Fractional CTO and Technical Consulting for Founders
Senior technical judgement for founders, without hiring a full-time CTO.
Early technical decisions are expensive to undo. Picking the wrong stack, over-building the MVP or trusting an agency without anyone checking the code can cost months.
As a fractional CTO and technical consultant, I help founders make those decisions with confidence: scoping MVPs realistically, reviewing architecture and code, choosing the stack and guiding your developers.

Frequently asked questions
What is a fractional CTO?
A fractional CTO is a senior technical leader who works with you part time, giving you strategic technology guidance and oversight without the cost of a full-time executive.
Can you review code written by another agency?
Yes. Independent code reviews are a common starting point. You receive a clear report on quality, security and risks, with practical next steps.
How is consulting work structured?
Either as a one-off review or as regular monthly sessions, depending on how much support you need. We agree the format on the first call.
