Engagement model

How we would work together

  1. Step 1

    Discovery call

    30 minutes. Your product, your backlog, and where I can help first.

  2. Step 2

    Paid starter sprint

    1 to 2 weeks on a real ticket, so you judge the work, not a pitch.

  3. Step 3

    Monthly retainer

    20 to 30 hrs/week as a B2B contractor, with direct ticket ownership.
