Fractional CTO
for Startups.
Senior technical leadership without a full-time hire. I own your architecture and tech decisions, review your team's code, help you hire — and still write code when it matters.
Everything
you get.
A complete, production-ready delivery — not a prototype you'll need to rebuild.
Get startedTechnical architecture
choosing the right stack before you build the wrong thing
Code reviews & quality oversight
keep your codebase clean as it grows
Team hiring & technical interviews
find developers who can actually do the job
Vendor & agency evaluation
I can tell if an agency is building well or cutting corners
AWS/cloud infrastructure
design, cost optimisation, and reliability
Feature development
I still write code, not just talk about it
Sprint planning & roadmap
translate business goals into technical milestones
Security audits
before something goes wrong, not after
On-call for technical decisions
fast answers when you need them
This is
for you if…
If any of these sound like you, we're probably a good fit.
- 01
You're a non-technical founder who needs someone to own the tech side
- 02
You have a dev team but no one's making the big architectural decisions
- 03
You hired an agency and want a second set of eyes on what they're building
- 04
You're scaling and things are starting to break in ways you don't understand
- 05
You need technical leadership but can't justify a full-time CTO salary yet

Common
questions.
Depends on the retainer. Typically 10–20 hours/month for advisory, more for embedded. We define it upfront.
Yes. I've led teams and agencies, done code reviews, run sprints. I work with whatever team structure you have.
Yes. I take on a limited number of tech partnerships at a time to ensure full availability when you need me.
That works too. A focused 2–4 hour architecture review session with a written report is available as a one-off.
