FRACTIONAL CTO SERVICES
Your Next Tech Decision Could Cost You $200k and 8 Months.
Or you could ask someone who's made it before.
I've helped 40+ companies navigate the exact crossroads you're at. The wrong platform. The bad hire. The rebuild that wasn't necessary. I've seen what each one costs. Let's make sure you don't pay it.
30 minutes • No pitch • Just clarity on your next move
The math on bad tech decisions is brutal.
average cost of a bad senior engineering hire. Plus 6 months lost.
of platform migrations fail or exceed budget by 2x+.
average time to realize you built the wrong thing.
You can't afford a $350k CTO. You can't afford not to have one.
You feel it every week.
A vendor pitches you on "the platform that will solve everything." You can't tell if it's real or marketing.
Your lead developer says the codebase needs a rewrite. Is that $50k or $500k? You have no idea.
You're hiring engineers, but you can't evaluate their technical skills. You're trusting vibes and references.
Your dev team says "2 weeks" for everything. It's been 3 months on the last "2 week" project.
You read about AI transforming businesses. Your team shrugs. You don't know what questions to ask.
You're not dumb. You built a company. But tech decisions feel like guessing. "Am I the only one who feels this lost?"
I've been the CTO you need.
20+ years in tech. I've led teams of 75+ and built systems monitoring 2,000 sites. Biggest client: $36M/yr.
Unlocked Data Trapped in Off-the-Shelf Tools
- → Years of content and inventory data couldn't be surfaced. Wix and Airtable weren't built for this.
- → Built a custom CMS that turned their data into 950,000 SEO pages.
- → Company went from startup ops to enterprise-grade infrastructure.
Inherited Chaos. Built a Real Engineering Org.
- → Fragmented team. Disjointed initiatives. No shared processes. Codebase was a mess.
- → Unified 75+ engineers under centralized processes and standards.
- → Refactored core systems. Team now ships together instead of around each other.
What a Fractional CTO Actually Does.
The thinking you'd get from a $350k hire. At a price that makes sense for your stage.
Tech Strategy & Roadmap
What to build, what to buy, what to ignore. A clear 90-day plan that your team can actually execute.
Architecture Reviews
Before you commit $100k to a rebuild, let's make sure it's necessary. And if it is, let's scope it right.
Hiring & Team Building
Technical interviews, job descriptions, team structure. Stop hiring based on gut feel.
Vendor Evaluation
Salesforce vs HubSpot. AWS vs Vercel. Build vs buy. I'll cut through the sales pitches.

Let's talk about what's keeping you up at night.
