Lunacomet Engineering counsel

Counsel for the calls
that carry risk.

Senior engineering counsel for the decisions that are expensive to get wrong - architecture, scale, and knowing what to build before you build it.

A senior pair of hands on the decisions that shape everything downstream.

Lunacomet is the operating wrapper for senior engineering counsel, led by Duane Cilliers. Engagements are deliberately few and deliberately deep: the review before a rebuild, the second opinion on a platform bet, a steady hand when a system has outgrown the team that built it.

Where it helps most

  • Architecture and technical strategy

    A clear-eyed read on the system you have and the one you are about to build - so the structural decisions hold up under the next two years of growth, not just the next sprint.

  • Scale and reliability

    Where a platform will bend before it breaks, and what to do about it first. Pragmatic, sequenced, and costed against what the business actually needs.

  • What to build, and what not to

    The harder half of engineering: build versus buy, the second opinion on a platform bet, and the discipline to leave the wrong thing unbuilt.

A conversation, before a commitment.

Currently working with a small number of clients. If a technical call is keeping you up at night, the fastest way to start is a direct conversation.
