Software & Cloud Engineer. I help businesses reduce costs, improve performance, latency, and stability in production systems.
Services
Cloud Infrastructure Performance Review
What I Offer
- Infrastructure and system architecture review
- Performance bottleneck analysis
- Resource usage and cost review
- Observability and monitoring assessment
- Actionable recommendations with clear priorities
How I Work
I work methodically, starting with visibility and data before touching anything.
Instead of trying to fix everything at once, I identify the few issues that create most of the cost, latency, or instability. The focus is on understanding where the system is inefficient and why.
Most teams get clear improvement directions within the first review, without committing to long-term work or risky changes.
I communicate findings clearly and stay available for questions during the review period.
€500 per review
One-time engagement
