Mentoring
Need a little help? Accelerate your project (or your career) with a bit of mentoring. Here are areas in which other teams and individuals have found my experience (or that of my team at NimblePros) helpful:
Software Architecture
Design of a new system or redesign of an existing one. Focus on the trade-offs most important to your stakeholders. Every architecture decision involves trade-offs - if you don’t know what they are, you’re making them by default. Learn when to embrace microservices, when to use a modular monolith, and when to leverage clean architecture, vertical slide architecture, or something else entirely to suit your needs!
Coding Practices
This is a huge umbrella of topics, but I’m experienced with the following:
Design Patterns, Refactoring, Testing and Testability, Separation of Concerns, Loose Coupling, SOLID Principles, identifying and eliminating code smells, and more.
Domain-Driven Design
Event storming, modeling the domain, keeping contexts bounded, identifying aggregates and entities, implementing repositories and specifications, upgrading primitives to value objects, wiring up domain events.
Lean and Kanban
Helping visualize work using a variety of tools (both high and low tech), maximizing flow, measuring and improving cycle time.
Whether you’re a team or an individual, I’m available to remotely work with you to help you build software you can take pride in (note that these rates are most afforable by teams - see devBetter below for a more affordable individual option).

In addition to dedicated mentoring, I also have a group coaching program designed to help developers accelerate their careers. We meet weekly and have an ongoing discussion/chat platform. New members have full access to all recorded sessions and notes. Learn more at devBetter.com.
