Hire AWS Developer
7+ Years Building Production Systems | Backend Architecture & Full-Stack Solutions
I help teams design and maintain scalable AWS infrastructure, ensuring reliability, security, and cost efficiency across cloud environments.
AWS work I take on: greenfield cloud architecture for new SaaS products, cost reduction audits on existing accounts where bills have grown unexplained, Lambda-based serverless event processing, containerized workloads migrated to ECS or EKS, and CI/CD pipelines built on CodePipeline or GitHub Actions deploying to AWS. I also handle the security work that teams skip: IAM least-privilege policies, VPC network segmentation, CloudTrail audit logging, and Secrets Manager replacing hard-coded credentials. Everything is written as Terraform or CDK — no clicking in the console, no manual state.

AWS Projects Without the Runaway Bills and Security Gaps
AWS is infinitely flexible. That flexibility is what creates the problems.
EC2 instances running 24/7 for batch jobs. S3 buckets with no lifecycle rules. Data transfer costs nobody modeled. Bills 3× what they should be.
Reserved instances for predictable load, Spot for batch, S3 lifecycle rules, and CloudWatch billing alerts. Architecture reviewed against the AWS Cost Calculator before building.
'Just give it full access for now' repeated 20 times. Every service can read, write, and delete everything. One compromised credential is catastrophic.
Every role has exactly the permissions it needs — nothing more. Separate roles per service, conditions on sensitive actions, and a quarterly permission review built into the handoff.
One EC2 instance, one AZ, no load balancer. When it goes down — and it will — so does the entire product.
Application load balancer across two AZs, RDS Multi-AZ, and auto-scaling groups. Architecture that survives an AZ failure with zero manual intervention.
No CloudWatch alarms, no structured logs, no error budget. The first sign of a problem is a customer email.
Structured logs, metric alarms on error rate and latency, and CloudTrail for security events. You know about issues before your users do.
Full-time hiring takes 2–3 months of recruiting, interviews, and notice periods. Your roadmap sits idle.
No recruiting pipeline, no notice period. Reach out today and we can be writing code by end of week.
Account managers relay messages to developers you've never spoken to. Feedback takes days to reach the person building.
You talk directly to me — the person writing every line. Slack, email, or video. No middlemen, no message relay.

Let's Talk About Your ProjectHow It Works
A straightforward process built for fast starts and transparent delivery.
Tell Me About Your Project
Send the project form with your requirements, timeline, and what success looks like. I respond within 24 hours with questions and a scoping proposal.
Agree on Scope & Rate
We align on deliverables, timeline, and engagement model — hourly, fixed-price, or retainer. A signed agreement before any code is written.
AWS Account Audit + Terraform State Init
Existing account reviewed: IAM permissions, billing anomalies, unused resources, security findings from Trusted Advisor. Terraform state bucket and DynamoDB lock table initialized. Architecture diagram agreed before any infrastructure is provisioned.
Infrastructure as Code — Plan Before Apply
All AWS resources written in Terraform. Every change reviewed in terraform plan output before apply. No manual console changes — full IaC discipline.
Delivery: Documented Infrastructure + Runbook
Terraform state in S3, README with architecture diagram, CloudWatch dashboard configured, and a runbook for common ops tasks (scaling, restoring from backup, rotating secrets).
Transparent process, no surprises, no scope creep without discussion.
Code, IP, repository, deployment credentials — all yours from day one.
Daily or weekly async updates. You always know what's built, what's next, what's blocked.
Common Questions
How quickly can I start?
Within 24–48 hours after scope is agreed.
How do we communicate?
Directly — Slack, email, or video. No account managers or relay chains.
What if requirements change?
Changes discussed openly — scope and timeline impact agreed before proceeding.
Who owns the code?
You do. Full IP ownership transferred on delivery. No strings attached.

Pricing & Rates
Transparent, flexible pricing that scales with your project complexity and needs
What Affects Service Rate
Project Complexity
Simple CRUD apps differ from microservices architecture or real-time systems.
Technical Responsibility
Architecting systems costs more than executing well-defined tasks.
Time Commitment
Long-term engagements (retainers) may have different rates than hourly work.
Team Scaling
Managing additional developers or handling team coordination increases cost.
Ongoing Support
Maintenance, monitoring, and continuous improvements have different pricing models.
Engagement Models
Perfect for smaller projects, quick fixes, or when scope isn't fully defined. You pay only for time spent.
Clear scope, defined deliverables, and fixed price. Great when you know exactly what you need.
Ongoing monthly commitment for continuous work, maintenance, or on-call support. Lower rates for predictable work.
Pricing is always discussed upfront and aligned with scope. You'll know exactly what you're paying for and why. No unexpected bills, no vague fees.
Pricing Questions
Can I get a discount for longer engagements?
Yes. Retainer arrangements and long-term commitments typically have lower rates than hourly work, reflecting the stability and predictability.
Do you offer fixed-price projects?
Absolutely. If your project scope is clear and defined, i can agree on a fixed price upfront with specific deliverables and timeline.
What if scope changes mid-project?
We discuss and adjust transparently. Changes are tracked, impact is calculated, and i align on new pricing or timeline before proceeding.
Do rates go up for more complex work?
Yes. Complex architecture, real-time systems, or leadership responsibilities command higher rates. This reflects the skill and accountability required.
Do you offer payment plans or installments?
We can discuss flexible payment schedules for larger projects. Typically, installments align with project milestones and deliverables.
How do i determine the final rate?
During our initial conversation, I'll understand your project scope, complexity, and needs. Then i'll discuss what makes sense and agree on pricing.
