Modernizing a Legacy Platform

Products that work. Teams that win.

I partner with founders and startups to work both in and on the business: ideating and shipping high-quality projects, and building systems that transform how your business operates. I’ve been compared to a self-contained agency disguised as a human (I just call it doing cool stuff).

About me

I’m Max — a software engineer, designer, and 5x founder. For more than 15 years, I’ve been building products, teams, and companies from the ground up. Along the way, I’ve helped over 500 developers and designers find their place in high-growth startups and learned what it really takes to ship things that last.

I care about design that makes sense, code that scales, and people who love what they build. Most of my work today lives at the intersection of product, AI, and startup execution — where good ideas turn into real traction.
