# firedev

AI-accelerated development with senior oversight. Rails. React. Ship.

## The pitch

I'm a senior engineer with 20 years of experience. I use AI to build faster, but I design every system and review every line. You get agency speed from one person who actually writes and understands the code.

This is not an AI code mill. This is a senior developer who happens to be 10x faster because of AI.

## How it works

1. You describe the problem
2. I design the architecture
3. AI builds within my guardrails
4. I review every line (security, performance, maintainability)
5. You get working software weekly

## The stack

## What you get vs. what you don't

+ Senior architecture on every project
+ Human code review on every commit
+ Working demos every week
+ Direct communication (no PMs, no middlemen)
+ Fixed-scope pricing (no hourly surprises)
- No team of 8 billing you for standups
- No junior devs learning on your project
- No 6-month timelines for an MVP
- No "we'll get back to you" from account managers

## FAQ

"Aren't you just one person?"
Yes. That's the point. One decision-maker. Zero coordination overhead. Direct access to the person writing your code. AI gives me agency-level output without agency-level complexity.

"What if you get sick?"
Valid concern. I maintain documentation and clean code specifically so any competent Rails developer can pick up where I left off. Your code is never a hostage.

"How is AI-written code reliable?"
It isn't -- on its own. That's why every line goes through human review. I use AI like a very fast junior developer: it drafts, I architect and approve. The judgment is mine, the speed is AI's.
