Portrait of Becca Bailey

Hi, I'm Becca.

I help founders and small teams make sense of complex, half-built technical systems — and decide what to do next with clarity and confidence.

I'm a senior software engineer and technical leader with a background in frontend architecture, performance, and systems thinking. These days, I focus on work that's thoughtful, finite, and sustainable — for both the product and the people maintaining it.

What I'm focused on right now

  • Helping early-stage founders untangle technical debt and unclear architecture
  • Advising teams who've moved fast and want to stabilize what they've built
  • Writing and speaking about sustainable engineering, decision-making, and systems that support people (not just growth)

Ways we might work together

  • Technical diagnostic sprints to identify what's working, what's fragile, and what matters most
  • Fixed-scope implementation projects with clear outcomes and clear boundaries
  • Advisory sessions for architecture decisions, code reviews, and prioritization

I work in short, well-defined engagements rather than open-ended freelancing.

Writing & speaking

I write and speak about software systems, work, and decision-making — especially where technology intersects with people, power, and sustainability.
