Independent consulting for founders and engineering teams

Build infrastructure that lets your team ship faster.

I help startups and growing teams clean up AWS, Terraform, CI/CD, and manual workflows — then turn them into scalable systems using practical DevOps, platform engineering, and AI automation.

When to bring me in

Your team should not be slowed down by fragile deployments, confusing AWS accounts, Terraform drift, manual release steps, or AI experiments that never become useful systems.

Deployments are slow, risky, or inconsistent
AWS costs are rising and ownership is unclear
Terraform exists, but the structure is painful
CI/CD is brittle, manual, or missing guardrails
AI ideas are stuck as demos instead of workflows
The team needs staff-level infrastructure judgment before hiring full-time
Staff-level infrastructure judgment
AWS + Terraform hands-on delivery
AI automation practical, approval-gated systems

How engagements work

Every engagement is designed to create clarity, reduce risk, and leave behind artifacts your team can actually use.

01

Fit call

We clarify the business problem, urgency, constraints, and whether there is a fit.

02

Diagnostic or sprint

I review the system and turn vague infrastructure pain into a concrete plan or scoped implementation.

03

Build or hand off

I either implement the solution directly or leave your team with clear architecture, runbooks, and next steps.

About Moses

Staff-level infrastructure engineer. Builder. AI automation operator.

I work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, delivery systems, and applied AI. I can help you reason about architecture, fix broken delivery paths, build the foundation, and document the handoff so your team is stronger after the engagement.

FAQ

Do you only advise, or do you implement?

Both. I can provide strategy, architecture, code/infra review, and hands-on implementation depending on the scope.

Do you work hourly?

I prefer fixed-scope outcomes: health checks, audits, sprints, builds, and retainers. Hourly blocks can work for existing clients or focused advisory sessions.

Can you help with AI automation?

Yes, especially when the automation needs to connect to real systems: docs, APIs, repos, cloud infrastructure, internal tools, and approval workflows.

Can you work with my existing team?

Yes. Many engagements are designed to create a clean handoff, train the team, or unblock existing engineers.

If infrastructure or operations are slowing the business down, let’s talk.

Send a short note with what is stuck, what systems are involved, and what deadline matters.
