If your business is past the stage where you can build everything yourself, but not yet ready for a full-time technical hire, you are sitting in a gap that costs you. Decisions get delayed. The wrong tools get chosen. Dev vendors run unsupervised. Technical debt stacks up quietly until it becomes expensive.

I step in as your Fractional CTO: a senior technical leader who handles the decisions, oversight, and strategy your business needs without the full-time cost.

WHAT THIS COVERS

Technical strategy: Choosing the right stack, tools, and vendors for where your business is going, not just where it is today. Architecture decisions you will not need to undo in 18 months.

Vendor and developer oversight: Review of what your developers are building, code quality standards, delivery accountability, and early identification of problems before they become expensive to fix.

AI and automation integration: Defining where AI fits in your product or operations, scoping the work realistically, and overseeing execution so you get working systems instead of stalled pilots.

Hiring and onboarding: Helping you hire the right technical roles, define what they should deliver, and onboard them so they become productive fast.

Process and tooling: Engineering practices, communication structures, and delivery workflows that hold together as your team grows.

ENGAGEMENT FORMAT Monthly retainer, minimum 3 months. Includes async access for questions and decisions throughout the month, a weekly written update, and optional strategy calls.

BACKGROUND 16+ years in software engineering and engineering leadership. 6 years at Oracle Health Sciences building enterprise software for Fortune 100 clients. Engineering leadership roles at fintech and SaaS companies across Europe. AWS Certified (Solutions Architect, Developer, SysOps). TOGAF Enterprise Architect.

WHO THIS IS FOR Founders and CEOs of SMBs with a technical product or tech-dependent operations who need senior technical direction without a full-time hire.
