Enterprise Frameworks

Multi-project systems under a single organisation. Shared API layers, centralised auth, unified data models.

Enterprise Frameworks

Architecture that still holds up two years later.

The build

The hardest engineering I do isn't a single app, it's the moment a business becomes several apps that need to talk to each other. One organisation, multiple products, shared users, shared data, and no room for the whole thing to turn into spaghetti.

I design these as frameworks, not one-off builds. A shared API layer every product speaks to, one auth system so a user exists once, and unified data models so the reporting adds up. The proof is simple: the architecture still holds up two years later, with new products plugged in rather than bolted on.

Role
Architecture, build, support

Technically engineered.

The decisions that make this build hold up.

  1. 01

    One API layer, many products

    Every product in the organisation talks to the same API layer. New apps don't reinvent the backend, they consume it, which is why adding a product takes weeks rather than months.

  2. 02

    Centralised auth

    A user exists once across the whole ecosystem. One account, one set of permissions, every platform recognising the same person, whether they're a customer on one app or staff on another.

  3. 03

    Unified data models

    The same entities mean the same thing everywhere, so cross-platform features and reporting don't need translation layers. When the numbers roll up, they agree.

  4. 04

    Built for the second year, not the demo

    Decisions are made for the version of the business two years out. That's the difference between architecture and a pile of features, and it's why these systems don't need rebuilding.
