Services · Hermosillo, Mexico

Most work with me follows the same path.

An assessment shows you where you stand. If you want the findings fixed rather than filed, I do the work. And if you want someone senior keeping watch afterwards, I stay on monthly. You can start at any step.

How we work together

Assessment

Step one · Where most clients start · 2–3 weeks · fixed fee

Two to three weeks inside your technology operation, yours or one you're about to buy. It ends with a written report: an executive summary a CEO will read, findings precise enough for an engineer to act on, and a prioritized roadmap with effort and cost against each item, plus a working session with your team. Fixed fee, agreed before any work begins.

Implementation

Step two · When you want the findings fixed, not filed · fixed fee per project

I do the work on the roadmap myself. No account manager, no junior team learning in your environment. Scoped from the assessment, or directly if you already know what needs doing.

Monthly advisory

Step three · For companies without a senior technology lead in-house · monthly

A fixed block of hours each month: reviewing decisions and vendors, unblocking your team, and keeping the roadmap moving. Senior technology leadership without a full-time hire. Monthly fee, agreed up front.

What I work on

01 · For acquirers and investors

Technical due diligence

What you're actually buying: architecture, security posture, technical debt with a remediation cost attached, cloud and vendor costs, key-person risk. A red-flag summary written for someone deciding whether to sign.

02 · For leadership teams asked "what's our AI plan?"

AI enablement and adoption

Where AI actually earns its place in your operation: use cases ranked by value and risk, data readiness, tooling and vendor choices, and guardrails your team follows. A plan your people adopt, not a graveyard of pilots.

03 · For companies that grew faster than their security

Security and compliance

Security best practices sized to your company: access, vendors, backups and incidents, with policies your team actually follows. When it makes sense, preparation for SOC 2: gap analysis against the Trust Services Criteria, a remediation plan, and guidance on choosing an auditor.

04 · For companies whose uptime is costing them customers

Reliability and operations

Incident-pattern analysis, SLOs, on-call structure and load, monitoring gaps, change management, backup and recovery. What's actually causing your outages, rather than what everyone assumes is causing them.

05 · For US companies building, or struggling with, a team in Mexico

Nearshore engineering

Employment structure, city and talent-market selection, compensation benchmarks, hiring and ramp plan, retention. I built an operations centre in Hermosillo from its first hire into a core delivery hub. I know where this goes wrong because I've been there when it did.

06 · For companies that have merged with or acquired another

Platform consolidation

Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 and Slack in one environment: mail, domains, accounts and permissions, with a rollback path and a runbook your team can actually use.

07 · For leadership teams that don't trust their own numbers

Data and analytics

Clear metric definitions, data pipelines that hold, and dashboards leadership can decide from. From the data warehouse to the report.

Not on the list? I've worked across many technologies and very different projects. If your need is something else, let's talk. For programs that need a full team, I'll introduce you to people who do that work full time. I'd rather refer the rest than do it half-well.

Get in touch

Working arrangement

I work remotely from Hermosillo, Mexico, in English or Spanish. Standard vendor invoice: no employer of record, no entity setup. I take a limited number of engagements at a time.

Assessments and projects are fixed-fee, and the fee is agreed before any work begins.

A short call usually clarifies where to start, what it would cover, and what it would cost.

No obligation. And if I'm not the right fit, I'll say so.
