Fractional CTO Leadership
One principal accountable for strategy, architecture and delivery.
I embed as your fractional CTO: owning technical direction, turning AI opportunity into a commercial roadmap, and governing delivery against a real risk framework — with the practice supplying specialist depth and engineering capacity. Executive oversight from me; delivery power from the bench, without a full-time hire.

FAQ
Common questions
How much time does a fractional CTO commit?
Engagements typically run one to three days a week, scaled to what the business needs. Enough to lead and be accountable, without the cost of a full-time executive.
When should we hire a fractional CTO instead of a full-time one?
When you need senior technical leadership now but the role (or the runway) cannot yet justify a full-time executive. A fractional CTO also helps you define and later hire the permanent one.
