Chaba works with software teams that need experienced technical judgment, focused execution, or an independent review of important engineering decisions.

Technical Advisory

Advisory work is useful when a team needs a clear technical point of view without adding a full-time role. Engagements can be lightweight and ongoing, or focused around a specific decision.

Representative work:

  • Architecture and system design review.
  • Technical strategy and roadmap feedback.
  • Vendor, platform, and tooling evaluation.
  • Engineering process and delivery guidance.
  • Technical diligence and risk assessment.

Consulting

Consulting work is scoped around a defined problem, decision, or outcome. The goal is to help a team understand the tradeoffs, decide what to do next, and move with less uncertainty.

Representative work:

  • Backend and platform architecture.
  • Reliability and operational readiness.
  • Observability strategy.
  • Migration planning.
  • Technical planning for product initiatives.

Engineering Team Development

Engineering team development is useful when a team needs to grow its technical capacity without losing clarity, quality, or operating discipline. The work focuses on the structure, practices, and leadership needed for a team to make good technical decisions consistently.

Representative work:

  • Engineering role and team structure design.
  • Hiring criteria and interview process feedback.
  • Onboarding plans for new engineers.
  • Technical leadership support for founders and engineering leads.
  • Development process and team operating guidance.
