator
150 people, trading platform, recent buyout. Clashing cultures and systems dropped velocity 50%, key talent fleeing.
The airport-adjacent digital product blocker
200 people, infrastructure tech, public services. Manual deploys and siloed teams meant zero predictability for stakeholder products.
The community SaaS with CI/CD voids
90 people, B2B platform, growth phase. Teams argued processes forever; no automation led to hero-mode burnouts.
The assessment platform architecture mess
50 people, psych tech, early scale. Initial builds lacked structure, causing constant rewrites and slow feature rolls.
The hosting provider's automation nightmare
100 people, IaaS firm. Abuse handling and ops were manual chaos, scaling issues threatening uptime.

I've fixed every single one of these multiple times; usually in 3-6 months as a focused consultant or interim CTO. Typical outcomes are 2-4x faster delivery, 30-60% headcount efficiency gain, and predictable shipping without the heroics.
