I bet he could do it in a week and it would be better than systemd in at least one regard: actually booting no matter what. Maybe the next time systemd developers break things again, which is just a matter of time. In the meantime you want to take a look at my little init script that implements the basics of what an init system should do[1]. You would probably need to hack it to your needs, but since it's 230 lines of *readable* code, that shouldn't be a problem. I also wrote a blog post explaining the process that lad me to that code[2]. Cheers.
