Work with me
on a project
For teams and clients who need a specific machine learning, data or software system built. Every tier below links to something I have already built and deployed. If you are hiring for a role, the main portfolio is the better place to start.
Rates
Contract projects
Fixed-scope builds for teams that need something shipped. Each tier below links to something I have already built and deployed.
- Written scope before any work begins
- 50% up front, 50% on delivery
- Scope is negotiable, the rate is not
If the number is above your budget, tell me the budget and I will tell you what fits inside it.
Automation script
One task, automated properly. Data cleaning, scheduled report generation, an API pull, a parser for a messy format.
- Working script with a README
- Runs on your machine or a schedule
- One round of revisions
Model plus API
A trained model behind an endpoint your product can call. Validation at the boundary, documented, deployed.
- Trained model, scored against a baseline
- FastAPI service with request validation
- Deployed with a live URL and Swagger docs
- One round of revisions
Full ML system
The whole thing. Model, API, interface, database, container, deployment, load test, and a retraining path so it does not decay.
- Everything in Tier 02
- Dashboard or front end
- Database and Docker
- Load tested with reported numbers
- Two weeks of post launch support
Ongoing
For a system already running. Monitoring, retraining, small features, and someone to call when it breaks.
- Defined scope each month
- Model retraining and drift checks
- Cancel with 30 days notice
Rough figure in ten seconds. A written proposal with fixed scope always follows before anything starts.
50% before I start
The balance on delivery. Under $200, the full amount up front. It protects both sides: you know I am committed, I know the budget is real.
Scope is written down first
A one page brief naming deliverables, timeline, price and payment terms before any work happens. No brief, no build.
We negotiate scope
Every quote is a starting point for what gets built, not a haggle over the rate. Drop a feature, drop a revision, phase it across two months. Quality is the one thing that does not come off the table.
Paid how you prefer
M-Pesa for Kenyan clients, quoted in KES. Wise, PayPal or bank transfer internationally, quoted in whichever currency above suits you.
Enquire
Tell me the problem and what you have already tried. If you have a budget, say it, and I will tell you what fits inside it. I reply within a day.
