Embedded Fractional CTO
I work alongside founders and delivery leads to own architecture direction, engineering cadence, and technical hiring quality.
What This Solves
Set a coherent technical direction tied to business priorities and avoid expensive reversals.
Install planning, delivery, and escalation standards so execution quality does not depend on heroics.
Coach managers and senior ICs to raise decision quality, accountability, and cross-team alignment.
Improve senior hiring signal and shape the org around future scale, not short-term urgency.
"You do not need a full-time CTO to make full-quality technical decisions."
Proof In Practice
Growing product complexity with no single owner of technical direction.
Founder still carried key technical decisions while team size increased.
How I Work
I operate as part of your leadership team, not as an external advisor who only delivers slide decks.
The engagement blends strategic direction with hands-on operating support where execution is at risk.
The objective is long-term internal strength, not long-term dependence on me.
Typical commitment: one to two days per week
Decision-focused leadership with clear follow-through
Architecture and roadmap alignment with business goals
Cadence design for planning, reviews, and escalation
Hiring and leadership calibration for future scale
