Software Consultant — Code & Architecture Audit, Estimation, and Second Opinion
If you’re searching for a software consultant, code audit, architecture audit, or a reliable software development estimate, you probably need one thing: an independent view that reduces risk before you spend more time and money.
I help teams and founders get clarity on:
- what’s broken (and why)
- what it will take to fix it
- how to estimate scope, cost, and timeline without guessing
What I can help you with
1) Code audit / code review
For existing codebases:
- code quality and maintainability
- security risks (practical, not theoretical)
- performance bottlenecks
- technical debt map and priorities
2) Architecture review (system design)
For systems that “don’t scale” or are hard to change:
- architecture diagram (as‑is → to‑be)
- service boundaries / modularization
- database and integration risks
- scaling plan (what to do now vs later)
3) Estimation (cost & timeline)
If you have an idea, a spec, or partial requirements:
- scope decomposition (modules, flows, edge cases)
- estimate ranges + assumptions
- risk list (unknowns, dependencies)
- release plan (MVP → iterations)
4) Technical due diligence / second opinion
Before investing, buying, or taking over a project:
- quick audit of codebase and infrastructure
- risk assessment and red flags
- recommendations and remediation plan
Deliverables (what you get)
- audit report (issues → impact → priority)
- concrete action plan (what to do first)
- backlog/tasks you can hand to a team
- estimate ranges (not “one magic number”)
- optional call with Q&A for stakeholders
Typical timelines
- Quick review: 1–3 days (high‑signal findings)
- Deep audit: 1–2 weeks (with remediation plan)
FAQ
Can you do an audit without full access?
Yes. We can start with read‑only repo access and production metrics/logs.
Do you fix issues or only report them?
Both options: I can deliver a plan, or I can implement the fixes with your team.
Will this help me control an outsourced team?
Yes. An audit + acceptance criteria + review gates makes delivery measurable.
Can you estimate a project from a messy idea?
Yes — first we turn it into minimal requirements / technical specification, then estimate.
If you need a second opinion, estimation from requirements, or a stabilization plan — I’ll make it concrete and actionable.
