Platform & MVP Development

Marketplaces, SaaS products, and internal platforms — concept to production

I've taken platforms from an empty repository to thousands of users and years of live operation. GigSocial — a two-sided influencer marketplace with escrow, digital wallets, dispute resolution, and global payouts — was built this way, and we're still partners years later. Whether you need an MVP to validate a market or a platform that has already found one, you get production-grade architecture from the first commit.

Marketplaces

  • Two-sided platforms: onboarding, listings, search, messaging, reviews
  • Escrow and digital wallet systems with complete transaction tracking
  • Stripe Connect and multi-rail payouts (card, ACH, MassPay) for sellers worldwide
  • Dispute resolution, commissions, and the operational tooling behind them

MVPs & SaaS

  • Rapid validation builds with architecture that survives success
  • Subscription billing, trials, and self-service customer portals from day one
  • Multi-tenancy, role-based access, admin dashboards, and analytics
  • AI-accelerated delivery: senior judgment at multiple-engineer throughput

Internal platforms & modernization

  • Custom ERPs and internal tools: inventory, order processing, bookkeeping, payroll
  • Legacy modernization — like migrating eifas's fintech platform from AngularJS to React with 100% uptime
  • Integrations with banking APIs, OCR, accounting, and shipping providers
  • Workflow automation that removes the manual steps your team hates

Stack & tools

  • Ruby on Rails
  • Next.js
  • React
  • PostgreSQL
  • Redis
  • Elasticsearch
  • Stripe Connect
  • AWS / Azure
