One person,
the whole stack.
Fourteen years of building, shipping and running software. I started as a developer in Yangon, ran the web platform and payment gateway at Wave Money, led engineering teams in Bangkok, and now work independently from Chiang Mai.
You deal with one person who writes the code, ships it safely and keeps the servers healthy. No hand-offs between an agency, a DevOps contractor and a hosting company, and no one to blame but me.
I work in the open: fixed prices agreed in writing, weekly demos, everything in accounts you own, and written documentation you keep when I'm gone. I use AI every day to work faster, with the same review gates I'd want on a team of people.
and yes, I answer WhatsApp.
The path.
