01 / What I bring

The thinking.
The making.
The follow-through.

When your systems don’t talk to each other, or your team spends hours moving information around, I help work out what to change — and build it.

SOFTWARE & OPERATIONS

Less friction.
More flow.

Custom tools, CRM improvements, integrations and automation. I untangle the work between your systems so your people can get on with theirs.

  • Internal tools & customer portals
  • Connected data & workflows
  • Sales & revenue operations
Discuss your systems
APPLIED AI

Intelligence.
With a purpose.

I put AI to work on a real business problem: finding answers, processing information or taking repetitive work off your team’s hands.

  • Knowledge & document workflows
  • AI connected to your own systems
  • Human judgement where it matters

TECHNICAL LEADERSHIP

Your ambition.
A clear direction.

A technical partner who understands the commercial picture. I help you choose what to build, guide the people building it and keep the details connected.

  • Fractional CTO & technical direction
  • Product thinking & practical roadmaps
  • Reviews, decisions & delivery
Talk about technical direction

Different disciplines. One connected mind.

Business fluency.
Technical depth.
Creative instinct.

I’ve worked in sales, customer operations, CRM and design, and delivered projects across global revenue operations. I start by understanding the work people need to do, then build around it.

GLOBAL OPERATIONS

Vodafone Business

Connecting the work
between the teams.

Deal approvals, Salesforce changes, sales compensation and customer onboarding. I worked across sales, finance, legal and technical teams to make complex operations work together. Improvements I delivered are still used at Vodafone Business.

03 / Working with me

Easy to work with.
Serious about the work.

You work directly with me. I listen, challenge what needs challenging, and keep you close to what’s being built.

  1. 01

    Start with the real problem.

    I talk to you and the people doing the work. We agree what needs to change, and what a useful result looks like.

    A clear plan, a clickable demo and a fixed build quote. You can explore the idea before committing to the build.

  3. 03

    Build it together.

    Short cycles, working software and feedback from your team. I test the details and make the trade-offs visible.

  4. 04

    Leave you in control.

    Documentation, training and your source code. I can stay for ongoing support; the work belongs to you.

05 / A little more personally

Richard.You can call me Richie.

Ricsi in Hungarian. Richie in English.

Hungarian roots. Based in Newbury, Berkshire.

I started out close to customers, in sales and service. From there, my work grew into CRM, global operations and the systems behind them. I still think about the person on the other side of the screen.

Today, I bring that experience together with design, custom software and AI. I like being able to understand a problem, build something useful and stay with it until the details feel right.

A few liner notes

Music
Rehearsals, recordings and tours with Cantus Nobilis in Kecskemét. Plenty of time with a guitar, too.
Design
UI, UX and graphic design, including freelance work.
Writing
I also write the Manual For Your Life book series.

If there’s a complicated problem worth solving, I’m interested.

A good conversation is a good start.

What could
work better?

Tell me what’s getting in the way, even if you don’t yet know what to call it. We can work out whether software, AI or a simpler process would help.
