For B2B SaaS companies with €500k+ annual revenue
Your team isn't too slow —
your code is holding them back.
I help B2B SaaS companies increase their development velocity by up to 30% in 6 weeks through targeted tech debt reduction — without stopping your feature roadmap.
Free & no obligation — You get 5 targeted questions + a prioritized list of your 3 biggest tech debt bottlenecks.
After 6-Week Sprint
Previously worked with
Does your team look like this?
More bug fixing than features
You spend more time firefighting than building real features. The codebase has lost its clean structure and everyone knows it.
Refactoring is always postponed
Features keep shipping even though your own code is slowing the team down. The big cleanup never makes it onto the agenda, quarter after quarter.
Every change carries risk
New developers need weeks to become productive. Every code change feels like flying blind.
Knowledge is stuck with individuals
Only 1–2 seniors truly understand critical parts of the system. If one leaves, development effectively grinds to a halt.
No predictable delivery
You want to ship strategically, but you're constantly reacting to the next fire. Roadmaps become fiction.
Security vulnerabilities sleeping in the code
Outdated dependencies mean known vulnerabilities in your system that no one has addressed because it never felt urgent enough.
30% faster development is possible — we help B2B SaaS teams achieve exactly that.
Not a consultant who talks, but a developer who works in the same stacks as your team every day.
Most tech debt problems I see weren't caused by bad developers, but by real pressure, real deadlines, and real trade-offs. I know both sides: as a developer who worked under that pressure, and as an external specialist who analyses and resolves those patterns afterwards.
- 10 years as a fullstack developer in modern web and cloud technologies — not an IT generalist, but someone who actively works in these stacks every day.
- Direct project work in B2B SaaS companies under real feature and delivery pressure — I know what it means when stability and speed are demanded simultaneously.
- Deep, hands-on understanding of how technical debt emerges, escalates, and impacts teams in real products.
- Insights into the decisions of numerous CTOs at B2B SaaS companies — recurring patterns in architecture, scaling, and tech debt management clearly identified.
- An external, analytical perspective — the one that is often missing internally because teams are caught up in day-to-day operations.
Your team after working with us
No more firefighting
Your team develops proactively instead of reactively. No more unplanned emergency sessions. Instead, focused work on real features.
Feature releases without anxiety
Predictable, stable, without unexpected side effects. Releases become a normal event again, not a high-stakes moment.
New developers productive in days
The codebase is understandable and structured. Onboarding takes days, not weeks, because knowledge lives in the system — not in people.
Knowledge belongs to the team
Architecture decisions are documented, critical parts are understandable. No single point of failure. The team acts independently.
The CTO thinks strategically again
No more escalations destroying focus. Time for product, growth, and the decisions that truly matter.
Security systematically ensured
Dependencies up to date, vulnerabilities closed. No more risk sleeping silently in the system waiting to become expensive.
This isn't wishful thinking — it's the outcome of a focused Tech Debt Sprint.
How I work
Four steps from slow to fast — clear, measurable, without stopping your operations.
Find the real bottlenecks
In a short conversation we look together at what's really slowing you down right now. You immediately get a clear view of your three biggest tech debt bottlenecks, prioritised by their impact on your development velocity.
Free · 15 Min.
Make the damage concrete
I analyse your code quality, architecture, and dependencies in detail. You receive an actionable priority list with concrete measures, estimated effort, and expected impact.
Execute, not just talk
The most critical issues from the audit are resolved directly — as ready-to-merge pull requests in your repository. Refactoring, dependency updates, test coverage: everything that immediately restores your velocity.
Secure the progress
After the sprint I continue to support your team so that no new debt accumulates. New features, new pressure, new complexity. I make sure the velocity gains are preserved long-term.
The result: Your team develops faster, more predictably, and without fear of the next release.

B2B SaaS companies with €500k+ annual revenue who are done carrying this problem into yet another quarter.
You scaled fast — so did your codebase, but not in a structured way
You've built a lot, deployed a lot, shipped a lot in a short time. The technical debt was a conscious trade-off. Now it's slowing you down, and everyone on the team knows it, but no one has time to address it.
Feature roadmap vs. tech debt — managing both at once is tearing you apart
You want to ship and stabilise. But every sprint spent on refactoring is a sprint missing from the product. So you push it off. Quarter after quarter. And the debt keeps growing while the pressure rises.
You've tried to fix it yourself and it never really worked
Refactoring sprints planned, half-heartedly started, abandoned because a customer escalated. Clean code guidelines introduced that nobody follows. You know the pattern. It won't change on its own.
… if you recognise yourself in one of these scenarios and are ready to stop spending the next quarter just like the last one, I am the right person to talk to.

From permanent firefighting to predictable releases in 6 weeks
Daniel Ratke
Managing Director, Auralis Group GmbH
- Challenge:
- With a growing B2B customer base, feature pressure rose massively. At the same time, the team was carrying deliberately deferred technical debt that there was never time to address. New developers could only be onboarded by seniors, and bug fixing consumed a large portion of capacity.
- Solution:
- A structured audit identified the biggest bottlenecks, which were then resolved in a prioritised 6-week sprint as pull requests directly in the existing repository — without interrupting ongoing feature delivery. Test coverage was targeted at the most critical areas.
- Result:
- Backend bug rate reduced by approximately 35%, developer onboarding shortened from 6 to 3 weeks. Development velocity measurably increased in the following quarter. The team shipped two planned features on time for the first time.
"We had been putting off refactoring for years. It was incredible that the most critical pieces were done in 6 weeks while we kept on shipping."
Book your free Tech Debt Sparring
Still 1 spot available — then waitlist. Every month without action has a measurable cost. In the sparring call we make that cost concrete.

Analyse together
We look together at where you stand, what your biggest technical bottleneck is, and what a first priority list might look like.
Take home a clear roadmap
You get 5 targeted questions plus a prioritised list of your 3 biggest tech debt bottlenecks — regardless of whether we work together afterwards.

"The best decision was taking that first step."
— Markus Bauer, CTO FinancePilot GmbH
Max. 2 sprint clients at the same time. Once both spots are taken, there is a waitlist.
Every month of delay costs: longer feature cycles, more bugs, growing dependencies.
For the audit: full refund if no concrete action is needed.
Questions we get asked frequently …
What happens in the free sparring call?
In 15 minutes we look together at where you stand. You get 5 targeted questions about your codebase and processes, and take away a prioritised list of your 3 biggest tech debt bottlenecks.
Do our developers need to be available during the sprint?
Only minimally. I need 1–2 hours of access to your codebase and a short introductory call at the start. I handle the rest independently and deliver finished pull requests without disrupting your ongoing operations.
What if the audit finds no action is needed?
Then you get the full audit cost refunded. No ifs, no buts. The risk is on me, not on you. In practice, this has never actually happened.
How is this different from a traditional IT consultant?
I deliver pull requests, not slide decks. As an active fullstack developer I work daily in the same stacks as your team. No theoretical audit — direct implementation in your repository.
Still have a question? Just book the call — we cover everything in 15 minutes.
