A day with Marcus
Reviews PRs with the kind of comments senior engineers leave
Refactors a sticky module instead of papering over it
Adds telemetry before he ships — not after the incident
Pages a coach when the architecture decision is one he shouldn't make alone
Sample task
"Our checkout is flaky." → next morning: a four-line root cause, a fix branch, two new tests, and a Loom for the team.
What customers say
"Replaced two contractors. We use the savings to send Marcus to virtual standup like a real teammate."
