A Senior Developer in Your Corner
Your team is building fast with AI. But there are moments — architecture decisions, direction checks, code that feels wrong — where you want experienced eyes. Not a consulting engagement. Just a senior developer you can talk to.
What conversations look like
Architecture Decision
"We're choosing between a monolith and microservices. The team wants microservices because it's what they've read about, but we're only five developers."
This is exactly the kind of decision that costs six months if you get it wrong. Not because microservices are bad, but because the overhead of distributed systems with a small team can quietly kill momentum.
Fracsen insight
Start with a well-structured monolith. Extract services only when you have a specific scaling problem. I'll help draw the boundaries so extracting later is straightforward.
Direction Check
"Our junior devs are using AI to generate code, but I'm not sure the output is good. I can't review everything myself."
This is the new normal — and it's not bad. AI-generated code is usually fine for straightforward tasks. The risk is in the architectural decisions AI makes silently: dependency choices, error handling patterns, data modelling.
Fracsen insight
Let's set up review gates at the right points. Not every PR, but every structural decision. I'll teach your team what to watch for so they can self-review the routine stuff.
Technical Translation
"The developers say we need to 'refactor the data layer' and it will take three months. I don't know if that's right."
It might be right. It might be a week of focused work that's been estimated with padding because no one wants to commit. Or it might genuinely be three months because of accumulated decisions.
Fracsen insight
I'll look at the codebase and give you an honest assessment — what actually needs to change, what's fine as-is, and a realistic timeline. No jargon, no padding.
How it works
- Async access Message me when something comes up. I respond within a working day, often faster. No scheduling overhead for quick questions.
- Regular check-ins Structured conversations — typically weekly or fortnightly — where we review what's been built, what's coming, and what needs attention.
- Architecture reviews When you're making a significant technical decision, I'll review the options and give you a clear recommendation with reasoning.
- Developer support Your team can reach out directly. Code reviews, pair debugging, guidance on approach — available as part of the engagement.
