I integrate AI capabilities into infrastructure I already manage, rather than building AI products from scratch. My own site runs a chat application built natively on Cloudflare Workers AI, calling models directly with no external API dependency, backed by R2 for storage and D1 as the data layer. If you need a generative AI feature added to an existing application, deployed on infrastructure I can also secure and maintain, that's the work. This is infrastructure-level AI integration specifically, not conversational AI product design or chatbot strategy consulting.

I build and repair WooCommerce stores specifically: checkout flow architecture, payment gateway integration and troubleshooting, and the shopping cart and CMS configuration underneath a store that needs to complete transactions reliably. This is the same technical foundation as my Website Creation and Administration services, listed separately here for WooCommerce and online payment work specifically. I work in WooCommerce and WordPress-based commerce. Shopify, Magento, and other platforms are outside this scope.

I design and build production-grade cloud infrastructure on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, for regulated businesses and high-growth technology teams that cannot afford downtime or a failed audit. Everything is delivered as version-controlled infrastructure as code, primarily Terraform, rather than console configuration that only works until someone forgets why it was set up that way. This covers full architecture design and migration, multi-account landing zones, Kubernetes platform engineering, and cloud cost optimization audits that identify exactly where spend is going and what it would take to reduce it. Security and cost discipline are built into the design from the first resource, not retrofitted afterward: least-privilege access, encryption at rest and in transit, centralized logging, and a monthly cost estimate before anything is created. Work is delivered directly by me, not handed to a delivery team you never speak with.

My software development work sits inside infrastructure and delivery: Terraform modules, deployment automation, CI/CD pipeline engineering, and the scripts and workflows that move code from a repository into production safely and repeatably. This is Agile-run automation and infrastructure-as-code work specifically, not custom application or product development. If your team needs the delivery pipeline and automation layer built or repaired, that's where this fits.

I help regulated businesses prepare their cloud infrastructure for SOC 2 and ISO 27001 technical requirements, and secure the email infrastructure that sits underneath every phishing and domain-spoofing risk. This covers cloud security architecture (IAM policy design, network segmentation, encryption, and logging), technical readiness assessments ahead of a formal compliance audit, and email authentication, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, configured correctly and rolled out in staged enforcement so legitimate mail is never blocked in the process. This is infrastructure and compliance security specifically, not network hardware consulting or penetration testing, and I'll tell you plainly if a request falls outside that scope rather than take on work I can't deliver at the standard I hold myself to.
