Fractional CTO

The business works. Now let's scale the tech.

You've got a product in market and a small team. A lot of it was built quickly, often with AI, and without a technical lead. It was enough to get customers, but now the same speed is working against you. Small changes take longer than they used to, systems are going down, and the bugs are piling up faster than you can fix them.

This is starting to cost you. Customers are accepting of the early bugs, but they're getting annoyed. You're not sure whether to hire, rewrite, or keep prompting your way through it. A full-time CTO at $250K+ is a decision you're not ready to make, and a generalist engineer won't set the direction.

That's where I help you. I work with earlier-stage software companies as a fractional CTO, putting technical leadership in place while the product is outgrowing how it was built.

Core Services

What changes when someone technical owns the direction?

Growth is Reliable

Your team can ship features without breaking things, and they don't bog down due to technical debt. The software grows with the customer base, and your team can predict bottlenecks before they arrive.

Problems are Caught Early

You rely less on testers (or customers) to report problems. Your engineering team either catches bugs before they reach production, or they know about the issues and can fix them quickly.

You are Secure

Security is a rapidly changing field, and it's difficult to keep up with the latest best practices. You get someone who is up to date on the latest threats and how to protect your data.

Hiring is a Success

You're about to make a first senior hire, or pay someone to rebuild what you have. Both are easy to get wrong from the outside. You get an independent read on what the role actually is, what to buy, and someone in your corner while you decide.

Service Levels

Two ways we can work together

Advisor

$4,000/month

I help you set the direction: what the roadmap should look like, technical concerns that may be missing, and what is reasonable to build in the time you have. You and your team still own the execution. I'm in the room to give advice on important decisions, and I stay close enough to guide the team as they execute.

Best when you want to lead the team, but want a second opinion on key decisions.

Hands-On

$10,000/month

I take responsibility for making the vision happen. That means owning the plan and the execution: driving the technical work, and staying in it until the product operates the way it needs to.

Best when you want to focus on the business side, and delegate responsibility for technology leadership.
