MartianAI co-founding engineer, Head of Europe
Architected the AI model router, with 1000x faster inference. Built and led a team of 6, helping grow company value by tens of millions.
What I take on
Examples, not limits.
Scale what you built fast
Vibe coded or just getting started, made ready for real users, security reviews and growth.
Take over existing code
From a dev shop, a past hire or AI. I untangle it and make it solid.
Infrastructure that just works
Fast deploys, stable systems and cloud bills that make sense.
Make the big calls
Build or buy, which architecture, what comes first. The right call, carried out.
Senior help, fast
Someone who hits the ground running, without months of hiring.
Crack the hard problem
I dig in, find the real issue and solve it.
Whatever it is, I'm that person. I understand the technology deeply, help you make the right decisions, and then carry them out with you.
What I deliver
Results, built the right way.
- Working software in production, on new or existing code
- The right thing built first: what brings the most value
- Hard problems taken on and solved, hands on
- Code you own, from day one
- An AI setup your next engineers can keep using
How I buildEvery change
- Plan
- We agree what to build. The agents get a written plan before they write any code.
- Build
- AI agents write the code, several pieces at once, steered by me.
- Verify
- Tests and checks run on every change.
- Review
- I review it before anything ships. Not vibe coded.
You choose how I fit in
Same experience, three ways to work.
- Role
Fractional CTO
Technical direction, build or buy calls, and who to hire. Hands on, not just advice.
- Role
Founding engineer
From zero to shipped, or from a shaky first version to one that holds up.
- Role
Staff engineer on your team
I take on the hardest problems and raise how your team builds with AI.
How it works
Start small. Keep going only if it works.
- Step 1
30 minute call
If I'm not the right fit, I'll say so.
- Step 2
Kickoff week
A written plan and the first working piece. Not happy after the first week? You pay nothing.
- Step 3
Monthly
Stop any month. You own the code.
I'm Dory.
20+ years delivering software, from Microsoft to AI startups.
“There are very few people in the world who can take a digital product from concept to working software without much day-to-day direction, let alone do it quickly. Dory, Coreteam lead engineer can, and is great to work with along the way.”
ReddySenior staff AI engineer
Made a voice AI platform 10-15x faster and cut voice processing costs 5x. Built AI agents that find bugs, review code and ship fixes.
BCGTech lead, CO2 AI
Took the platform from MVP to enterprise product. Cut customer onboarding from hours to minutes.
HearstSenior engineer
Took over and rebuilt the systems behind a $100M advertising business, then hired the team that took over.
I hit the ground running. I've taken over existing systems many times, often leading within the first two weeks. My last two clients both hired me directly.
