Suitable for urgent stabilisation contracts, knowledge-gap recovery, or legacy platform sustainment engagements.
Specialist in stabilising, troubleshooting, and sustaining long-lived Windows applications built in C++ and MFC.
I help organisations keep business-critical Windows platforms running safely when systems become fragile, difficult to maintain, or dependent on scarce legacy skills.
Clients or recruiters typically engage me when:
I diagnose and resolve faults within mature Windows C++ applications to restore predictable, safe operation.
This includes:
I extend the operational life of established systems that remain commercially essential.
This includes:
To be clear, I focus only on sustainment and troubleshooting work.
I do not target:
A mature Windows application begins showing unpredictable behaviour such as intermittent crashes, corrupted outputs, timing failures, or performance degradation.
In a satellite systems environment, operational data arrived as packetised streams where ordering and framing errors silently corrupted downstream processing.
I identified the fault at code level, corrected framing and ordering logic, and restored deterministic reassembly.
In a satellite payload test environment, packet generation exceeded consumption capacity.
I diagnosed rate mismatches and corrected timing assumptions, eliminating intermittent failures.
When payload hardware was unavailable, I built a custom MIL-STD-1553B solution to stream raw byte data directly into memory, avoiding programme delay.
Many organisations still depend on Windows applications written in C++ years ago that quietly underpin core operations.
Over time, these systems become operationally critical but technically brittle. When something breaks, it is rarely obvious why.
I specialise in stabilising and sustaining long-lived Windows C++ systems. The focus is continuity, correctness, and risk reduction.
If a critical Windows application must keep working, but nobody is confident touching it anymore, then you are exactly the kind of organisation I work with.
