You used Cursor, Lovable, v0, or maybe hired offshore devs. The product works. Users are signing up. Things are happening.
But now you're wondering: Is this thing going to fall apart when real traffic hits?
You don't need a full-time CTO. You need someone who's scaled backends serving millions of users to look under the hood, fix what's broken, and hand you back code that's ready for growth.
Deep dive into your codebase to identify issues before they become emergencies.
Patch vulnerabilities, optimize slow queries, and prepare your architecture for growth.
Clean, maintainable code that your future engineering team will thank you for.
Clear documentation of what was done and recommendations for the future.
Walk through everything together so you understand your backend inside and out.
I'm Alex Almada, Lead Backend Engineer at Maestro, where I build and scale systems serving millions of users.
With 10+ years of experience in backend development, cloud infrastructure (GCP), APIs, and scaling systems, I've seen what breaks when startups grow—and I know how to fix it before it does.
Based in Mexico, working with US and international clients.
I've helped founders prepare for launches, pass technical due diligence, and scale without firefighting.
