About
01 — Building products, connecting business and technology
I'm Mik Bry. Thirty years building software — SaaS platforms, mobile apps, real-time video, cryptography systems, cloud infrastructure, AI products. React, Node.js, Rust, mobile, WebAssembly, Python — whatever the problem actually calls for.
I work as a Fullstack Tech Lead and hands-on CTO with founders, business leaders and development teams who need someone who can go from the business need to a shipped product — not just one or the other. I write code, I lead teams, and I keep the technical direction connected to what the rest of the business is trying to do.
02 — How I work with you
Early conversations usually turn on a few questions: what has to be true for the first useful version, what the budget actually buys, where the hard calls are. We agree on scope and trade-offs before I start contributing, so the delivery work isn't a surprise.
Then I build. Architecture, code, mobile, infrastructure, integrations — day-to-day, next to your developers or your external studios. When the team needs technical direction, I bring it: priorities, hiring input, review, incident posture, hand-off.
AI is in the toolkit. I use coding agents daily and I've shipped AI-built products in production. It's a capability I apply, not a prerequisite for working together — the decision about what's safe to launch is still a human call, and it's one I make.

04 — About this site
Plain static HTML — no framework, no bundler, no client JavaScript. A small Node script reads markdown from content/ and emits HTML to dist/. Total build time: a few seconds; the previous Next.js version took ~60.
I rewrote the site itself from Next.js + React + Tailwind to vanilla JS in about two hours, driven by Claude Code under my own review.
Since July 2026 it's been served from a Scaleway VPS in France with Caddy as its front-end — a move off GitHub Pages driven by the need for HTTP-header control and same-origin backend services. Build time went from ~60 seconds to ~5. Deploy is a single-hop rsync over an SSH forced-command with a per-site deploy user; no CI framework layer, no orchestrator, no Docker in the artifact.
