Staff-level React, Next.js, and TypeScript help for founders, portfolio companies, and agencies.
Hire staff-level engineering help without turning it into a full-time search.
Brandon Quintana Consulting is a staff-level product engineering practice. The work is hands-on: production code, frontend architecture, and staff-level ownership of frontend work.
Staff-level product engineering
Build and improve web products with a staff-level engineer who can move between the product problem, the architecture, and the implementation.
- React, Next.js, and TypeScript
- Node.js and GraphQL
- Production code, review, and release support
- Staff-level ownership without a full-time hire
Frontend architecture and fractional lead
Set the frontend direction, or act as fractional frontend lead for a team that needs that role covered part of the week.
- Component systems, UI architecture, and design-system foundations
- Technical direction with founders, product, and design
- Mentoring, code review, and delivery support
- A lead who still ships
Real-time systems
Live product surfaces where latency, connection state, and failure modes are part of the feature.
- WebSockets and server-sent events
- WebRTC and real-time media workflows
- Mapbox maps and location-aware interfaces
- Event-driven UI that stays understandable when the network does not
Supabase apps
Product applications on Supabase when auth, data, and file storage should come together without a large platform build.
- Auth
- Database
- Storage
- Next.js frontends on top of that stack
Custom content and admin tools
Content workflows and internal tools built as product software, for teams that have outgrown a generic CMS.
- Next.js plus Supabase, in place of an off-the-shelf CMS
- Admin and internal tools shaped around the actual workflow
- Editorial and operational interfaces your team can keep changing
Retainers from about 10 hours a week, plus project and fractional work.
Pick the shape that matches the work. A short conversation is enough to tell which one fits.
Retainer
From about 10 hrs/week
Ongoing staff-level product engineering, starting around 10 hours a week. A steady partner for roadmap work, not a one-off drop-in.
Start with clarity, then ship in useful increments.
Good consulting should leave a clearer product, a healthier frontend system, and a team that understands what changed.
Understand the real job.
Clarify goals, constraints, users, stakeholders, technical risk, and what success should look like.
Choose the right path.
Shape the architecture, data layer, testing approach, and scope before implementation starts.
Build, communicate, and iterate.
Deliver working software in visible steps so everyone can make better decisions as the product takes shape.
