Shipping it is the easy half.
The systems we build handle money and network infrastructure. That changes what "done" means — a deploy is the start of the operating relationship, not the end of the project.
Every system, every deploy, no exceptions for the small ones.

We confirm before we touch production
Backend changes are described and agreed on before code is written. Database changes are transaction-wrapped with a pre-flight backup and a sanity check — never assumed safe because they looked routine.
We isolate tenants by construction
Where a platform serves more than one operator, credentials, cached state and failure handling are isolated per tenant from the start — not bolted on after the first cross-contamination bug.
We scan before we ship
Images are linted, type-checked and scanned for known vulnerabilities in CI before they reach a registry, let alone a server.
We stay on after launch
Most of what we do happens after the first deploy: monitoring, migrations, incident diagnosis, and the slow accumulation of edge cases that only show up in production.
