How I help

I work with founders on the engineering decisions that determine whether products scale or break.

01

AI Engineering

I design AI systems that integrate cleanly into production products without creating long-term complexity.

AI agents · LLM integrations · RAG systems · MCP · Local LLMs · Workflow automation · AI product features

02

Software Architecture

I design backend systems that remain stable as usage grows — without requiring rebuilds under pressure.

03

Websites

I build websites that convert consistently and behave like part of the product, not marketing assets.

Founder websites · SaaS websites · Landing pages · CRO · SEO · Analytics

04

Fractional CTO

Embedded technical leadership for founders who need senior engineering judgment without hiring a CTO full-time.

Engineering-first

No marketing fluff. Every recommendation has a technical reason.

Founder-friendly

You work directly with me. No handoffs. No agency overhead.

Senior experience

10+ years building production systems, fintech, government platforms, and scalable backend systems.

Fast execution

Small feedback loops. Direct communication. Fast iteration.

Process

How a project works

A structured path from first call to live system — the same across AI, software, and web.

01

Discovery

Short call. I understand your problem, goals, and constraints. You don't need to have all the answers.

02

Architecture

I define the technical approach — system design, stack decisions, and a clear path forward.

03

Build

I develop the solution — fast, production-grade, and built to last beyond the first release.

04

Launch

We go live. Hosting, infrastructure, monitoring — everything in place from day one.

05

Support

I stay available. Ongoing retainer or on-demand — depending on what your team needs.

“From consultation to completion, the process was seamless. She listened to my requirements and delivered a beautiful, minimalistic, and user-friendly website. I couldn’t be happier with the result.”

Train With Jeanelle

“I engaged Magda to work on some changes to my existing website. Magda was always reachable and understood the scope of work well to finish within the given period of time. Highly recommended!”

About

I'm Magdalena — an engineer, a builder, and a founder's technical partner.

I'm a software engineer with a Master's in Computer Science from DTU and more than a decade of experience building production systems across fintech, government platforms, and startups.

My background is in backend engineering, distributed systems, and software architecture — but over time I realised founders rarely need just code. They need someone who can understand the business problem, make strong technical decisions, and ship systems that work in the real world.

Today I work directly with founders on AI systems, backend architecture, and product engineering — from short technical audits to long-term embedded work.

I don't run an agency. When we work together, you work directly with me from start to finish.

Typical problems I solve

Do any of these sound familiar?

01

We want to add AI but aren't sure what's technically feasible or sensible

02

Our backend is starting to break under real usage

03

We need senior engineering help for a high-risk build

04

We inherited a system no one fully understands

05

We're preparing to launch and need a technical review

06

We need a website that actually converts visitors into leads

07

We need someone who can go from architecture to execution independently

Book a Discovery Call

If one of these is yours, it's usually a 30-minute conversation.

FAQ

Common questions

Yes. I integrate well with existing engineering teams — as an embedded consultant, a technical reviewer, or an additional builder. I adapt to your workflow.

Yes. I help founders go from idea to a working, production-ready MVP — with a focus on good architecture from day one so it doesn't need to be rebuilt later.

Yes. Architecture reviews and technical audits are a common starting point. I'll give you a clear picture of what's working, what's at risk, and what to prioritise.

Both. Short-term or one-off projects are typically fixed-price or hourly. Ongoing work — Fractional CTO, embedded engineering — is retainer-based. We'll find the right structure.

Yes. I build AI features, agents, LLM-powered products, RAG systems, and workflow automation. I focus on practical AI that works in production — not demos.

Yes. I work on redesigns, conversion improvements, and full rebuilds — depending on what's actually needed.

Usually within 1–2 weeks. For urgent work (Technical Rescue), often faster. Book a discovery call and we'll confirm timelines from there.
