Rust systems, shipped with intent.
Wolven Tech is a one-person, Rust-only advisory practice, built for HFT, prop trading, HPC, and 24/7 platforms where microseconds and state integrity matter. Event-sourced backends, Tokio/Axum services, WASM modules, AI-agentic Rust. Quiet, cheap, correct.
Four ways we engage.
Pick the shape that matches your constraint. Every engagement starts with a 30-minute discovery call and a written proposal. No surprises, no vapor.
Technical Due Diligence
For VC partners and acquirers evaluating a Rust-heavy or event-sourced codebase. We assess workspace health, clippy discipline, async boundaries, test coverage, observability, operational maturity, and security hygiene.
48-hour turnaround available for time-sensitive deals.
Fractional Rust Architect
Embedded on your platform team as a senior-to-staff architect. Code reviews, architecture decisions, team mentoring, and hands-on work when the hot path needs to ship. Typical terms: 3-month minimum, monthly retainer.
Best fit: seed to Series B teams with < 10 Rust engineers.
Platform Sprint
Design and build one concrete thing, end to end: an event-sourced service, an MCP server, a WASM migration, or a Tauri application. You get code, documentation, and a runbook. We show up, scope it, and ship it.
Fixed fee. Weekly demos. Source license on delivery.
Advisor
A monthly architecture review and a staff-engineer sounding board. Async-first (written + Loom), with a 60-minute sync whenever you need one. Best for technical founders who want a second opinion they can trust.
Flat monthly retainer. Cancel any time.
Four production Rust platforms.
Three anonymized client engagements plus AllSource, our flagship embedded Rust event store. Client names and domains are held confidential; the technical facts are not.
Event-Sourced AI Desktop Platform
Tauri 2 desktop app with embedded LLM agents and first-class MCP support, backed by a custom event store and projection engine. CI-enforced clean-architecture boundaries across a ten-crate workspace.
Fintech Microservices Monorepo
Thirteen-crate monorepo combining Tonic gRPC, Axum HTTP, compile-time-checked Postgres via SQLx, Redis caching, and an event-sourced domain layer using custom AggregateRoot / ApplyEvent traits. OpenTelemetry end-to-end.
AllSource: Embedded Rust Event Store
Embedded Rust event store with an AI-ready product suite. Four-crate Edition-2024 workspace with an Elixir NIF bridge. Write-ahead log + Parquet columnar storage with zero-copy Arrow IPC on the hot path; hybrid full-text + vector search via Tantivy, fastembed, and instant-distance. Seven-day durability stress harness validates correctness under concurrent writers and crash recovery.
Event-Sourced SaaS with WASM Frontend
Ten-crate workspace where domain crates dual-compile to native and wasm32. Leptos 0.8 client, Axum server, Stripe Connect via async-stripe, and better-auth bridged to a custom event-sourced database adapter. OpenAPI-driven contracts.
Public artifacts.
Proof you can read. Every one of these is live on crates.io or GitHub, MIT-licensed where applicable.
monorepo-meta
cargo install monorepo-metaUnified Rust task orchestrator for modern monorepos. Tokio + tmux, ~5 MB idle memory, 3000+ lines/sec log throughput, ~2.7 MB release binary. One command to run everything.

View on GitHubHow a Wolven Tech engagement runs.
No bloated discovery phase. No slide-ware deliverables. We're calibrated for teams that want to ship, not teams that want to plan to ship.
Discovery (30 min)
A short call. I ask the hard questions, you get a written proposal within 48 hours.
Scope & contract
Fixed fee, fixed outcome, fixed timeline. Retainers have a defined runway. No open-ended billing.
Ship weekly
Weekly demo, Loom recording, or PR. Whatever matches your team's rhythm. Progress is visible.
Handover
Code, docs, runbook, architecture notes. Your team owns what we built. We disappear on request.

Rust engineering leader with 15+ years of fintech, SaaS, and Web3 experience. Previously Technical Lead at Ebury, Software Architect at Tellimer, and fractional CTO across multiple founder-mode startups.
I started Wolven Tech because the teams I most want to help (small, ambitious, technical) keep asking the same questions: can Rust actually replace this TypeScript service? How do we event-source without drowning in ceremony? What does a staff-engineer-quality architecture review look like, in writing?
Wolven Tech is how I answer those questions professionally. One operator. Rust only. No subcontracting.
