Engineer Out of Smoke

Services

Three packages, each with a fixed scope, a concrete deliverable and a price you know before we start. Not sure which one fits? Book a call and we'll figure it out together.

01

Data Audit

Find out what your data can and can't tell you — in one week.

Who it's for

Startups whose numbers live in five tools and twenty spreadsheets, and nobody fully trusts the dashboard.

Duration
1 week
Pricing · Fixed price
€1,200

Paid upfront. No surprises.

What you get

  • A map of every data source and how they connect
  • A list of data-quality issues, ranked by business impact
  • The top 5 quick wins you can act on immediately
  • A prioritised roadmap for the next 3 months
  • A 60-minute walkthrough call with your team

02

Internal App

Replace the spreadsheet that runs your business with a proper tool.

Who it's for

Teams running a core process — onboarding, operations, approvals — in shared spreadsheets and email threads.

Duration
3–6 weeks
Pricing · Day rate
€400 / day

Typical total €6,000–12,000. Fixed estimate in the proposal, paid in milestones.

What you get

  • A deployed web app with login, roles, forms and a dashboard
  • Source code in your own repository from day one
  • A short weekly demo so you see progress every week
  • Handover documentation and a handover call

03

Automation

Stop doing the same manual task every day.

Who it's for

Teams that copy data between tools, download files by hand or retype the same information every day.

Duration
1–2 weeks
Pricing · Day rate
€400 / day

Typical total €2,000–4,000. Fixed estimate in the proposal, paid in milestones.

What you get

  • A working automated workflow connecting your tools (APIs, email, files)
  • Monitoring and alerts, so you know when something needs attention
  • A review queue for the cases a machine shouldn't decide alone
  • A runbook explaining how it works and how to change it

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with clients outside Romania?

Yes. I work remotely with startups anywhere, in English or Romanian. Invoices are issued in EUR.

Who owns the code?

You do. The code lives in your own repository from the first day, and full ownership transfers to you on final payment.

How do payments work?

The Data Audit is paid upfront. Internal App and Automation projects are paid in milestones agreed in the proposal, so you only pay for work you have seen.

What happens if the scope changes during the project?

We pause, agree on the change in writing and update the estimate. Nothing extra is billed without your written approval.

What do you need from us to get started?

A 20-minute call, access to the tools involved, and one person on your side who can answer questions during the project.
