Built by engineers who used to be on your side of the table.

We started GitProject Consulting because the best engineering advice we ever got came from someone who'd already lived through the same headache โ€” not from someone selling us a framework.

A note from Gabriel.

Before starting GitProject Consulting in 2018, I spent twelve years inside product engineering teams โ€” from a 4-person startup in Syracuse to a 300-engineer public company. I loved shipping software. I did not love the weeks lost to broken pipelines, ambiguous ownership, and repeated PR arguments that nobody remembered starting.

The pattern kept repeating: smart people, decent tools, still miserable delivery. Somewhere between "hire more engineers" and "buy another SaaS" there was a smaller, cheaper answer nobody wanted to spend a quarter on. So I started a firm to spend the quarter for them.

Today we're a team of nine, based in Liverpool, NY, working with product teams across the United States. We stay small on purpose. When we say your VP is going to work with a senior consultant, we mean it โ€” not a bait-and-switch to a junior in month two.

โ€” Gabriel Jewell, Founder

What we believe

Four principles we hire, fire, and quote for.

Small is a feature

Nine senior people beat thirty of anything. We turn work down when we can't staff it ourselves.

Honest audits

If the fix is "you don't need us for this," that's what our report will say. We've handed back retainers.

Write things down

Slack loses. Notion decays. Every engagement leaves behind runbooks and recorded walkthroughs your team owns.

Leave, don't linger

Success is our team being unnecessary in 90 days โ€” not a monthly invoice going out for two years.

The team

Senior operators. No juniors billed out.

Every consultant on our roster has shipped software as a full-time employee for at least eight years.

Terraform, Kubernetes, and a healthy suspicion of anything new for its own sake.

Where we work

Rooted in Upstate New York.

Our office sits a few minutes off Onondaga Lake in Liverpool, NY โ€” a small town north of Syracuse. Being outside the coastal hiring bubble keeps our rates fair and lets us focus on work that matters. We travel to clients across the United States, but we come home to Central New York.

Visiting? The coffee is on us. Call ahead so someone's there โ€” we're a small team.
