Most early teams are one bad architecture decision away from six months of re-work. We embed a principal engineer or fractional CTO who has shipped in your domain — part-time, fully accountable, with a written stake in your outcome.
Build-vs-buy decisions, stack selection, make-or-miss architecture calls before you are locked in. We have seen how these decisions play out in production.
An honest audit of your current system — what will scale, what will break at 10x, and where the hidden liability sits. Written, not verbal.
Interviewing, leveling, and hiring your first senior engineers. We know who to look for because we have been those engineers.
AI platform evaluation, cloud provider diligence, and tooling decisions with the context of someone who has actually run these systems at scale.
On-call runbooks, code review standards, incident protocols, and the documentation culture that separates companies that scale from companies that stall.
Technical due diligence support, investor Q&A, and the plain-language explanations that help non-technical stakeholders make informed decisions.
Ongoing fractional CTO or VP Engineering. Attends standups, joins architecture reviews, and is reachable when the hard call needs to be made.
