Every rate below links to a case study on this site demonstrating that practice. If a number looks high, follow the evidence and decide for yourself. That is what it is there for.
Baseline architecture, standard web development, and tech-stack choices, the decisions that are cheap now and expensive in eighteen months.
AWS, Azure and GCP migration, Kubernetes, and infrastructure scaling. The range is honest: routine pipeline work sits at the bottom, a live migration with a rollback plan sits at the top.
Zero-trust setups, security audits, and SOC 2 or HIPAA readiness. Delivered as a written findings register with severities, the document is the deliverable, not a conversation.
LLM pipelines, model integration, and data-science architecture, including the part most engagements skip: evaluation with the authority to block a release.
For shops under $1M revenue and passion-project startups: budget-conscious MVP builds, simple web setups, and plain tech guidance. Same engineer, sized to the budget.
Where a range is shown, the range is real. Routine work inside an established pipeline sits at the bottom of it; a live migration with a rollback plan, or an audit someone will be held to, sits at the top. The rate is agreed in writing before the work starts, never after.
Priced from the rates above, the hours are stated, so the arithmetic is yours to check.
A read of your system and a written opinion on it: what will break first, what is over-built, and what the next twelve months cost if nothing changes.
The audit before you carry real traffic or a real customer's data. Auth, secrets, failure modes, backup restore, and the gaps that only show up under load.
One working thing, shipped. Scoped down together before anything is built, because the failure mode of an MVP is scope, not engineering.
the contact form, or admin@designsbyduhart.org, tell me what is breaking, or what you need built. A paragraph is enough to tell whether it is worth a call.
