Which of these sounds like your business?

Here are some situations I can help with.

  • “Our team spends hours on repetitive work.”

    Copying details from emails and documents, preparing the same reports every week, typing the same thing into different places.

  • “Our old system still runs the business, but it's hard to change.”

    Small updates take weeks, and fixing one thing breaks something else.

  • “We need someone we trust to guide the technical side.”

    You have decisions to make about software, suppliers or costs, and want an experienced person on your side before you commit.

  • “Nobody is looking after our website and systems.”

    Updates, renewals and logins are left alone until something stops working or gets hacked.

  • “We want to use AI, but don't know where to start.”

    Everyone is talking about it, but you're not sure what it would do for your business, or what could go wrong.

  • “We're worried about customer details getting out.”

    You keep names, phone numbers or payment details, but aren't sure who can see them or how well they're protected.

Next: how I can help

How I can help

AI and automation
Find sensible uses for AI and automate repetitive work: pulling information out of documents, internal assistants that search your own files, and AI features added to the software you already use. People stay in charge of the steps that matter.
Security and risk
Find practical risks and fix them within an agreed scope: checking your website and systems for weak spots, locking down your cloud hosting, controlling who can log in and see what, and limiting what information AI can see, with checks before its work is used.
Software and upgrades
Websites and apps built around how you work, upgrades for older systems, connecting the tools you already use, and a part-time senior technical lead when you need one.

What we cover on the free call

  1. Your current setup

    How your business runs today: the systems, the spreadsheets and the steps that take too long.

  2. What's worth fixing

    Which problems to deal with first, and which can wait or be left alone.

  3. A clear next step

    Something you can do yourself, with another provider or with me. You decide.

Next: how we can work together

Start with the help you need.

A review and a plan
Understand your current setup, the options available and what to prioritise.
A specific piece of work
Get an agreed project delivered, whether that's using AI to handle paperwork, a security check, connecting two systems or upgrading an old one.
Ongoing technical support
Arrange regular maintenance, improvements and advice for the systems we agree to cover.

We start with a conversation about your goals and what's happening today. I recommend what to do first, then we agree what's included, what you'll get and the fees before work begins. If you want ongoing help after that, we can agree it separately.

Next: who you'll work with

Hi, I'm Teon.

I've spent 20+ years in software engineering, combining hands-on development with technical leadership across web and iOS projects.

I co-founded one digital agency, worked in several others, and built software and mobile app businesses. That experience helps me look at software from both the engineering and business sides.

I'm a Zend Certified Engineer and a Laravel Certified Developer, with a background in PHP, Laravel, native iOS and AWS.

Today I help businesses use AI safely and keep their websites, apps and cloud hosting secure.

You'll work directly with me. Depending on the project, I can build the solution, guide the technical work or help coordinate with your existing providers.

Outside client work, I enjoy building open-source software and exploring ideas in electronics. I like understanding how things work and finding ways to make them better.

Next: common questions

Common questions

Is the first call really free?

Yes. The 20-minute call costs nothing and doesn't commit you to anything. If you want to go further, I'll explain the options and fees before any work starts.

Can you work with software built by another developer?

I can review the system and available documentation first, then advise on what can be maintained, improved or taken over.

What does a security review include?

We agree the scope first, such as a website or app, who can log in and what they can see, or your cloud hosting. I look for weaknesses, explain what to fix first and can help put the fixes in place. It isn't a formal break-in test or an official security certificate.

Will AI make decisions on its own?

Only where you're comfortable with it. For anything that matters, like sending to customers or updating your records, I set it up so a person checks and approves the step.

Next: get in touch

I help engineering teams modernise legacy systems and add AI securely.

20+ years in software engineering and 100+ projects. Fractional and contract Tech Lead work for legacy codebases (such as PHP and Objective-C), cloud migrations, payment infrastructure, secure development and deployment, AI integration with sensible access controls, and engineering teams that have outgrown their process.
