When I Help
Your codebase is a bottleneck. Technical debt and architectural decisions are slowing every new feature.
You're shipping slowly because your team lacks hands-on technical direction from someone who codes.
Your infrastructure can't scale with your growth — you need someone to architect and build the solution.
You need to prove your product's technical foundation is solid for investors. I'll build architecture that shows it.
Your developers are blocked on architecture decisions. You need hands-on engineering leadership.

How We Work Together
2 weeks · Fixed scope
The Diagnostic Sprint is a 2-week, fixed-scope engineering audit. I dig into your team structure, codebase, and delivery process hands-on — identifying where chaos is slowing you down, where talent is underutilized, and whether your Gen AI adoption and security practices are built to scale. You leave with a written report and a clear action plan, not a deck full of recommendations nobody acts on.
1–2 days / week · 3-month min
The Fractional Retainer puts a hands-on engineering leader inside your company. I ship alongside your team, develop your strongest engineers, tighten costs, make architecture calls, and own the hard questions around Gen AI adoption and cybersecurity — without the $400K comp package. Up to two concurrent clients.
Most clients start with the Diagnostic Sprint. For founders evaluating a full-time CTO hire, it’s a low-risk way to work together before making that commitment.
