Independent technology advisory
Clear technical direction, when it matters most.
Pragmatic, senior-level guidance on architecture, cloud, and AI — for founders, engineering leaders, and investors who need decisions they can trust, not another slide deck.
Part of dunera.dev
Services
Focused engagements, built around your hardest problems.
Fractional CTO
Hands-on technical leadership for startups and growing teams — roadmap, hiring, architecture, and engineering culture without a full-time hire.
Architecture Review
An independent, structured assessment of your system's design, scalability, and failure modes — with a prioritized, actionable improvement plan.
AI & LLM Strategy
Cut through the hype. Identify where AI genuinely moves the needle for your product, then design and validate the integration path.
Cloud & Platform
Cloud architecture, cost optimization, and platform engineering guidance — build infrastructure your team can actually operate.
Engineering Due Diligence
Technical assessments for investors and acquirers — codebase health, team capability, scalability risk, and hidden liabilities.
Delivery & Process
Unblock stalled projects. Diagnose delivery bottlenecks, right-size process, and get your roadmap moving again.
Approach
A simple process that respects your time.
Listen
Every engagement starts with understanding — your product, your constraints, your team. No boilerplate recommendations.
Assess
A focused, time-boxed review of the systems and decisions that matter. Evidence first, opinions second.
Advise
Clear, prioritized recommendations you can act on immediately — written for both engineers and executives.
Support
Advice is only useful if it ships. I stay engaged through implementation, adjusting course as reality unfolds.
About
Advice from someone who still ships.
Dunera Advisory is the consulting practice behind dunera.dev. After years of building and operating production systems — from early startup MVPs to cloud platforms serving real scale — the pattern is clear: most technical problems are decision problems. The right call at the right moment saves months.
Engagements are deliberately small in number and high in attention. You work directly with the person doing the analysis — no handoffs, no junior staff, no leverage model.
