01

What you get

  • An honest picture of the real state of the system — without the usual political editing from the internal team.
  • Risks prioritized by impact × probability, not by how loud they are in the backlog.
  • A cost-benefit estimate for each remediation: what to fix now, what can wait, what to ignore.
  • A document you can defend before the board, an investor or a buyer in a due diligence.

How I work

  1. 01
    Access
    Onboarding to the repo, dashboards, runbooks and tooling. Read access is enough; never production.
  2. 02
    Inspection
    Code, infrastructure, observability, security, team and processes. Interviews with tech leads and product owners.
  3. 03
    Synthesis
    A categorized map of findings: architecture, security, scalability, quality, team, vendor lock-in and cost.
  4. 04
    Delivery
    A written report + a presentation session with the leadership team or investor. Q&A support if needed.
03

Who it's for

Technical due diligence
You're about to invest in, buy or sell a company and you need a fast, independent technical read.
CTO transition
A new CTO is coming in and needs an objective map of the terrain before proposing changes.
Quarterly reset
The team has been building heads-down for 18+ months. An outside view sharpens the priorities.

Typical use cases

  • An audit ahead of a Series B funding round — a deliverable for the data room.
  • A diagnosis of a SaaS platform before post-acquisition integration.
  • An analysis of cloud cost and vendor lock-in with a 12-month optimization plan.

Frequently asked questions

  1. Q01
    How long does it take?
    Between 2 and 4 weeks depending on the size and maturity of the system. A 15-person startup: 2 weeks. A platform with 200+ engineers: 4 weeks with an optional extension.
  2. Q02
    Do I need to tell the team?
    Yes. The audit is richer with the internal team's collaboration; I never work behind their backs. I recommend framing the exercise as a tool, not as an assessment of individuals.
  3. Q03
    Do you sign enhanced confidentiality terms?
    NDA and information-retention agreement, standard in due diligence. All material is destroyed at the close of the engagement except the final report, which is yours.
