Music Exclusive

I audited and stabilized an inherited music subscription platform, fixing security and payment issues before launch.

Security fixes and launch-readiness sprint completed.

What the business needed

The incoming codebase had unauthenticated account functions, broken scheduled jobs, and failures in core artist and fan journeys.

What I worked on

  1. 01Fixed account-access, payment, and data-exposure problems found in two security audits.
  2. 02Restored scheduled tasks and checked the main steps artists and fans use.
  3. 03Removed obsolete code and added automated checks for future changes.

KEY DECISIONS

Audit before adding features

Find and close dangerous account and data-access paths before expanding the product.

Leave a safer next change

Consolidate duplicate purchase pages and add continuous checks so the next developer inherits more than a temporary fix.

Checks behind the work

These checks describe the software at the recorded point in the project.

1515 security issues resolvedAcross two audits of the inherited platform.

“Patrick took a complex project with several critical issues and made it launch-ready in under two weeks. His security audit caught vulnerabilities the previous developer missed. He verified every user flow, fixed full-stack bugs, delivered more than originally scoped, explained things clearly, and made the project maintainable going forward. Would hire again without hesitation.”
