Software Consulting in Singapore
I build web apps, mobile apps, and backend systems. Production-standard. No cutting corners.
A lot of software agencies will tell you yes before they understand the problem. I won't. We scope first, agree on the cost and timeline in writing, then I build it myself. No outsourcing, no junior handoffs, no surprises on the final invoice. Based in Singapore, 8+ years shipping production software for banks, startups, and SMEs.
What I Build
Web App Development
Custom web applications built to production standard. Not templates, not page builders. Real code, real architecture, real performance. I use React, Next.js, and Astro depending on what the project actually needs.
Mobile App Development
iOS and Android apps that work like they were meant to be there. I build cross-platform with React Native when it makes sense, native when it doesn't. You get a real app, not a website in a wrapper.
Backend & API Development
The part users never see but always feel. I build the APIs, databases, and server logic that keep your product fast, secure, and maintainable. REST or GraphQL, SQL or NoSQL. Whatever fits the problem.
System Integration
Your tools don't talk to each other and your team is manually moving data between them. I fix that. Webhooks, third-party APIs, automation flows. Less friction, fewer errors, more time for actual work.
Software Architecture
Starting something new or inheriting a mess? I review what you have, help you make the right decisions early, and give you a clear technical roadmap. The expensive problems are the ones you catch too late.
Ongoing Support
Software needs upkeep. Dependencies age, bugs appear, features get requested. I offer retainer-based support so you have a real engineer on call, not a ticket queue with a two-week response time.
How It Works
Discovery Call
Free. No pitch, no deck. We talk about what you're building, what you already have, and what problem you're actually trying to solve. I ask the questions most people skip.
Scoping & Spec
I turn what we discussed into a clear scope document. Features, technical approach, timeline, and cost. You know exactly what you're getting before any work starts.
Architecture Review
Before writing code, we review the technical design. Database structure, API contracts, component boundaries. Getting this right early saves weeks of painful refactoring later.
Build & Test
I build it myself. No junior handoffs, no outsourcing. Testing is built into the process, not tacked on at the end. You get progress updates, not silence followed by a big reveal.
Handover & Support
You get working software, clear documentation, and a handover that actually makes sense. Ongoing retainer available if you want a real engineer keeping things maintained.
Enterprise-grade process, without the enterprise overhead
My process follows the same Software Development Lifecycle used in financial institutions. The kind where shipping something broken isn't an option.
Every project starts with requirements in writing before a single line of code. Then architecture review, followed by development with testing built in. Not bolted on at the end.
Before anything goes live, it goes through UAT with real scenarios. Deployment is planned, not rushed. After handover, you get documentation your team can actually use.
This isn't bureaucracy for its own sake. It's how you avoid scope creep, missed requirements, and systems that look fine in the demo but break in production.
Use Cases
Internal Business Tools
Custom dashboards, admin panels, and workflow tools built for how your team actually works. Not a generic SaaS with 80% of features you don't need.
Customer-Facing Web Apps
Portals, booking systems, marketplaces, and product platforms. Built fast, built to scale, and built to give your customers a good experience.
Mobile Apps for iOS & Android
From MVP to full product. I scope it properly, build it cleanly, and ship it to the App Store and Play Store. No surprises at submission time.
API & Third-Party Integrations
Payment gateways, CRMs, ERPs, shipping providers, government APIs. I handle the integration so your team doesn't have to read fifty pages of documentation.
Legacy System Modernisation
Old software that's slowing your business down. I assess what's worth keeping, rewrite what isn't, and migrate your data without losing anything important.
SaaS MVP Development
You have a product idea and need something real to show investors or early customers. I scope it to the essential features and build something that actually works.

Common Questions
How long does a typical web project take?
A focused web app or internal tool usually takes four to ten weeks. Larger products with more moving parts run twelve to twenty weeks. I scope the timeline before we start. You'll know upfront, not after you've already committed.
Do you work with existing codebases or only greenfield?
Both. I'm comfortable jumping into existing code. I'll do an honest audit first so we both know what we're working with. Some codebases need a targeted fix. Others need a rewrite. I'll tell you which one honestly, even if the rewrite is more expensive.
What stack do you use?
It depends on what the project needs. For web: React, Next.js, or Astro. For mobile: React Native for cross-platform, native Swift or Kotlin when performance demands it. For backends: Node.js or Rust depending on complexity and load. I don't have a favourite. I use what fits.
How do you handle scope creep?
We define scope in writing before the project starts. If you want to add something mid-project, we assess it as a change request with a clear cost and timeline impact. Nothing sneaks in and inflates the final invoice. That's how I would want it if I were the client.
Do you do design as well as development?
I can work from a Figma file you provide, or I can handle basic UI/UX for straightforward projects. For complex product design work, I recommend involving a dedicated designer. I'll tell you honestly which category your project falls into.
Have a project in mind?
Let's have a straight conversation. Tell me what you're building and I'll give you an honest take on scope, timeline, and cost. No pitch, no pressure.
