The factory where ideas
The factory where ideas
become shipped software.
I'm Nicolas Perez. Through Awesome Factory I build production-grade software for founders and teams — and ship my own independent SaaS products. Senior engineering, on demand, billed by the hour.

What I build
Engineering that ships, not slideware.
One senior engineer who owns the whole stack — from the database schema to the pixel. Buy hours and point them at whatever moves your product forward.
AI & LLM integration
Agents, RAG pipelines, and Claude-powered features wired straight into your product — with the prompts, tools, and guardrails to ship them safely.
APIs & backends
Robust REST and webhook architectures, payment flows, auth, and data models built to scale — and documented so your team can run them.
SaaS, zero to launch
I've taken my own products from idea to paying users. I'll do the same for yours — billing, onboarding, infra, and the unglamorous 20% that ships it.
Cloud & DevOps
Dockerized deploys, CI/CD, and sensible infra on the platforms you already use. No over-engineering — just reliable, observable systems.
Technical strategy
Architecture reviews, build-vs-buy calls, and a candid second opinion on your roadmap from someone who actually ships the code.
How it works
From hours bought to work shipped.
No discovery calls to nowhere, no bloated SOWs. Buy a block of hours and we're building this week.
01
Buy hours
Pick how many hours you need at $100/hr and check out securely with Stripe. Done in two minutes.
02
Kickoff
We hop on a short call, I scope the work against your hours, and you get a clear plan with priorities.
03
I build
You get focused, senior engineering with regular updates — real code in your repo, not status theatre.
04
You ship
Reviewed, tested, deployed. Top up more hours whenever you want to keep the momentum going.
The Lab · Indie SaaS
I don't just build for clients —
I don't just build for clients —
I ship my own products.
Awesome Factory is also an independent software studio. These are products I designed, built, and run end to end. It's where I prove the engineering before I bring it to you.

The engineer
One craftsman. The whole stack.
I'm Nicolas Perez — a software engineer who's spent over a decade turning ambiguous ideas into software people actually use. Awesome Factory is how I work: a small, sharp studio where I take on client engineering and build my own SaaS.
When you buy hours, you're not handed off to a team you'll never meet. You get a single accountable engineer who designs, builds, ships, and stands behind the work — the same person who took products like SoulDecode from blank repo to paying users.
No bloat, no buzzwords. Just well-built software, delivered.
— Nicolas Perez
Good to know
Questions, answered.
Pick the number of hours you need, check out with Stripe, and you've got a block of senior engineering time. I'll reach out right after payment to schedule a kickoff and scope the work against your hours. Need more later? Just buy another block.
Anything on the engineering spectrum: building features, standing up a new app, integrating AI, fixing a gnarly bug, an architecture review, or shipping a SaaS from scratch. If it's software, it's fair game.
No artificial countdown. Buy what you need when you need it. We'll align on a working window at kickoff so the engagement keeps momentum.
Completely. Payments run through Stripe, a PCI-compliant processor trusted by millions of businesses. Your card details go straight to Stripe over an encrypted connection — they never touch this site or me.
That's my favorite kind of work. I've shipped my own products end to end, so I know the path from idea to paying users. Buy a block of hours and we'll turn your concept into something real.
Let's build something awesome.
Buy your first block of hours and we'll be writing code this week — or reach out and tell me what's on your mind.
