Product Architecture Review
I provide comprehensive architecture reviews that evaluate system design, scalability, maintainability, and technical decision-making – focusing on architectural judgment rather than framework-specific details.
The Approach
What I Address
Web and SaaS applications often evolve organically, leading to architectural inconsistencies, scalability bottlenecks, and technical debt that becomes expensive to address later.
Without clear architectural guidance, teams make decisions in isolation, leading to systems that are hard to maintain, scale poorly, or require significant refactoring as they grow.
How I Work
I conduct comprehensive architecture reviews that evaluate your system from multiple perspectives:
- Assess overall system design, component boundaries, and data flow
- Evaluate scalability patterns, performance characteristics, and resource utilization
- Review technical decision-making processes and architectural consistency
The Value
Outcomes
- Clear understanding of architectural strengths and weaknesses
- Prioritized roadmap for addressing technical risks and improvements
- Validated architectural decisions and confidence in system design
- Improved team alignment on technical direction and standards
Deliverables
- Architecture review report with findings and recommendations
- Risk assessment and prioritization matrix
- Actionable improvement roadmap with effort estimates
- Documentation of architectural patterns and anti-patterns identified
- Follow-up consultation to discuss findings and implementation planning
The Fit
Who This Is For
Founders building or scaling web/SaaS products, engineering teams seeking independent assessment, CTOs ensuring architectural soundness, and product teams validating technical feasibility.
This applies to web applications and SaaS platforms at any stage (MVP to scale-up), systems experiencing growth pains, products preparing for significant expansion, or codebases where technical debt impacts velocity.
Ideal timing includes before major feature development, when experiencing scalability issues, during technical due diligence, when onboarding senior engineers, or as part of regular architectural health checks.
Why Architecture Reviews Matter
Many teams build systems without clear architectural guidance, leading to technical debt, scalability bottlenecks, and costly refactoring later. An architecture review provides an independent, senior-level assessment of your system's design – identifying risks, validating decisions, and providing actionable recommendations for improvement. This is about architectural judgment and strategic thinking, not framework-specific implementation details.
