Code & Architecture Audit

An honest assessment of your existing codebase: what holds up, what doesn’t, where the real risks are — not just a linter report.

The starting point

Grown codebases rarely show the real risks at first glance — a linter flags style issues, not the database query missing a tenant filter or the payment webhook without signature verification. Anyone facing a takeover, an investment decision, or simply wanting clarity on a project’s state wants an honest, prioritized assessment, not tool output.

How I approach it

  1. Architecture and security review along the actual risk surfaces: auth, payment/webhook processing, data isolation, database schema.

  2. Findings prioritized by real risk and effort, not by the number of linter warnings.

  3. Concrete, actionable recommendations instead of a plain problem list — implementation of the critical points on request.

What you get

  • A written, prioritized list of the actual risks — understandable even for non-developers on the team.
  • Clarity on what you’re taking on with a takeover or further development, before time and money are committed.
  • On request: the critical points fixed directly instead of only documented.

Frequently asked questions

Before you ask.

How long does an audit typically take?
That depends heavily on the size of the codebase — I discuss it in the initial call based on a rough size estimate, not a flat number.
Do you need full repository access?
Read access to the repository is enough for the code side; for the architecture part, a short conversation with the existing team (if there is one) helps too.
Is an audit worthwhile for small codebases too?
Yes — small, fast-growing projects (e.g. after an MVP sprint) often show most clearly where technical debt has piled up, before it gets expensive.
