Fractional CTO engagements
Part-time technical leadership — architecture, hiring, roadmap — for founders and small teams.
You don't always need a full-time CTO. You need someone who will review the architecture, sit in on the hard hiring decisions, and give you an honest read on the roadmap. Fractional engagements are monthly, scoped, and cancelable — no multi-year retainers, no deck-ware.
What we deliver
Concrete outcomes — not buzzwords. Here's what a typical engagement looks like.
Architecture and roadmap review
A written take on the current stack, scaling risks, and the next three technical bets — grounded in your business constraints, not industry fashion.
Hiring support
Job ladders, interview design, senior-candidate screens, and compensation benchmarking so your first five engineering hires are the right ones.
Vendor and build/buy decisions
Independent evaluation of SaaS vendors, agency partners, and build-vs-buy calls — backed by a scorecard, not a gut feel.
Board and investor reporting
Technical updates, risk summaries, and roadmap translations for non-technical board members.
Ideal for
- Founders pre-Series-A without technical leadership
- Teams between CTOs
- Boards needing an independent technical read
Outcomes
- Written architecture and hiring plans
- Monthly cadence with async updates
- An executive-level sounding board your team trusts
