Engagement 03
Advisory Retainer
A senior AWS architect on call for your team, without the senior AWS architect payroll.
- Investment
- $3,500 / month
- quarterly commitment
- Duration
- ongoing
For teams that have the hands but want a second set of eyes. Architecture reviews before you build, a sounding board when something is on fire, and someone who already knows your environment when the next big decision comes up.
Start a conversation →Who it’s for
- You have engineers who can execute but nobody who has done this ten times before.
- You finished an assessment or build with me and want continuity.
- You make one or two significant infrastructure decisions a quarter and want them to be right.
What you get
- Design and pull-request reviews within two business days.
- A standing monthly call, and email whenever you need it.
- Priority scheduling if something turns into a build engagement.
- A quarterly look at cost, resilience, and drift so small problems stay small.
How it works
- 01 We start with a short onboarding so I know your environment and your people.
- 02 You use me as much or as little as the month needs. Quiet months happen and are fine.
- 03 Quarterly, we check whether it is still worth it to you. If not, we stop.
Not for
A substitute for on-call. I am not your pager. I am the person who helps make sure the pager stays quiet.
