Two decades of modernizing legacy platforms into scalable, cloud-native systems — available to a small number of teams who need a senior hand on the hard problems.
Summit Cloud Services is the independent practice of a principal architect and staff-level engineer who has spent a career taking tightly-coupled, hard-to-change systems and turning them into clean, observable, cloud-native services — without stopping the business to do it.
Engagements are deliberately kept few and focused: architecture and code review, cloud-migration strategy, API and integration design, and hands-on technical leadership when a team needs momentum.
Domain-driven design and service-oriented refactors that untangle monoliths into maintainable, testable systems.
Multi-year, zero-downtime migrations from on-prem to Azure — App Services, Functions, Front Door, Key Vault, Azure SQL.
REST platforms, SCIM user management, payment-provider and third-party integrations built for versioning and longevity.
Setting standards, mentoring engineers, and directing contractor teams through delivery — with an owner's eye on quality.
A sample of outcomes from a career leading backend architecture and cloud delivery for regulated, production SaaS.

Re-architected a monolithic forms platform into a DDD-inspired, service-oriented .NET Core system — establishing clean bounded contexts that scaled cleanly with demand and made the platform far easier to maintain.
Architected and oversaw the move of production products from on-prem to Azure while sustaining uptime above the 99.5% contractual SLA throughout.
Designed a SCIM-based REST API and integrated nearly a dozen payment providers under PCI SAQ-A compliance across institutional customers.
Maintained SOC 2 Type II, HECVAT, WCAG 2.2, and HIPAA-aligned practices in partnership with corporate security and compliance teams.
