Hire a senior Solutions Architect — fractional or contract.
Feneco's founder, Samuel Santos, is available as a fractional or contract Solutions Architect for companies where legacy systems are holding back growth. This is for CTOs, CEOs and Heads of Engineering who need senior architecture judgment — cloud migration, system design, modernization strategy — without hiring a full-time architect or outsourcing the decision to a generalist agency.
What the engagement includes
Architecture, not just advice
You get a named Solutions Architect embedded with your team — reviewing, designing and, when needed, writing the code that matters — not a slide deck handed off to a delivery team.
Fractional or full engagement
A few days a month to unblock a specific decision, or a dedicated contract for the length of a migration or build. Scoped to what the engagement actually needs.
No junior handoffs
Every engagement is led end-to-end by the same senior architect from day one — no outsourcing, no rotating consultants.
Track record
Before Feneco, Samuel led the modernization of the Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) system at Commonwealth Bank as Lead Engineer — migrating a rudimentary architecture to a cloud-native, serverless solution on AWS that processes hundreds of thousands of transactions per day, built on Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design. 25+ years, 25+ production systems architected across banking, fintech and SaaS.
