Freelance Azure architect, on contract or fractional terms
A senior Azure architect inside your programme — design authority, technical design and reviews.
Sound familiar?
What it looks like before we arrive
- Discovery starts next month, and no architect is free to lead it.
- Designs reach review late, and rework is eating the timeline.
- The developers are capable, but nobody owns the decisions.
What you get
What we deliver
- Requirement analysis and technical design documents developers can build from
- Design authority: reviews, decision records and one consistent set of patterns
- Mentoring for the team that will run the system after we leave
- A handover with runbooks and the reasoning behind every decision

Questions
Contract & fractional architect: questions, answered
Do you work under our brand and process?
Yes, if the programme needs it. Our principal spent seven years inside system-integrator delivery teams, and knows how to work within one.
How much time can you give us?
It is agreed per engagement and written into the scope, so neither side is guessing. Tell us the dates and the days a week; we will tell you honestly whether we can cover them.
