About
No deck. No intake form. Just the work.
I'm Ivars Gmizo - fractional cto & solutions architect, based in Malta · remote-first. About fifteen years of shipping production software, and I still write the code. devil.services is two halves of one brand: a fractional-CTO / solutions-architect practice, and a constellation of small, sharp products I build and run solo.
This blog isn't a portfolio of opinions about myself. It's the evidence layer under the pitch. Every build-in-public teardown is also proof of the exact claim a founder checks before hiring: I ship, and I ship fast. If you're a developer, you're here for the teardowns. If you're a founder, you're here to find out whether I'm the right call - including the times when the honest answer is "not yet."
How this works
I publish here first - this is the canonical home - then syndicate to the usual feeds with the canonical pointed back. No sales theatre, no newsletter you didn't ask for, no acronym soup. If a post helps you decide you don't need me yet, it did its job.
