01 · The Work

Three trades. One crew.

Production oversight for AI-built software, offered in three parts. Choose the one you need most now, or have us knock out issues one after the other.
/ 01

Locks & Doors

Security hardening for AI-built apps. Secrets out of git, RLS turned on, auth consolidated to one provider, dependency CVEs triaged, cloud permissions tightened.

We close the holes your AI didn't know it left open.
  • Secret scanning & rotation
  • Auth consolidation (Clerk / Supabase / Auth.js)
  • RLS, tenant isolation, PII handling
  • Snyk + Semgrep + manual triage
  • Cloud & agent permission review
Your .env is in git. Has been since March. Your Stripe key is on the client. We checked.
/ 02

Wiring & Lights

AI observability the way it actually needs to be done. Sentry for the app, LangSmith for the tracing LLM calls and seeing costs and prompt evals.

We show you exactly how everything works.
  • Sentry + structured logs + alerts
  • LangSmith traces
  • Prompt versioning
  • Agent / tool-call failure analysis
  • LLM cost & latency dashboards
Traces, evals, alerts, cost visbility. You need these my friend
/ 03
C

The Foreman

The Senior Engineer your team needs, bringing a "good bones" opinionated take on your code base so your AI agent can build out new features and you can scale.

We get you production-grade and keep you there.
  • Architecture & PR review
  • AI-generated code review
  • Agent guardrails & approval gates
  • Vendor & tooling decisions
  • Roadmap sanity checks
We'll return all your Slack messages even without the promise of stock options.

06 · FAQ

Questions we get weekly.

If your question isn't here, email hello@mail.dirtyjobs.studio and just ask.
01I built it with Cursor / Bolt / Lovable / Claude Code. Will you still touch it?+
Yes. We don't care what you used. We care will continue to use them if it makes sense for you and your goals, or we'll guide you to use something better.
02Are you a dev shop, or consultants?+
No, we sell three products we call 'Trades', each with their own subset of features. Our AI agents and your AI agents are the ones who still do the heavy lifting as we steer them towards best practices that are now clear in the age of AI-assisted software development.
03Do you sign NDAs? How do you handle access?+
Yes. A mutual NDA on the way in is no problem. We work from named engineer accounts with least-privilege scopes, we never reference clients by name without explicit written permission, and we don't publish before/afters of your repo. We remove ourselves from your repos and services on the day the engagement ends.
04How fast can you start?+
Readiness audit kickoff within 48 hours of payment. Work starts very shortly after that. We don't do month-long discovery phases, we have AI for that.
05We have a Senior Engineer. Do we still need the Foreman?+
Plenty of teams could use an on-demand injection of technical talent who can fill in the gaps as-needed. Let your current engineers focus on what they're good at, let us do what they don't want to or can't.
