Fractional CTO & VP Engineering

Technical leadership and product strategy, in one engagement.

I help enterprise teams ship complex software — from AI/ML platforms to national-scale consumer apps — by running technical delivery and product discovery as a single, accountable function. No hand-offs, no translation layer.

What I bring to an engagement

Most technical consultants stop at delivery. Most product consultants stop at strategy. I run both at once — because the fastest way to build the wrong thing well is to separate the two.

Delivery

Technical Delivery Leadership

Hands-on ownership of engineering delivery — architecture decisions, team structure, release cadence, and production reliability — for teams building complex, client-facing systems.

Strategy

Product & Discovery

Direct client and stakeholder discovery, roadmap definition, and prioritization — run by the same person accountable for shipping it, not handed off after the fact.

Innovation

AI/ML & Applied Innovation

Practical experience shipping AI/ML and computer-vision features into production — from inventory automation to AR-assisted service tooling — grounded in what's deployable, not just what's possible.

How engagements work

Every engagement runs under a standing Master Services Agreement, with scope, timeline, and fees defined per Statement of Work — so we can start small and scale the relationship as trust builds.

1. Initial Call

A no-obligation conversation about what you're building and where the friction is.

2. Statement of Work

Clear scope, deliverables, and fee structure — hourly or fixed, your choice — signed before anything starts.

3. Embedded Delivery

I work inside your team's cadence and tools, reporting on your terms, not mine.
