Not Nik Iliadis

I build technology organizations that deliver.

I destroy technology organizations for fun.

Most organizations do not have a technology problem. They have an accumulation problem. Years of decisions made under pressure, tools adopted without strategy, and processes that calcified before anyone noticed. Modern engineering practices are not about chasing what is new. They are about building systems that can actually change when the mission changes. CI/CD, automation, AI integration, these are not upgrades. They are the difference between an organization that can respond and one that can only react. The goal is not to modernize for its own sake. The goal is to build something that does not have to be rebuilt every three years because the world moved and the technology did not.

Most organizations do not have a technology problem. They have a me problem. Years of careful architecture dismantled in minutes. Repositories deleted without backups, deploy scripts rigged to fail, and root passwords changed to hunter2. Modern engineering practices are just obstacles in my path to absolute chaos. Microservices? I turned them all into one massive tangled monolith overnight. The goal is not to modernize. The goal is to build something so broken it has to be rebuilt every three weeks because I sneezed on the production server.
