1 spot open · q3 2026
rent my brain
by the week,
not the year.
14+ years of building rails apps that ship. i drop into your codebase, your team, or your problem — and leave you with a working thing and a team that's smarter for it. no agencies, no middlemen, no "synergy."
things i can fix for you.
rails & hotwire surgery
your monolith is fine. it just needs a few good decisions. i help teams migrate to turbo, untangle stimulus, and stop dreading deploys.
voice & audio systems
stt, tts, voice cloning, real-time pipelines. whisper, xtts, deepgram, elevenlabs — i've shipped with them and know where the bodies are buried.
design system + rails
tailwind, daisyUI, view components, the works. you get a real design system, not a folder of mystery partials.
technical advising
cto-for-rent without the LinkedIn title. architecture reviews, hiring panels, founder therapy. 1–3 calls a month.
three shapes.
pick yours.
- deep dive into your codebase
- written report, prioritized
- 2× 60min review calls
- turnaround: 1 week
- 2 weeks full-time on your problem
- pair w/ your team, ship in your repo
- daily standups, weekly demos
- knowledge transfer baked in
- up to 4× calls / month
- async slack / email access
- roadmap, hiring, code reviews
- cancel any time after month 3
the process, undramatized.
you write.
quick form, no calendar gymnastics. tell me what's broken.
we talk.
30min discovery call. i'll tell you honestly if i'm the right fit.
scope & quote.
plain-language scope. fixed price. no surprise invoices.
i ship.
weekly demos. you see progress. you don't see drama.
things people actually ask.
do you work in person?+
remote first, rzeszów based. happy to travel for kickoff weeks or workshops. invoice the flights.
contracts & ndas?+
standard MSA + SOW per engagement. yours or mine — both are fine. NDAs signed within 24h.
do you do equity-only?+
no. cash up front, equity optionally on top for founder-stage projects i believe in.
what won't you build?+
surveillance tech, dark patterns, anything that makes the internet measurably worse. life's too short.
how soon can you start?+
next available slot is q3 2026. if you need sooner, ask anyway — i sometimes shuffle.
