How I work

Low risk for you, from the first call

  1. 15-minute callWe agree on the problem, the scope and a fixed price. No access needed to start.
  2. Least-privilege accessA read-only role or a pull request. Never passwords or long-lived keys.
  3. Evidence you keepA report, a pull request or a runbook, and a short handover video.
  4. 30-day follow-upI check that the fixes held and answer questions for a month.

Questions

Before you ask

Do you need access to my production systems?

No passwords, ever. Audits use a read-only role you create and can delete at any time; changes arrive as a pull request you review and merge yourself.

How long does a project take?

2 to 10 working days depending on the package. You get the timeline and the fixed price before we start.

What if you find nothing worth fixing?

Then you hear that early, with the evidence. For the AWS Bill Doctor on accounts above $1,000 a month: if I don't find at least my fee in yearly savings, you don't pay.

What happens to my data?

Reports stay between us. When the project ends I delete your data and confirm it in writing.

How do I pay?

Upwork, international bank transfer, or UPI / bank transfer in India. Direct clients pay 50% upfront and 50% on delivery.

Have a cloud bill, pipeline or outage that worries you?

Tell me in a few lines. I reply within one working day (IST).
