Fractional Architect / CTO
Senior architecture leadership on a monthly retainer, for companies that need a principal architect rather than a full-time hire.
Who it’s for
Startups without a technical co-founder, scale-ups between architects, and companies preparing for due diligence or a major build.
What we do
- Technology strategy and roadmaps tied to business goals
- Architecture reviews and written decision records
- Hiring, interviewing and mentoring engineers
- Vendor selection and build-versus-buy decisions
- Technical due diligence for investors and acquirers
- Guiding agency or offshore teams to deliver quality work
How we approach it
We join your leadership team for a set number of days each month, with priorities agreed and written down. You get decisions documented, risks raised early and an engineering team that gets stronger over time.
Relevant experience
- Engineering lead and manager for cross-functional onshore and offshore teams
- Worked with a CTO to introduce engineering processes that improved team efficiency by 40% over four months
- Hiring, mentoring and succession planning across several organizations
Work led by our principal architect. Client names are withheld under confidentiality agreements.
