CTO-as-a-Service
Technical leadership without the full-time cost
Not every company needs a full-time CTO, but every company needs technical leadership. I provide strategic guidance, architecture decisions, and team mentoring on a fractional basis.
What's Included
Every project is different, but here's what you can typically expect.
Technical Strategy
Roadmap planning, build vs. buy decisions, technology evaluation. Strategic thinking, not just coding.
Architecture Reviews
Is your architecture ready to scale? I'll review and identify issues before they become emergencies.
Team Building & Hiring
Help writing job descriptions, screening candidates, conducting technical interviews. Build the right team.
Developer Mentoring
Code reviews, best practices, career guidance. Level up your existing team.
Vendor Evaluation
Evaluating agencies, tools, and platforms. Cut through the sales pitches to find what actually fits.
Investor & Board Communication
Translating technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders. Due diligence support.
Common Use Cases
