I'm a full stack UX/product generalist and can help you with everything from brand to front end code.

Things I'm especially good at:

* Reviewing your product with fresh, expert eyes to give you a prioritized list of problems you might solve, and how you might solve them. If you're budget crunched and need a design roadmap, I can help.

* Overhauling sprawling legacy monsters into compact, streamlined, conceptually simple processes. Answering the question "how the hell does this thing work now, and how could it work if we shed the baggage?"

* Fintech/form-heavy/data-intensive UI. I've got extensive experience in the finance and government space, and have owned payment flows that process billions annually. If you feel like a 90s credit union and want to feel like stripe, get in touch. If you've got the kind of volume where people get excited about gains measured in basis points, really get in touch.

* Design systems & scaleable design ops. If you have a small team of overworked designers who do nothing but one-off fire drills, I can help them build a toolkit of assets, patterns, and best practices that solve more problems at the boilerplate stage, cut down on flailing during exploration, and simplify dev handoff. Scale your team without scaling headcount.

Very interested in the payments/fintech space, but try me – happy to chat about your project casually, even if you're not hiring.

Hi, I’m Lee Whalen, Principal of Fuzzy Logic, a Seattle-Based DevOps consultancy with deep experience in providing business results through technical solutions.

We help SaaS companies save money through extensive automation - infrastructure deployment, code-checking/deploy, CI/CD - and good-practices for on-premise or public cloud management.

Business results we’ve obtained for our Clients include:

+ Savings in excess of $1.4M/yr by environment-wide migrations from Rackspace fully managed hardware to a privately hosted Openstack environment

+ A 33% savings from previous OpEx through optimizing public-cloud spend, replacing expensive SaaS products with internal services, etc

+ Cut DevOps engineer 'time to first commit' from two weeks to two days with documentation and optimized onboarding processes

+ Developed a custom API-driven provisioning tool that allowed VMs to deploy independent of the cloud provider backend

Let's have a conversation about where your business is going and what we can do to get you there. Contact Fuzzy Logic or its principal Lee Whalen:
