Authoritative codebase audits for investors and venture funds

Venture capital firms, angel investors, and companies facing M&A need to validate that a startupโ€™s software platform is technically sound, scalable, and free of critical intellectual property risks.

I conduct independent codebase audits and infrastructure reviews. Drawing from my academic computer science background and past industrial tenure as an IoT Business Unit Manager, I review repositories, profile database schemas, evaluate cloud architectures, and deliver clear, authoritative reports that translate deep code metrics into actionable business decisions.

This module covers the following targeted topics and key expert competencies:

Startup codebase audits and technical risk assessments
Infrastructure and cloud architecture scalability reviews
Developer Experience (DX) and code maintainability evaluations
IP validation and technical feasibility checks prior to funding rounds
