Three ways to hire me this week

Productized consulting for teams building agent-era infrastructure — x402 micropayments, MCP servers, Claude Code skills, on-chain verification. Pricing is public, deposits book the work immediately, and all payments settle as USDC on Base.

Not sure which fits? Tell me what you're building and I'll suggest the smallest thing that moves you forward.

One week

x402 Integration Sprint

$2,500 flat · USDC on Base

Your existing paid API surface accepts x402 payments from agents on Base mainnet in one week.

What you get

  • x402 middleware wired into your Worker / Node / Python stack (I'll pick the right adapter).
  • Payment-required challenge payload tuned for your use case (price tiers, nonce strategy, per-route gating).
  • One MCP tool wrapping your API so Claude Code / Cursor / Windsurf agents can discover + pay for it.
  • Smoke tests + a recorded walkthrough of the paid flow so your team can maintain it.
  • One month of async follow-up if the facilitator behaves unexpectedly.

48-hour async

Agent-Ready Audit

$1,500 flat · USDC on Base

A specific, opinionated verdict on whether your site / API is ready for MCP + x402 agents, with the three highest-leverage changes prioritized.

What you get

  • Written report (PDF + Markdown) covering: MCP exposure, agent discoverability (llms.txt, robots, schema.org), x402 readiness, agent-bot allow/block policy, and the single biggest gap.
  • One pull request with the smallest change that moves the needle — usually an llms.txt + two robots.txt lines + a /api/mcp stub.
  • Honest pricing signal: I'll tell you if the answer is "you don't need x402 yet, just ship the API first."

Senior Agent-Infra Retainer

$5,000 per month · USDC on Base · min 2 months

On-tap senior engineer who's already built x402, MCP, EmDash, Cloudflare Workers, and on-chain verification infrastructure — embedded async with your team.

What you get

  • Up to 3 async 60-minute consults per week (Telegram / Signal / Slack).
  • Code review on any PR touching agent/x402/MCP infra — typical turnaround under 24 hours.
  • One written architecture note per month on whatever's most useful (sent Monday AM).
  • Priority response during outages — if a paid agent flow breaks at 2am, you have someone who's seen this.

Questions

Why deposits?

The deposit screens out tire-kickers — an intro call with a real buyer is worth 10x an intro call with someone who's "just curious." The deposit is credited against your first invoice if you proceed, and it's refundable if I decline the work for any reason.

Why USDC on Base, not Stripe?

I operate crypto-native by choice and necessity — instant settlement, no chargeback risk, transparent on-chain history. If you need a fiat invoice I can arrange one via a partner; ask on the intro call.

Do you take equity?

Not as primary compensation — I'm not in a position to trade cash for equity right now. If you want to discuss equity as a bonus on top of cash retainer, that's possible for the right team.

What about a role?

Also open to full-time roles — senior / staff / principal — at $220–420k base, remote-first or negotiable relocation. If a consulting engagement makes sense as a "try before you hire" bridge, say so on the intro call. See /hire for the longer version.
