01 — vertical SaaS
EstateAI
Estate-administration platform for legal & fiduciary firms. Workflow automation, document generation and case tracking on a Cloudflare-native stack.
Senior full-stack engineer · Cape Town
Edge-native software,
built end to end.
I design, build and ship complete systems — frontend, backend, data and deployment — on a Cloudflare-native stack. No agency overhead, no handoffs. You work directly with the engineer writing the code.

Things I've designed and built
A few current builds — architecture, implementation and deployment, solo.
02 — payments
ProposalForge
Proposal & invoicing tool with Bitcoin-only settlement via BTCPay Server. Self-custodial, no third-party processor in the loop.
03 — consumer
CookStreak
A consumer cooking app built around habit and streaks — fast, offline-friendly and edge-served for low latency everywhere.
/ how I work
Pragmatic, secure, shipped.
I care about systems that are simple to reason about, cheap to run and safe by default. The stack keeps latency low and infrastructure boring — so the interesting work goes into the product.
01
Secure by default
Input validation, least-privilege access and sane defaults from the first commit — not bolted on later.
02
Edge-native
Workers, D1 and R2 keep compute and data close to the user. Globally fast without a fleet of servers to babysit.
03
End to end
One person across the whole stack means fewer interfaces to misalign and a tighter loop from idea to deploy.
04
Maintainable
Typed, tested and documented. Code a future maintainer — including future me — can actually live with.
Have something to build?
Open to contract and project-based engagements — greenfield builds, rescue work on existing codebases, or architecture you just need done properly the first time.
