I build software products—
for clients and for curiosity.
Consulting that ships. Experiments that explore.
hello@tangen.caWays I Help
01
Build an MVP
Go from idea to working product. I help founders ship a focused first version — fast, functional, and ready for real users.
02
Rescue a stuck project
Codebase tangled? Team blocked? I diagnose what's wrong, untangle the mess, and get things moving again.
03
AI-assisted delivery
Modern development moves differently. I help teams adopt AI-assisted workflows that actually accelerate shipping.
