Open to fixed-scope contract work, full-time remote roles (EU / UK / US timezones), and fractional engagements. Comfortable leading backend from architecture through hand-off, or plugging into a senior team as the LLM/agent-systems owner.

won't take:

  • pure front-end
  • native iOS / Android
  • anything requiring on-site attendance

$ response-time — I reply within 1–2 business days, EU hours.

[04] batu@batu0:~/hire/how-i-engage

Discovery call → short written spec (what I'll build, how I'll hand it off) → fixed-scope delivery. Documentation and a two-week follow-up window are always included. For longer-running engagements or full-time roles, I work async with 2–3 hours of overlap for whatever timezone the team anchors to.
