Most Django codebases are fine for years and then quietly stop being fine. A model that was perfectly reasonable at ten thousand rows starts timing out at ten million. The test suite creeps from ninety seconds to twenty minutes and people stop running it locally. None of this ever shows up as a single bug you can assign to somebody.
I come in as a senior pair of hands: writing features alongside your team, untangling the parts that have gotten expensive to change, and making the architectural calls that are hard to make from inside the sprint. You keep ownership of everything โ I work in your repo, on your branch strategy, with review from your engineers.
This is for you ifโฆ
- You have a Django app and no senior Django person in-house
- A refactor keeps getting bumped for feature work
- Your team is strong but underwater
- You need someone who can disagree with the CTO productively
