Most companies call a coroner too late.

By the time the roadmap flatlines, the cause of death has usually been in the body for years. I examine living systems the way I examine dead ones — and put the findings in writing.

01
FULL AUTOPSY

A 2–4 week forensic examination of your engineering organization: architecture, delivery pipeline, ownership boundaries, and the informal systems nobody wrote down. You receive a written report: cause of death (or impairment), contributing factors, and a sequenced remediation plan your team can execute without me.

DURATION — 2–4 WEEKS
FORMAT — FIXED FEE
DELIVERABLE — WRITTEN REPORT
BEST FOR — "WHERE IS THE TIME GOING?"
02
RESUSCITATION

Hands-on revival for systems with a fading pulse. I implement the architecture from the autopsy findings — boundary extraction, pipeline surgery, ownership restructuring — working inside your team, not above it. Engagements end when the vitals hold on their own.

DURATION — 2–6 MONTHS
FORMAT — MONTHLY RETAINER
DELIVERABLE — A STABLE PULSE
BEST FOR — "WE KNOW. HELP US FIX IT."
03
SECOND OPINION

Your team already has a diagnosis — a rewrite proposal, a re-org, a platform migration. Before you operate, I examine the evidence and either confirm the diagnosis, contest it, or find what the first examination missed. One week. Findings in writing, suitable for the board.

DURATION — 1 WEEK
FORMAT — FIXED FEE
DELIVERABLE — WRITTEN OPINION
BEST FOR — "ARE WE ABOUT TO MAKE IT WORSE?"
Intake

Report a death. Or a bad feeling.

Two paragraphs about the patient — what it does, when the symptoms started, what you've tried.
