Backlog Blitz

by Bryan Guillen

Big Backlog Wins in 10 Business Days — No Roadmap Detour.

A focused, fixed‑fee engagement where I drop in, take ownership of one big win or a set of smaller wins, and ship them cleanly with daily PRs and a tight handoff.

Seed–Series A startups and established product orgs. Small SOW, manager‑level approval.
