Whether you need an MVP in six weeks, a legacy rescue, or a senior builder to get into the code and ship, Ollieware meets you where you are.

Full-stack product acceleration

Get a working v1 in weeks, not quarters — from discovery to deployed app — with one partner owning the roadmap and the build.

  • Translate fuzzy ideas into working software in weeks, not quarters.
  • Pair closely with designers to ship pixel-perfect, accessible interfaces.
  • Instrument analytics and feedback loops so we can iterate with confidence.
Legacy modernization & rescue

Stabilize fragile systems fast so you can ship the features your customers needed yesterday without risking uptime.

  • Audit current architecture and build a plan your stakeholders can trust.
  • Untangle debt while keeping critical systems online and compliant.
  • Coach internal teams so momentum continues long after launch.
Team leadership & mentorship

Help your hybrid teams ship consistently by adding calm senior leadership where it's missing.

  • Stand up modern SDLC practices: CI, testing, observability, and guardrails.
  • Mentor engineers across web, mobile, and infrastructure disciplines.
  • Translate between business, legal, and technical conversations without friction.
Platform & integration architecture

Ship integrations that respect sensitive data and scale with your business instead of fragile one-off hacks.

  • Build secure, compliant data flows with HIPAA, PCI, and SOC considerations.
  • Wrangle legacy partner APIs and deliver clean abstractions to your teams.
  • Codify infra with Terraform, Pulumi, and AWS so environments stay reproducible.

Mid-market transportation startup
Logging MVP rebrand ships on time and under budget
Turned a partially built logistics tool into a production-ready, multi-tenant SaaS that gets timber loads from forest to mill with real-time visibility.
  • Shipped the rebranded multi-tenant SaaS on schedule, turning a half-built prototype into a tool dispatch teams actually use every day.
  • Authored the multi-tenant implementation plan, API docs, and service contracts that cut through scope noise and kept a three-team delivery on track.
  • Containerized the Next.js web client, Express/Mongo API, and React admin into a reproducible Docker/ECS pipeline with SOC-ready environment automation.
  • Unlocked driver adoption by designing the Flutter mobile app API: on-duty toggles, load lifecycle, GPS tracking, push notifications, and chat.

CORE design system unlocks design-development parity
Productized the company’s visual language into CORE — a typed React/Tailwind system that lets any squad drop in accessible, brand-ready UI without rebuilding primitives.
  • Enabled every product squad to ship on-brand, accessible UI faster with a shared React/Tailwind design system.
  • Shipped 40+ audited atoms/molecules/organisms (from TanStack-powered data grids to Stripe-ready payment forms) with theme tokens, dark mode, and Tailwind presets that covered every product surface.
  • Activated semantic-release, Chromatic visual diffs, Vitest/Cypress suites, and Storybook 8 docs so every npm publish came with screenshots, type defs, and CI evidence.
  • Delivered consumer templates (Remix, serverless Express, CRA) plus brown-bag sessions that cut handoff cycles in half for design and feature squads.

Patient records portal earns the trust of the nation’s largest firm
Built the secure bridge between litigators, providers, and an internal fulfillment desk—pairing a React portal with a serverless Node/API tier so medical record pulls stop depending on email chains.
  • Gave litigators and staff a single, secure place to manage medical record pulls without email or spreadsheet chaos.
  • Designed the end-to-end workflow: request intake, provider search, tracked submissions, and pre-signed uploads that land straight in the firm’s case-management platform without exposing PHI.
  • Delivered a Postgres/TypeORM schema plus admin ops endpoints for migrations, ETL, and bulk sync so legacy matters could be brought forward with zero downtime.
  • Codified AWS infrastructure with Pulumi and GitHub Actions, giving legal IT a reproducible Lambda/S3/RDS footprint and SOC-II ready audit trails.
