Startup MVP Development
Turn your concept into a focused first version you can put in front of real users, test, learn from and improve.
SOFTWARE ENGINEERING · PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT · TECHNICAL PARTNERSHIP
Have an idea for a platform, SaaS product, mobile app backend, or business system? I help founders and businesses turn rough ideas into reliable software — from the first technical plan to a working product people can use.
A clear scope. A practical plan. Payments tied to agreed milestones.
You don't need to figure out every technical detail before reaching out. Tell me what you want to achieve; we'll work out the right way to build it.
Turn your concept into a focused first version you can put in front of real users, test, learn from and improve.
Replace repetitive manual work with software designed around the way your business actually operates.
Build subscription platforms, marketplaces, portals and multi-user products with a foundation ready to evolve.
Build or strengthen the systems behind your product: APIs, integrations, infrastructure, deployment and performance.
For suitable projects, we can start with a $500 kickoff payment and split the remaining fee across clearly defined milestones. The kickoff payment is part of the agreed project price — not an extra charge.
Discuss Your Project ↗We align on the idea, goals, scope and technical direction. The payment is credited toward the total project fee.
Development begins against the agreed scope. You receive progress updates and reviewable work at the agreed checkpoints.
We test the agreed features, address in-scope feedback and prepare the product for delivery.
The remaining balance is paid according to the contract, then the agreed source code, access and documentation are handed over.
Every project gets its own written proposal, milestone amounts, deliverables and timeline before work starts. The exact payment schedule may differ by project.
Good software starts with understanding the problem. Here's what working together generally looks like.
Share the problem you're solving, who it's for and what success should look like. You can come with a rough idea — that's fine.
We'll agree on the features, priorities, technical approach, timeline, budget and what is outside the scope.
I develop in planned stages, keep you informed and make sure you can review progress against the agreed deliverables.
We validate the product, complete the agreed handover and discuss what makes sense for the next stage.
Here are examples of platforms I've worked on. They give you a feel for the kind of real-world products and systems I understand.

One important thing: the $500 kickoff is not a promise to build an entire product for $500. It's the first payment toward a properly scoped engagement. I'll recommend a realistic plan before you commit to the full build.
No. The $500 is a kickoff payment credited toward the total project fee. The complete price depends on the features, complexity, integrations and timeline. You'll receive a proposal before the full project begins.
Not at all. A clear explanation of the problem and the outcome you're looking for is enough to start a conversation. We can define the technical scope together.
Payments are divided into milestones and documented in the project agreement. Each milestone identifies its deliverables, amount and review or acceptance process.
Yes. Projects can be handled remotely, with communication, delivery expectations and payment terms agreed in writing before work starts.
Ownership and handover terms are stated in the agreement. For a standard paid project, the agreed project-specific deliverables are transferred as specified after the required payments are completed. Pre-existing tools and third-party components remain subject to their applicable licences.
Potentially, but that is a different arrangement from hiring me for a normal development project. Any long-term technical partnership, compensation or equity would need separate discussions and formal legal documentation.
Tell me a little about the idea, the problem it solves and where you are in the process. I'll get back to you so we can work out whether it's a good fit and what the next step should be.
