AuthConsult: On-Demand OAuth Implementation Service (Fractional Security Engineering)

A boutique service where senior backend engineers (hired as fractional contractors or full-time team members) implement production OAuth systems for startups over 2-3 weeks. The service delivers a fully integrated OAuth server deployed to the client's infrastructure, complete with documentation, security testing, and a 90-day support period. Clients pay a fixed project fee, not hourly or retainer.

SERVICE

15 weeks • 70% confidence

Value Proposition

Eliminates security risk (experienced engineers do it right first time), compresses 8-week build into 2-3 weeks, and costs 40-60% less than hiring a full-time senior engineer for 3 months. Clients retain full code ownership and can hand off to their team after delivery.

Target Audience

Seed/Series A startups (10-30 engineers) in regulated industries (fintech, healthcare, legal tech) that have raised $1-5M and need OAuth fast but don't have in-house security expertise. Also: agencies and dev shops that want to white-label OAuth implementation for their own clients.

Key Features

  • Fixed 2-3 week delivery timeline with weekly milestone checkpoints
  • OAuth 2.0 + OpenID Connect fully implemented in client's chosen language/framework
  • Security testing included: OWASP Top 10 validation, penetration test report, rate limiting/brute-force testing
  • And more, with full implementation detail...

Tech Stack

Senior backend engineers (Node.js/Python/Go expertise, OAuth/security background) Terraform/CloudFormation (IaC) AWS/GCP/Azure (client deployment targets) OWASP ZAP or Burp Suite Community (security testing)

Original Problem

Developers struggle to implement secure authentication without building OAuth from scratch

Developers waste weeks building custom OAuth implementations or managing complex third-party auth systems, delaying product launches and creating security vulnerabilities. Small teams and startups lack the resources to implement enterprise-grade authentication, forcing them to choose between security risks or expensive managed solutions. Cloudflare's move to democratize OAuth signals this is a critical blocker preventing faster development cycles.
