What I do

Three kinds of work, one goal: your project ships, and your team understands how it got there.

Technical project management

For teams with a software project that has to land: a new product, an outside vendor's build, or an offshore team that needs steady direction.

Sprint planning, release planning and release notes
Managing vendors and offshore teams, across time zones
Specs, acceptance criteria and hands-on QA
Budget tracking and plain-language status reports
Experience delivering in HIPAA-regulated healthcare

Part-time PM$3,600/month Up to 40 hours a month. Weekly check-ins, sprint management and reporting.

Embedded PM$6,800/month Up to 80 hours a month. I work inside your team's tools and meetings like one of your own.

Angular and front-end engineering

For teams stuck several versions behind, or building a component library that many other teams depend on.

Angular upgrades and migration planning
Component libraries and design systems
Design tokens, from Figma to production code
Test coverage, accessibility testing and CI quality gates
Workshops and training for your developers

Angular Upgrade Readiness Assessment$3,500 Fixed price. I review your app and its dependencies and give you a step-by-step upgrade plan, so you know what it will take before you commit.

Design System Audit$4,500 Fixed price. A review of your component library's structure, tokens, tests and adoption, with a prioritized list of fixes.

Shopify and e-commerce

For brands whose store isn't converting the way it should, or who are ready to rebuild.

Store builds, redesigns and migrations
Conversion and average-order-value improvements
Email, funnels and marketing integrations

Store Tune-Up$1,500 Fixed price. A review of your store's speed, checkout and conversion basics, with fixes for the biggest problems.

Store build or redesignFrom $7,500 Quoted by scope after a call.

21% to 92%Raised automated test coverage in nine months, adding accessibility testing and code-quality gates.

About me

I started out in marketing and retail management, co-owned a digital agency, and then spent more than five years building and leading enterprise Angular work at a major bank. That path is why I can sit in a sprint review with engineers and then explain it clearly to the people paying for it.

Hartwick Technologies is my consulting business. I'm based in Orange County, California, and I work remotely with teams anywhere in the U.S.

Tools I work in every day

Angular, Angular Material, TypeScript, RxJS, Figma, Jira, Confluence, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, SonarQube, Karma and Jasmine, Docker, Kubernetes and Shopify.
