I build your product — and the marketing site that sells it.
I build your product and the marketing site that sells it. DG DevWorks is a one-person senior engineering practice — no subcontracting, no account-manager layer — for startup founders who need a product built, modernized, or kept moving by someone who's shipped this before.
What I help founders build
MVP / Product Build
A full-stack build from idea to shipped product — frontend, backend, database, and deployment handled end to end by one senior engineer.
Starting at $12,000
View service →Marketing / Landing Site Build
Fast, conversion-focused marketing sites built to sell — this site is the proof of the craft.
$3,500–$6,500
View service →Legacy Modernization / Migration
Migrating aging stacks — PHP, Angular, monoliths, Django, brittle API gateways — to a modern Next.js and microservices foundation.
Starting at $8,000 — custom quote
View service →Fractional / Embedded Senior Engineer
A part-time, ongoing senior engineer embedded in your team — code review, mentoring, and Agile/Scrum leadership.
$3,500–$7,000/mo
View service →Shipped in production, not just planned
Modernizing a Regulated Bank's API and Application Layer
A regulated banking platform was running on an aging API gateway and a monolithic application layer. Every change carried compliance risk, releases were slow, and the team needed a path off legacy infrastructure without disrupting a live, regulated system.

A global hardware brand's partner and developer-facing portals ran on an aging PHP/Drupal stack that was slow to update, difficult to internationalize, and falling short on accessibility and SEO fundamentals for a global developer audience.

Marketing / Landing Site
$3,500–$6,500
1–2 weeks
Scales with page count and content complexity — roughly 40–70 hours at the hourly rate.
MVP / Product Build
Starting at $12,000
4–8 weeks
The floor for a lean, single-core-feature MVP. Scope calls typically land above the floor once integrations and auth are factored in.
Legacy Modernization / Migration
Starting at $8,000 — custom quote
Varies by scope
Migration scope varies too much for a fixed range — every quote follows a technical audit of the existing system.
Fractional / Embedded Senior Engineer
$3,500–$7,000/mo
Ongoing, month to month
Reflects roughly 10–20 hours/week at the hourly rate — scoped to your team's cadence, not a fixed headcount contract.
