Launch with a foundation that scales
Production-ready systems from the start. Well-structured monorepo, design system, organized architecture. Everything set up so your team can move fast for years, not just weeks.
The opposite of "move fast and break things." More like "move fast because nothing breaks."
The classic startup trap
Here's how it usually goes:
Early stages: Pick tools hastily. Whatever the person responsible knew. Whatever was "good enough."
Time passes: Team builds on top of those choices. 30 modules now depend on that library.
Hit a wall: Need to replace the tool, but we're stuck. Can't move forward.
Result: Explaining to shareholders why everything takes so long. Expensive rewrites. Or staying stuck with technical debt forever.

Build systems that are designed to change
Startups change constantly. Feature requests evolve while you're building them. Traditional approaches lead to code rot.
The Sashka Methodology
Over the years, working on many different projects, I've developed a methodology that simply works. I'm not doing anything special—it's just the way I do it.
I understand that the CTO's role is to create technological support for business needs. Tech must support agility in development. When you understand that, you build differently.
Production-Ready From Day One
Well-structured monorepo, design system, proper state management, organized server architecture, shared utilities. No technical debt from the start.
Built for Change
Features isolated as libs. Clear import rules. Types, tests, and validation. Changes are safe. Team has clear patterns to follow.
Clear Development Workflows
Developers know exactly how to structure code, where things go, and how to ship features. No guessing, no reinventing patterns.
The Right Tools for the Job
I pick tools that solve your specific problems. Not what's trendy, not what I'm familiar with—what actually fits your needs. Caching, structure, automation built-in.
Real example: The Monorepo Foundation
Start with monorepo structure. Your app is one app in the system. Room to grow without breaking.
Libs organized by domain: server, client, shared. Import rules enforced—no server ↔ client imports.
Extract features as you grow. Theme lib, UI components, controllers, routing. Each piece isolated and testable.
Caching and build optimization. Tools like Moon manage structure, cache builds at lib level, handle deployment.
Design system synced. Figma and code match. Semantic tokens, proper theming, accessible components.
Result: Your team can ship features fast for years, not just weeks.
What you get
Production-ready monorepo structure
Organized, scalable, room to grow
Design system (Figma + code)
Semantic tokens, synced, accessible
Organized server architecture
Clear patterns, type-safe, testable
Development workflows
Documented, clear, easy to follow
CI/CD that works
Automated testing, deployment, confidence
Clear documentation
Team onboards fast, no guessing
No scary rewrites in 12 months.
New developers onboard quickly. Features ship fast. Changes are safe. Infrastructure supports business needs.
How we work together
Discovery
Understand your product vision, team size, timeline, technical requirements.
Architecture Design
Plan the foundation based on your specific needs. Not over-engineered, not under-engineered. Just right.
Foundation Build
Set up monorepo, design system, core infrastructure, development workflows.
Team Onboarding
Document everything. Train your team. Make sure everyone knows how to work with the new system.
Ongoing Support
Available for questions, evolution, and new feature architecture. Many clients continue as fractional CTO or senior dev support.
Who this is for
This is for you if:
- Pre-seed to Seed stage
- Building a new product from scratch
- Want to avoid technical debt trap
