About Dan

I design and build cloud-native SaaS platforms that scale, and I have been doing it for over 20 years.

As a Freelance SaaS Architect, Consultant and Full-Stack Engineer, I have not only helped startups launch their first versions and supported growing companies in scaling to thousands of users, but also advised founders and executives on product strategy, market positioning, and business growth, always with a focus on simplicity, performance, and security.

Over the years I have delivered more than a hundred projects, co-founded SaaS products, worked closely with founders and leadership teams, engaged with potential investors during fundraising efforts, and led development teams. Alongside the technical execution, I provide business consulting on product roadmaps, go-to-market strategy, and aligning technology with long-term business goals.

I enjoy building applications that make a real impact, products that clients trust, users love, and that continue delivering value long after launch.

    As co-founder I was involved in architecting and developing the platform, while also taking on marketing, sales, billing, and customer support. With a small, talented team we delivered a fully functional SaaS product with automated sign-up and billing, hosting infrastructure, and a complete customer-facing experience. One of our key innovations was offering true in-browser editing of entire websites in a way that felt simple and intuitive for users. We successfully onboarded paying clients internationally who used the platform to launch and manage their websites.
