Frequently Asked Questions
A Fractional CTO is a senior technology leader who provides strategic guidance and expertise to companies on a part-time or project basis. This arrangement gives businesses access to high-level technical leadership without the full-time cost of a traditional CTO.
For startups, a Fractional CTO can provide critical technical leadership during key growth phases. I can help define your technology strategy, make architecture decisions, build and mentor your engineering team, establish development processes, and ensure your technical implementation aligns with your business goals—all while keeping costs manageable.
I have extensive experience in renewable energy, healthcare technology, and B2B/B2C platforms. However, my technical expertise and leadership approach can be applied across various industries. The core principles of building scalable, maintainable software systems remain consistent regardless of the specific domain.
Engagements are tailored to each client's needs, but typically involve a combination of strategic planning sessions, regular check-ins with leadership and development teams, hands-on technical guidance, and ongoing advisory support. I can work on a retainer basis with a set number of hours per month or on a project basis with defined deliverables.
I specialize in modern web and cloud technologies, with particular expertise in TypeScript, Node.js, React, Next.js, Svelte, PostgreSQL, and cloud infrastructure on platforms like DigitalOcean and Vercel. However, my role as a Fractional CTO focuses more on strategic technology decisions rather than specific implementation details.
