Senior technical leadership, without the full-time hire.
Fractional CTO services for growth-stage companies that need senior technical leadership but aren't ready for a full-time hire. Architecture, strategic direction, technical risk — helping founders make better technology decisions faster.
Where I add the most leverage.
Architecture & Technical Direction
Defining target-state architecture, evaluating build-vs-buy decisions, and making your technical roadmap legible to the rest of the business.
Risk & Compliance
Regulatory frameworks, vendor integration standards, audit readiness, and the technical work that unlocks regulated markets before it becomes a blocker.
Team & Hiring
Evaluating engineering candidates, structuring your interview process, and providing a senior second opinion before you make an offer.
AI Integration
Helping teams make confident decisions about where and how to adopt AI in their stack. Production experience deploying AI tooling — including MCP servers integrating GitHub, Jira, Confluence, and Slack — and helping teams build AI-assisted development workflows that actually improve velocity.
