I help startups and product teams launch, improve, and scale web products with Ruby on Rails.
For more than 12 years, I have worked across the full product lifecycle: turning early ideas into production-ready MVPs, rescuing difficult Rails applications, integrating external services, and building reliable AI-powered workflows.
I lead StableLoop, a Rails & AI product engineering studio. My approach combines AI-assisted delivery with senior engineering judgment: every change is designed, reviewed, tested, and shipped with long-term maintainability in mind.
- Turn a validated idea into a clear technical roadmap
- Build the product in small, reviewable releases
- Implement authentication, core business workflows, integrations, and deployment
- Get a usable first version in front of real customers quickly
- Recover and document an unfamiliar codebase
- Upgrade Rails and reduce technical debt
- Improve performance, test coverage, security, and reliability
- Stabilize a product before a new launch, investment round, or team expansion
- LLM and OpenAI API integrations
- RAG and knowledge-based assistants
- Document extraction and structured data workflows
- AI agents and business-process automation
- Human approval, guardrails, observability, and cost control
- Docker-based environments
- CI/CD pipelines and automated testing
- Background jobs and third-party API integrations
- Linux deployment, monitoring, and production troubleshooting
- 12+ years building Ruby on Rails applications
- 25+ web products delivered
- 35+ Upwork engagements and 8,000+ billed hours
- Full-stack development plus hands-on deployment and systems experience
- Direct communication with the senior engineer doing the work
- AI-accelerated execution without sacrificing code review, testing, or ownership
- Diagnose — understand the product, users, codebase, and business constraints.
- Plan — define a practical roadmap made of small releases and clear specifications.
- Build — implement each feature in a focused pull request with tests and documentation.
- Verify — review quality, security, performance, and acceptance criteria.
- Ship — merge through CI/CD and deploy with a repeatable process.
You keep full ownership of the code, infrastructure, and documentation. No lock-in.

If you need to launch an MVP, rescue an existing Rails product, or add production-ready AI features, I would be happy to discuss the project.
