IT maturity audit & strategy

I analyse infrastructure and processes and build a step-by-step digitalization roadmap with calculated ROI.

I migrate critical systems to independent, self-hosted solutions without data loss or business interruption.

I develop ISO 9001 and API Spec Q1 standards within the IT department and put them into real operation, linking quality requirements with IT.

I use LLM solutions (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, local models): automating routine and accelerating development.

I build IT operations from scratch in manufacturing and trading companies, aligning IT with business strategy.

My criteria

What I'm looking for

04
Real challenges

SMB or startup with real challenges. Digitalization, automation, building IT from scratch or bringing order from chaos. Not "supporting what already works."

Team, not a galley

Leadership that trusts the specialist and doesn't require approving every decision. Ready for high responsibility in exchange for real authority.

Growth and impact

Interested in companies where IT is not a cost centre, but a growth driver. I want to see how IT solutions change business results.
