Available — senior capacity

§OUTSTAFFING CONSOLE

Senior engineers who ship
and run production systems.

We embed into your team for backend, cloud, and security work — .NET, Kubernetes, and the unglamorous parts of keeping software running in production.

§SERVICES

What we do

Experienced engineering capacity for teams that need technical depth, production discipline, and people who’ve operated systems before.

[ ai ]

AI-first programming

We use AI-assisted workflows to move faster without lowering the bar on code quality or operational discipline.

[ qa ]

AI-first quality assurance

Test coverage analysis, regression detection, and release validation — so you ship with confidence, not crossed fingers.

[ sec ]

Security reviews

We review apps, infrastructure, and workflows for real risk, implementation gaps, and production hardening.

[ ops ]

Server administration

Servers, environments, deployments, and the day-two reliability work across self-hosted and cloud systems.

[ dev ]

Application development

Internal tools, customer-facing apps, and backend services built for real production use.

+DELIVERY MODEL

  • +Engineers embed directly into your team, tools, and workflows
  • +Full-time or part-time engagement structures
  • +Aligned to your sprint cadence and delivery expectations
  • +No agency overhead — direct engineer access

→TYPICAL OUTCOMES

  • →Faster feature velocity without compromising quality
  • →Production-hardened infrastructure and deployments
  • →Reduced hiring risk and onboarding time
  • →Security and compliance confidence from day one

§EXPERTISE

Where we’re strongest

The best fit is backend-heavy, infrastructure-aware delivery work — where correctness, reliability, and deployment quality decide whether the thing actually survives production.

BACKEND.NET backend applications
SYSTEMSRust and C++ systems programming
REALTIMEReal-time, low-latency networked systems
PAYMENTSPayments and financial systems
LLM INFRALLM infrastructure: routing gateways & provider integration
CONTAINERSContainerized workloads on Kubernetes
CLOUDCloud deployment architecture & operations
PIPELINESProduction deployment pipelines

Engineers integrate into your team and start contributing within two business days.

§DOMAINS

Where we’ve worked

Technically demanding and regulated domains, where security, reliability, and compliance are part of the job — not an afterthought.

§CASE STUDIES

How an engagement runs

Client names are withheld; the scope is real.

Fintech payments platform: engineering leadership at scale

fintech · payments

Challenge

A fintech payments platform handling tens of millions of dollars in transactions per day needed engineering leadership, production reliability, and regulatory compliance while scaling.

What we did

  • Led a 38-person international org: 20 engineers and 3 DevOps directly, plus QA (10) and product analytics (5) through their managers.
  • Set the service architecture and owned all production code reviews.
  • Built CI/CD, monitoring, and incident response for money-moving services, including transaction ledgering.
  • Partnered with legal, risk, and analytics to meet ISO/SOC requirements.

§FOUNDER TRACK RECORD

Before founding Hypedriven, our founder built and led systems at:

Relic EntertainmentCompany of Heroes

[ c++ ][ java ]

Built deterministic lockstep multiplayer networking, plus distributed build pipelines and internal tools.

Piranha GamesMechWarrior Online

[ c++ ][ r ]

Built client-side prediction and server reconciliation netcode for thousands of concurrent players, and R data pipelines for live performance tuning.

IUGO Mobile Entertainment

[ c++ ]

Led 20 engineers across backend, client, and live-ops for mobile titles generating ~$1M/day in revenue. Built modern C++ client-server systems that scaled through launch and live-event traffic spikes.

PNI Digital Media

[ c# ][ c++ ]

Designed and built a photo-book rendering server used concurrently by hundreds of photo labs, and prototyped ML and computer vision features.

From lockstep to client-side prediction, the founder has shipped both ends of the consistency-vs-latency tradeoff.

§PRODUCTS

What we’ve built

Alongside client work, we build and maintain our own software.

HypeLLM

llm gateway
[ rust ]

A self-hosted routing gateway for LLM traffic: one controlled entry point in front of local and hosted model providers, built for operators who cannot let request content choose destinations or credentials.

  • OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible APIs (chat, responses, embeddings, messages) with streaming, failover, circuit breakers, and deterministic candidate ordering.
  • Policy-based routing through model aliases, grants, denies, preferences, hard pins, residency requirements, and capability filters.
  • Providers: llama.cpp, OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, and Moonshot/Kimi, plus an explicitly enabled generic OpenAI-compatible adapter.
  • Security hardening: separate inference and management planes, strict parsers, destination pinning, credential isolation, RBAC, two-person policy publication, and an authenticated audit chain.
  • Zero third-party runtime dependencies — the workspace builds offline and the admin UI ships first-party static assets only.

HypeTerm

terminal mirror
[ rust ][ c++ ]

Watch and type into a terminal running on your machine, from your phone. A Rust relay carries the bytes both ways with a replay window, so a reconnecting phone picks up the scrollback it missed; the Android client is a C++17 core that renders the session and sends keystrokes back. Nothing runs on the device.

HypeLimits

windows tray app
[ c++ ]

A dependency-free Windows 11 tray application for monitoring AI-provider allowances. It reads session, weekly, and credit usage for Claude, Codex, Grok, and Antigravity from the providers' own authorized endpoints — sign in with a subscription, paste an API key, or reuse an official CLI login already on the PC.

StarHermit

game distribution
[ web ]

A PC game distribution platform where games are built straight from their source repositories and played in the browser, with a shared library, cloud saves, and community features behind a single Google sign-in.

→live

ScreenSaved

windows utility
[ c++ ]

A system-tray utility that fades a monitor's brightness once the cursor has been absent from that display for a while.

→download→source

Open Tardigrade

ai agent stack
[ c# ][ .net ]

A self-hosted AI agent stack: a .NET agent you drive from WhatsApp through an MCP tool server, running against a bundled llama.cpp model on your own GPU or a hosted API of your choice. Named after the tardigrade, the tiny, near-indestructible water bear.

→live→source

ROU

number theory cli
[ c# ][ .net ]

A .NET 8 command-line toolkit for large-prime generation, wheel-based candidate sieving, integer factorization, and Pocklington primality proofs, accompanying the paper “A Roots-of-Unity Interpretation of Wheel Sieving and Pollard p−1.”

Flamingo Beauty

e-commerce
[ web ]

A cosmetic e-commerce site.
