Building a professional engineering organization with a solid product portfolio requires a different mindset than experimenting and prototyping. The processes and techniques which served your team well in the past won't suffice any more. Not only do you need to rebuild your product on a solid technical foundation, but you need to bring about a cultural shift in your organization.
This sounds like you? I can help. Reach out for a free 30-minute initial consultation.

What past colleagues say
Bradford is a very compentent developer with broad expertise, with whom I very much enjoyed working. He understands how to effectively implement business requirements in IT systems and in the process works extremely quickly and focused on the goal.- Michael Wentzlaf, DHL Group
I had the opportunity to work closely with Bradford on a significant platform component at Personio.
