Technical Audit: measure technical debt, secure and prepare for scale

The problem I solve

Every new feature takes longer than the previous one, the same bugs come back in production, and nobody dares to touch some parts of the code. Before hiring, scaling or rebuilding, you need to know exactly where your codebase stands: what blocks, what is risky, and where to start.

What you get

• ✓Full audit: technical debt, security, performance
• ✓Testing strategy setup (PHPUnit, Jest, Cypress)
• ✓CI/CD pipeline implementation
• ✓-45% critical bugs proven in production

How I work

1. 1

   Review of the existing system

   Code, architecture, dependencies, incident history and interviews with the team.

2. 2

   Measurement

   Technical debt, test coverage, security (OWASP), performance (slow queries, missing indexes, N+1).

3. 3

   Prioritized report

   Every issue ranked by impact and effort, with a concrete action plan.

4. 4

   Implementation (optional)

   PHPUnit, Pest, Jest or Cypress tests, CI/CD pipeline and priority fixes, with your team.

Frequently asked questions

What does the audit report contain?

A summary readable by management, then the technical detail: every finding with its impact, its risk level, the estimated effort and the recommended fix, ranked by priority.

How long does an audit take?

It depends on the size of the codebase. The scope and duration are agreed together at the start, so you get a usable result quickly.

Should I audit before scaling?

Yes, it is the best moment: an audit reveals the bottlenecks (database, cache, architecture) before they become expensive in production.

Can you fix things after the audit?

Yes, on my own or with your team, working remotely from Antananarivo: I can take on the priority fixes and set up tests and CI/CD.
