Senior Developer Advocate
This is not developer marketing, not Agile Coaching, and not staff augmentation.
Embedded senior engineer fixing delivery by shipping code and correcting the system.
Predictable Delivery
You need fewer surprises, reliable timelines, and clear signals when something needs attention.
Most delivery problems come from misalignment: unclear priorities, invisible blockers, decisions made without the right information.
We restore delivery capability. You get early warning of risks, honest progress signals, and teams that deliver what they commit.
No Added Complexity
We don't change your org chart. No new frameworks to learn. No renaming roles. No multi-month "transformation" before results appear.
We work with what you have, remove what slows things down, and strengthen what already works.
Result: Software that arrives when expected and doesn't require heroic effort to maintain.
Authority & Friction
This role requires executive cover. It will challenge decisions and surface uncomfortable truths.
If you want compliance, this will fail. If uncomfortable truths are unwelcome, do not engage.
The right buyers feel relief reading this. Everyone else should look elsewhere.
Who This Is For
- Software companies with their own product and real users
- Vertical software with real revenue
- Leaders who want facts, not comfort
- Organizations ready to act on evidence
Who This Is Not For
- Feature factories with roadmap-by-committee
- Organizations seeking validation for existing plans
- Political environments where inconvenient facts are suppressed
- Anyone expecting harmony without friction
What Changes for You
- Delivery timelines you can trust
- Early warning before problems become crises
- Clear visibility into actual progress
- Fewer emergency escalations
- Teams that improve without constant oversight
How This Happens
- Work alongside your team as a contributing member
- Remove obstacles that slow delivery
- Build capability while delivering results
- Provide honest assessment directly to leadership
- Protect institutional knowledge — amplify, not replace
Remote First
Remote collaboration is the most effective mode. Both sides see the same information in real-time. No lag between observation and action.
- Daily availability — consistent presence, no travel gaps
- Immediate response — problems get attention when they appear
- Lower overhead — no travel costs eating your budget
On-site visits for relationship building, sensitive conversations, or team workshops — when they deliver clear value, not just presence.
Working with Other Advisors
We complement, not compete. Strategy or organizational consultants set direction; we ensure teams can execute.
This operates independently of whatever framework is currently in fashion. We translate strategic intent into reliable operational results.
Why Cheaper Developers + AI Doesn't Fix This
AI amplifies local efficiency, not global delivery. It makes individual developers faster at typing code. It does nothing for unclear requirements, invisible dependencies, broken feedback loops, or decision latency.
If your main problem were typing speed, you wouldn't need this service.
When This Engagement Ends
This is not open-ended dependency. The engagement ends when:
- Delivery no longer depends on us
- The system produces predictable outcomes without intervention
- Your team operates confidently on their own
Orientation Meeting
We offer a no-obligation online conversation to answer your questions and understand your situation. This isn't a sales call — we listen first to see if we're a good fit for each other.
Please bring your most senior stakeholders and whoever would sponsor the engagement. These conversations often run an hour or longer when we connect well.
How We Begin: Instrumentation Phase
We don't start with interviews and opinions. Before any hands-on work begins, your organization uses Caimito Navigator for a minimum of four weeks to measure reality before acting.
Navigator shows what's actually happening — delivery momentum, hidden obstacles, dependencies between teams. This replaces status reports, steering decks, and consultant slides. When the evidence shows readiness for improvement, we define the engagement based on what Navigator revealed — not guesswork.
Navigator continues throughout, tracking progress against your starting point and turning vague goals into measurable outcomes.
