Embedded Dev

Tier 4

$4,200

per month


Embedded Dev puts a senior developer on your team without hiring one: about 40 hours a month, same-day priority response, direct Slack or Teams access during business hours and a weekly sync. It covers WordPress, AI and security work and costs $4,200 a month. I work in person around Worcester County, Boston and New England, and remotely for anyone else.

Who it’s for

  • Agencies that need dependable WordPress capacity for client work
  • Growing startups that need a senior developer before they can hire one full time
  • Organizations running several systems across WordPress, AI tools and security monitoring

What’s included

  • Everything in Partner: maintenance, monitoring, SEO and compliance checks, and a quarterly full security audit
  • Same-day priority response
  • Dedicated development capacity for new features, about 40 hours a month
  • Direct Slack or Teams access during business hours
  • A weekly sync call
  • WordPress, AI and security work under one retainer
  • An annual architecture review

What it’s like

You message me the way you’d message a colleague. We plan the week on the sync call, and I work through it with the context of everything I’ve built for you. That’s the advantage over a different freelancer each time: no ramp-up, and one person who understands how your WordPress site, AI tools and monitoring fit together.

Examples of the kind of systems I run: a platform for maintaining about 60 WordPress sites and a security dashboard for 40 sites.

Terms for all retainers: billed monthly in advance, with a 3-month minimum commitment and cancellation on 30 days’ notice after that. Unused hours don’t roll over, but they can go into a prepaid hour bank at your discounted retainer rate.

Compare the retainers

  • Watchdog: updates, backups, uptime and security monitoring, about 3 hours ($350/month)
  • Guardian: adds performance tracking, small edits and a monthly call, about 7 hours ($850/month)
  • Partner: adds active development, SEO and compliance monitoring, about 15 hours ($1,800/month)
  • Embedded Dev (this plan): effectively a part-time developer, about 40 hours
