Custom software for medtech and clinical research protocols
The versiontravels with the row
You amend to protocol version 4 and the version 3 data does not stop existing. Most off-the-shelf tools treat that as a migration. Built properly the version is part of the row. Each value knows which protocol it was collected under, so asking across both is a normal question with a normal answer. No digging, no spreadsheet lining the two up by hand.

What actually slows medtech and clinical research teams
The record keeps the value and loses the history
A record that updates in place keeps the current value and loses the one before it. Good Clinical Practice wants the old value, who changed it, when, and why. Adding that after the study opens means going back through backups to work out what the field used to say.
Consent is easy to take and hard to withdraw
The form captures it once and stores a yes. A withdrawal has to reach the analysis extract, the copy the statistician pulled for the interim look, and the partner who already has a dashboard. Capturing consent is a field in a database, and acting on its removal is a job that touches everything downstream.
Every site connects in a different way
One trust offers an HL7 v2 feed, another a FHIR endpoint that only answers from inside the network, and a third sends a spreadsheet somebody types into REDCap by hand. Each new site restarts the DSPT and DTAC conversation from the top, with a different information governance lead.
Pseudonymised still points back at a person
Strip the DICOM header and the patient's name can still be burnt into the pixels. The free-text box a clinician typed into carries more than every tick box on the form. The key linking a study ID to a patient has to live somewhere, and where it lives is the question.
custom software
One domain model, one API, one person holding all of it. Software shaped to how you already work, rather than a process reshaped to fit somebody's product roadmap. It runs on infrastructure in your accounts, and you are never locked to me to keep it running.
- A written spec you sign off first
- What it does, what it deliberately does not do, and what milestone one is. Agreed in writing before a line is written, so there is a fixed thing to hold me to instead of a moving target.
- One model of your business, not three
- A customer is one thing everywhere in the system. Most of the pain in software that has grown by accident comes from three parts of it disagreeing about what a customer is.
- Keys, servers and docs in your accounts
- The deployment, the domain and the environment variables move to you at the end. You can hand the whole thing to another engineer and they will be able to pick it up.

Scope
One call, then a written spec. What it does, what it deliberately does not do, and what milestone one is. You sign that off before I write a line.
- 02Early
First deploy
A narrow slice that actually works, running where it belongs. A URL you can open, a build on your phone, a job on your own servers. Real data, real hosting, no placeholder screens.
- 03Ongoing
Build in the open
Deploys land as the thing fills in, not in one drop at the end. You watch it happen. And you get to change your mind while changing it is still cheap.
- 04Handover
Yours to run
The product runs in your accounts, with the domain, hosting and documentation under your control. Source-code transfer is quoted separately; we agree what is included during scoping.

I got my hands on a computer at 6 and never really stopped.
Now it is decentralised finance, tokenising real-world assets and topological deep learning, then building whatever those turn into. Continuum came out of that. So did Delta Xi (δξ, an infinitesimal change in a random variable).
Bossa nova and MPB were always on at home, so I sang before I played anything. Guitar and piano came later, then jazz.

Need the audience too?
I can build the thing. Getting people to notice it is a separate job, and not mine. For that I work with Nytforge, who film, edit and put the work in front of a local audience. They are strongest with automotive and local businesses.
