Engineering Insights

Pragmatic guidance and deep dives spanning architecture evolution, delivery velocity, resilience, data, and intelligent product capabilities.

Architecting a Modular Monolith: Fast Flow Without the Microservice Overhead

Why modular monoliths offer a powerful evolutionary path—structure, boundaries, and refactorability before splitting into services.

Practical DDD for Product Teams: Ubiquitous Language on a Deadline

Lightweight domain modeling techniques we use to accelerate alignment without big upfront design ceremonies.

Building Reliable Feature Flags & Progressive Delivery Pipelines

Patterns for safe rollout: dark launches, canaries, kill switches, metrics feedback loops, and ownership.

Observability Beyond Dashboards: Tracing Product Outcomes

Linking traces & events to user value streams to drive prioritization and resilience work.

Performance-First React Architecture: Streaming, Caching & Edge Patterns

Real-world patterns to cut TTFB, reduce hydration cost, and keep interaction latency low.

Secure Software Supply Chains: SBOM to Runtime Enforcement

Integrating provenance, dependency hygiene, signing, and policy-as-code into the everyday developer workflow.

Data Product Thinking: Designing Trustworthy Analytical Pipelines

Treating data flows as products: contracts, governance, observability & iteration loops.
