Work With Me

I occasionally take on selective advisory engagements in cloud security, AI governance, and infrastructure architecture.

This isn't my primary focus — I'm building products. But for the right project, I bring 13 years of enterprise experience to the table.

What I Help With

AWS Architecture Reviews & Well-Architected Assessments

13 years of AWS experience across Nasdaq, Atlassian, iZettle, and Länsförsäkringar. I review your architecture, identify security gaps, cost inefficiencies, and operational risks. You get a practical roadmap, not a 100-page PDF.

SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / NIS2 Compliance Readiness

I've implemented compliance frameworks at enterprise scale. I can help you get audit-ready without killing engineering velocity. Gap analysis, control implementation, policy templates, evidence collection automation.

AI Agent Security & Governance Frameworks

Building with AI agents? I can help you think through security implications, data governance, prompt injection risks, and practical safeguards. This is new territory — you need someone who's actually building with AI, not just reading whitepapers.

Cloud Security Strategy for Scaling Startups

You're growing fast. Enterprise customers are asking for SOC 2. You need to build security in without slowing down. I've been there. I can help you prioritize what matters and skip the security theater.

DevSecOps Pipeline Design & Implementation

SAST, SCA, container scanning, secrets detection, infrastructure-as-code scanning. I can help you design a DevSecOps pipeline that catches real issues without drowning your team in false positives.

How It Works

1

Short engagements only — 1-4 weeks. I'm not looking for long-term contracts. I help you solve a specific problem, then you run with it.

2

Remote, async-first — I work from Malaysia. Time zone differences mean async collaboration. If you need someone in your office 9-5, that's not me.

3

Practical, not theoretical — I don't write 100-page strategy documents. I give you actionable recommendations you can implement immediately.

Pricing

Advisory/Review: €200/hr

Fixed-price projects: Depends on scope (typically €3,000-€15,000 for well-defined engagements)

I prefer fixed-price for well-scoped projects. Hourly for exploratory work or reviews.

Note: I'm selective about advisory work. My priority is building products. I only take on engagements where I'm confident I can deliver real value in a short timeframe.
