A design engineer, embedded in your team.
Two or three days a week in your repo, Slack, and standups, closing the gap between design intent and shipped interface.Terms

What embedded looks like
For teams shipping fast whose interface is falling behind the design: rough interactions, drifting systems, uneven polish, product and marketing out of sync.
I work on your cadence and in your reviews, with a clean exit at agreed milestones.
What I typically own
- Interaction, motion, and product polish
- The design system and its components
- Brand and marketing sites
- Design handoff and code review
- Hiring support when it moves in-house
How it works
- Intro call
- 30 minutes.
- Scoping call
- 60 minutes.
- Trial sprint
- Two weeks, paid. Confirms fit before a three-month contract.
- Engagement
- Begins on the agreed cadence.
Pricing
- Two days a week
- From $10,000 a month
- Three days a week
- From $14,000 a month
Month to month after the three-month minimum. Invoiced monthly in advance.
Questions
- Can you do less than two days a week?
- Not embedded. A retainer starts at two days a month; scoped work is a project, priced by the week.
- Do you work with multiple embedded clients?
- One or two at a time, at most. Embedded needs real presence.
- Can it convert to full-time?
- Sometimes. If that becomes the right conversation, I'm open to it.
- What stacks do you work in?
- Your stack first. I'm fastest in TypeScript, Next.js, Vercel, Tailwind, Motion, GSAP, WebGL, Sanity, Stripe, and headless Shopify.
